Lotus leaf may call to mind the beautiful water lily that lives in the waters of Asia…opening its petals to greet each new day. The lotus flower has decorated pottery, paintings and religious artifacts across the world, and has been making an appearance in the written word for millennia.

Its cousin, the Nelumbo Nucifera, or Sacred Lotus, also known as Chinese arrowroot and Egyptian bean, is an entirely edible plant – from the petals to the seeds.

Ancient cultures in Asia and the Middle East have been consuming the whole plant for more than 5,000 years, and without any adverse side effects

Active Ingredient:

Nuciferine is an alkaloid found within the plants Nymphaea caerulea and Nelumbo nucifera, also is the main lipid-lowering active ingredients in the lotus leaf. It’s extracted from dry grinding lotus leaf by a series of methods such as adopting the cellulase pretreatment, dilute hydrochloric acid extraction, ultrasonic assisted extraction and chloroform extraction.

Flaxseed Extract Powder: Flaxseed overview

Flaxseed overview information

Flaxseed( Flaxseed Extract, FLax Seed Powder, Flax Seed Extract, Flax Seed Supplement, Lignans, Flaxseed Oil)  is the seed from the plant Linum usitatissimum. The seed or the seed oil is used to make medicine. The information on this page concerns medicine made from the SEED only. There is a separate listing for flaxseed OIL.

People use flaxseed for many conditions related to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including ongoing constipation, colon damage due to overuse of laxatives, diarrhea, inflammation of the lining of the large intestine (diverticulitis), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or irritable colon, sores in the lining of the large intestine (ulcerative colitis), inflammation of the lining of the stomach (gastritis), and inflammation of the small intestine (enteritis).

Flaxseed is also used for disorders of the heart and blood vessels, including high cholesterol, “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis), high blood pressure(hypertension), and coronary artery disease.

Flaxseed is also used for acne, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), kidneyproblems in people with a disease called systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE),symptoms of menopause, and breast pain. It is also used for diabetes, obesity and weight loss, HIV/AIDS, depression, bladder infections, malaria, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Other uses include treatment of sore throat, upper respiratory tract infections (URTI), and cough.

Some people use flaxseed to lower their risk of getting weak bones (osteoporosis) and to protect against breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer.

Flaxseed is sometimes applied to the skin for acne, burns, boils, eczema, psoriasis, and to soothe inflammation.

How does it work?

Flaxseed is a good source of dietary fiber and omega-3 fatty acids. The fiber in flaxseed is found primarily in the seed coat. Taken before a meal, flaxseed fiber seems to make people feel less hungry, so that they might eat less food. Researchers believe this fiber binds with cholesterol in the intestine and prevents it from being absorbed. Flaxseed also seems to make platelets, the blood cells involved in clotting, less sticky. Overall, flaxseed’s effects on cholesterol and blood clotting may lower the risk of “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis).

Lignans CAS:148244-82-0

Flaxseed is sometimes tried for cancer because it is broken down by the body into chemicals called “lignans.” Lignans are similar to the female hormone estrogen - so similar, in fact, that they compete with estrogen for a part in certain chemical reactions. As a result, natural estrogens seem to become less powerful in the body. Some researchers believe that lignans may be able to slow down the progress of certain breast cancers and other types of cancers that need estrogen to thrive. 

For systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), flaxseed is thought to improve kidney function by decreasing the thickness of blood, reducing cholesterol levels, and reducing swelling.
