Hello, Flaxseed!

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011

FlaxseedThat’s right, Gillco is now the exclusive distributor for Glanbia’s flaxseed ingredients!

Flaxseed is packed with powerful antioxidants and an abundance of essential Omega-3 fatty acids that deliver the nutritional and functional requirements your application demands. Our unique, organic and natural flaxseed selection provides many trans fat-free, gluten-free and kosher certified options for your food, beverage and supplement products.

Buyer beware, not all flaxseed is created equal! Glanbia’s flaxseed has been selected with patented methods to ensure superior color, uniformity and flavor. Proprietary technology is then used to process the flaxseed, which protects its integrity during all stages of production. The result is a superior flaxseed that remains stable under a wide variety of food processing conditions for up to two years after the milling of the seed.

Use flaxseed to add valuable health benefits and functional qualities to your products. Here are some ideas to get you started:

  • - Replace Xanthan Gum with a 100% natural alternative from our OptiSol line of flaxseed products.
  • - Retain moisture, reduce the rate of staling, and increase the yield in baked goods.
  • - Increase flexibility, eliminate cracking, and reduce the rate of staling in tortillas.
  • - Add flaxseed to snack bars, cereals, frozen waffles, pizza dough and beverages to increase your fiber and protein claim.
