EXTRUDED GROUND FLAX

BULK

Extruded ground flax is a form of flaxseed that has been ground and then processed through controlled extrusion (heat and pressure). This process significantly improves the digestibility and bioavailability of the nutrients in the seed, especially omega-3 fatty acids (ALA), fiber, and plant-based proteins.

Unlike whole flax, which has a hard outer shell that limits nutrient absorption, extruded ground flax allows animals to fully benefit from the essential fatty acids, promoting a shiny coat, healthy skin, and overall growth and development. The heat and pressure applied during extrusion also help neutralize certain naturally occurring antinutritional factors in flax while improving the stability and preservation of omega-3s.

This form of flax is particularly suitable for sensitive or hard-to-feed animals, as it is easy to digest and simple to include in daily rations for horses, dogs, poultry, and other animals.

In summary, extruded ground flax:

• Provides optimal digestibility and nutrient absorption
• Is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and plant-based proteins
• Supports healthy skin, coat, and overall development
• Is stable, easy to store, and convenient to include in daily feed
• Suitable for a wide variety of animals

It is the most effective form of flax for fully harnessing the nutritional benefits of this natural seed.
