Better Than Flax
Recent research has identified Lignans as key nutrients for maintaining optimal health. Only 1 scoop of The Signature Grain™ provides 850 mg of Lignans. Flax contains only 33 mg of Lignans for the same serving size.
The amino acid protein profile of The Signature Grain™ yields 91% protein quality versus only 60% for Flax.Flax has a strong, dominating flavor. The Signature Grain™ has a neutral flavor and its hydrophilic structure lends itself to limitless recipe applications while taking on the delicious flavors of foods in which it is blended or cooked.
Flax contains substances called cyanogens, which are converted in the body into another chemical called Thiocyanate (SCN). High blood concentrations of SCN for prolonged periods of time may have adverse affects on the thyroid function. The Signature Grain™ contains no harmful cyanogens.
Flax also contains vitamin B interrupters that can cause malnutrition. The US government regulates flax consumption to no more than 12% of your total caloric intake. Vegans and others on diets low in protein or sulfur containing amino acids (methionine and cystine) must be very careful consuming flax seed.
The Signature Grain™ absorbs more than 15 times its weight in water and does not require refrigeration. Flax absorbs only 6 times its weight in water and requires refrigeration.
The Signature Grain™ unique soluble fiber forms a gel in the stomach that creates a physical barrier between carbohydrates and the digestive enzymes that break down what you’ve eaten. This process slows the conversion of carbohydrates into sugar.
This slower digestion period keeps your body hydrated longer and lets you fully absorb all of The Signature Grain™’s valuable nutrients thus dramatically increasing your energy and endurance.
Flax has little of these gel forming properties.
