Abstract: | Indigenous traditional medicines in India use a lot of plant ingredients and their derivatives. Linum usitatissimum L. commonly known as ‘Alsi’ or ‘Tisi’, in India or ‘Flax’ in English, is one such pharmacologically rich plants. Phytochemicals (e.g.: phenolic acids, lignans, and flavonoids) are found naturally in Linum usitatissimum. While scientific data support flaxseed eating, a sizable portion of the public remains uninformed of the advantages and potential uses. The present chapter summarizes the available information on the traditional uses of Linum usitatissimum L. and its pharmacologically active natural constituents. |
