Immune Function

The consumption of flax also suggests a positive role on immune function. Immunity refers to the body's natural or acquired resistance to a specific disease. Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) and lignans present in flax are postulated to decrease inflammation and improve immune function, which may have a suggested role in treating autoimmune and inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus nephritits.
