Research has confirmed what has been known for centuries - flax is an outstanding nutritional food that plays an important role in the pervention and treatment of many chronic illnesses and diseases.
What is not so well known is that flax seeds can be difficult to digest, thus their nutrients poorly absorbed. Flax has natural inhibitors to prevent digestion. This means the seed can be eaten, pass through the body and still grow into a plant. Contrary to popular belief, you cannot overcome this by milling or grinding raw flax seeds.
Sprouting the seed increases it's enzymes and starts the seed on its way to becoming a plant. When the seed begins to sprout the natural inhibitors that protect it from digestion are no longer present.
The seed is biologically activated when it is sprouted. All of the pant proteins, oils, startches and vitamins are now bioavailable for human digestion, resulting in better nutritional absorption. Sprouting is the only way to increase the vitamin, mineral and lignan content of flax and naturally stabilze the Omega-3 and other essential fatty acids.
Milled flax seeds and flax oil are not stable and require special packaging and storage to prevent rancidity. Sprouting creates a stable product which does not require refrigeration or vacuum-sealed packaging. MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax is an extremely potent food source that, when eaten daily, will enhance your digestive, ciculatory, nerve, organ, immune and brain function, as well as provide overall support for the body and protect against disease.
This unique product has patents pending in Canada, the United States and Europe. The innovative technology used by Health 4 All ensures that MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax has active enzymes, resulting in the highest bioavailability of any flax product currently on the market.
Dormant enzymes come alive and are activated only when flax is sprouted.
Enzymes are the nutrients and bilogical catalysts that aid in the elimination of toxins, construction of new tissue, nerve cells, muscle, bone, skin and glandualr tissue.
Every single system of your body from the grain to muscles, nervous system, vascular system, growth, cell reproduction, immunity, antioxidant defense and digestvie systems depend upon enzymes.
Our capacity to produce enzymes is limited and as we age, our body becomes increasingly unable to produce enzymes. This general decline in enzyme activity in our body is a fundamental cause of aging.
Without sufficient enzymes you will begin to suffer from poor digestion, premature aging, joing stiffness and decreased energy levels.
Metabolic enzymes run your body and require fat, proteins and carbohydrates to coninuously make repairs. A shortage of metabolic enzymes can jeopardize your health.
Digestive enzymes help with the assimilation of proteins, carbohydrates and fat. If the food we eat does not provide enzymes (packaged and processed foods have no enzymes) to assist with digestion our body's digestive enzymes must carry the complete load, overburdening them and depleting our limited enzyme resources.
There is no food on the planet higher in enzymes then sprouted seeds. Enzyme rich MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax leads to heightened enzyme activity in the body, and then regeneration of the bloodstream. Consuming food rich in enzymes allows the body's metabolic enzymes to help prevent disease and maintain health rather then aid in digestion.

Omega-3 essential fatty acids are "good fats" you require for healthy cell construction. The human body cannot produce essential fatty acids.
Today's diet is severly lacking in these important Omega-3 essential fatty acids. When we ate animals that grazed naturally, Omega-3 essential fatty acids were radily available. Now that animals are raised on grains it has become more difficult to get Omega-3 essential fatty acids, which are vital for good health.
Recent studies suggest the Omega-3 essential fatty acids in flaxseed may reduce risk factors for conronary heart disease by reducing serum triglycerides and blood pressure.
These healthy fats may also protect against stroke by regulating platelet aggregation and blood clotting. The blood regulating capabilities of Omega-3s (linolenic acid) prevent spontaneous blood clots, caused by an excess of fatty acids from refined polyunsaturated oils.
Omega-3's may be beneficial to not only prevent cardiovascular disease, but also PMS, inflammatory, skin, emotional and mood disorders, as well as supporting early brain development.
Humans evolved on a diet with a ratio of omega-6 fatty acids (O6) to omega-3 essential fatty acids (O3) of 1:1. In modern Western diets this ratio now ranges from 15:1 to 16.7:1. Western diets are considered 'deficient' in O3 fatty acids because they contain excessive amounts of O6 fatty acids.
