Product Description

What Is Flaxseed Gum Powder？

Flaxseed gum is a natural, water-soluble Natural Polysaccharide extracted from flaxseeds that functions as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier. It’s a by-product of the flax oil industry and contains both neutral and acidic components, including various sugars and uronic acids. Because of its strong water-holding capacity, gel-like properties, and ability to stabilize emulsions, flaxseed gum is a versatile food additive used in various applications, from food products to cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
