This is the highest quality flaxseed in North America. Grown north of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, NorthernEdge milled flaxseed is grown in mineral-rich soil just south of the pristine Artic. NorthernEdge flaxseed is the highest omega 3 flaxseed available - 60 percent of the fat in the seed is omega 3 alpha linolenic acid. In addition, one serving (two tablespoons) contains almost 300 milligrams of minerals - evenly balanced in calcium, magnesium, and potassium.