A very high O6:03 ratio promotes disease, including cardiovascular diesease, cancer, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Increased levels of O3, and thus lowerO6:O3 ratio, exerts suppressive effects on diseases. The benefits from increasing your O3 intake and reducing the O6:O3 ratio are astounding:
Significat decrease in cardiovascular disease, reduced cell proliferation in cancer patients, decreased cancer risk, reduced inflammation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and signaficant improvement in asthma patients.
Sprouted flax is the best plant source of Omega-3 essential fatty acids. Taking just 10 grams (1 tablespoon) of MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax gives you an amazing 2500 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids, adjusting the O6:O3 ratio to 1:6.25. Now that's food for thought!
You've heard the old adage, "you are what you eat". At Health 4 All they believe "You are what you can digest and

They are a science-based company. There product claims are based on their own findings and confirmed by assays from outside third-party laboratories and institutions. They are further backed by years of scientific research, specifically surrounding the health and nutrional benefits of the ingredients in their product formulatons.
While the benefits of raw flax, milled flaxseed and flax oil have been well documented and accepted within the scientific and health community, the benefits of sprouted flax are only now being recognized.
Health 4 All and it's partners are pioneers in this area. Their research has resulted in pending patents specific to the germination, drying and milling of sprouted seeds and grains.
Their unique process stabilizes the essential fatty acids (EFAs) in flax. In shelf stability testing at room temperature, their product showed no sign of rancidity for over four years! Studies confirmed there was no off-flavoring, unheard of with any other milled flax or flax oil product. The germination process also results in increased enzymes, lignans, vitamins and minerals; all of which are maintained throughout drying and milling.
We are extremely proud of our MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax. It is pleasant tasting, easily incorporated into your diet and, best of all, extremely good for you.
If there is one thing that experts agree on it is that DIETS DON'T WORK! And statistics are proving it. One in every two Americans is overweight, and one in every three is obese.
Subjecting yourself to the dieting merry-go-round not only slows down your metabolism, making it increasingly difficult to shed those unwanted pounds, but can also be psychologically devastating.
Good nutrition and exercise are key to a healthy lifestyle. Being overweight is not just about how you look, it's about the impact those extra pounds have on your body. You are more susceptible to diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, stroke, cancers, gall bladder disease, gallstones, depression, poor memory, respiratory problems, immune dysfunction, menstrual irregularities, infertility, complications of pregnancy, osteoarthritis and psychological complications.
Unlike other dietary fats, essential fatty acids (EFAs) are required in the human diet because the body cannot manufacture them from any other substance. Fatty acids are required for maintaining the structure of cell membranes and permeability of the skin. They are raw ingredients in the structure of the eyes, ears, brain, adrenal and sex glands, and are required for proper infant growth and development.
Without an adequate supply of EFAs, our fat-burning potential stops. These essential fatty acids increase the overall amount of oxygen utilized by the cells to produce energy. The more oxygen we transport to our cells, the faster we burn body fat. EFAs increase the body's metabolic rate and insulin efficiency. Unwanted storage of body fat can be greatly reduced by making EFAs our main dietary source of fat.
The North American diet has shown a dramatic decrease in the consumption of Omega-3 essential fatty acids, while the consumption of Omega-6s have increased. Researchers believe that too much of one EFA can interfere with the action ot ht eother, thus decreasing the efficiency with which your body use both.
MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax is an excellent souce of essential fatty acids. The ratio of Omega-3s to Omega-6s is made even better during the sprouting process. Due to a remarkable increase in enzymes, MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax is much more bioavailable, meaning all of the nutrional benefits of flax are digested and absorbed more efficiently by your body.
Comparing MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax to any other flax product is an unfiar comparison. MegaOmega™ Organic Sprouted Flax is superior in every category.
