Not all flaxseed is created equal.
When it comes to flaxseed, nobody can compete with the quality or nutritional value found in our MeadowPure® line of flaxseed ingredients.
Whether you're looking to enhance your project with flaxseed's powerful antioxidant benefits or its abundance of essential Omega-3 fatty acids, our MeadowPure line of flaxseed delivers the nutritional and functional requirements your application demands.
MeadowPure® Process
MeadowPure is a patented seed selection and cleaning process found exclusively at Glanbia Nutritionals. First, we work with contract farmers to select flaxseed that's superior in color, uniformity and flavor. The seeds are then processed using proprietary patented technology that protects the integrity of the flaxseed during all stages of production. The result is a superior flaxseed that remains stable under a wide variety of food processing, distribution and handling conditions for up to two years after the milling of the seed. The full nutritional value of flaxseed is delivered where it's intended—in the food products that reach consumers.
