Did you know Flax Flaxseed was cultivated in Babylon as early as 3000 BC? That the plant is believed to have originated in Mesopotamia? In fact, flax has been cultivated since the Stone Age. In ancient Greece and Rome, flaxseeds were revered for their health benefits.

In the 8th Century King Charlemagne passed laws requiring the cultivation and consumption of flax, which led to flaxseed becoming popular in Europe for its many uses: culinary, medicinal, and weaving flaxseed fiber into linen. In the 17th century flax was first introduced and planted in Canada. Today Canada is one of the world’s major flax producers.

Modern research backs up the health benefits of flax. Flaxseed is rich in beneficial compounds including ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid), heart-healthy Omega-3 essential fatty acids, plant lignans and both soluble and insoluble fiber.

Indianlife Ancient Grains Organic Flax Wraps are full of the goodness that has made flax a healthy staple throughout history. With 3 grams of quality vegan protein and 2 grams of fiber in each, these wraps are destined to make some history of their own!

January 31 in New York, a U.S. district court judge decided that by March 31.  she will determine whether a landmark suit concerning GMOs will go to trial, according to New York’s Village Voice.

Last March, the Public Patent Foundation filed claims challenging the validity of 23 of Monsanto’s patents on behalf of the Organic Seed Growers and Trade Association (OSGTA) and 82 other farming associations.

This court case seeks to protect US farmers from genetic trespass by Monsanto’s GMO seed, which contaminates both organic and non GMO conventional crops. This contamination occurs naturally from wind and animal activity, leaving small family farms open to abusive lawsuits as they are accused of infringing on Monsanto patents.

These aggressive lawsuits have driven dozens of farmers into bankruptcy. And Monsanto’s reach is worldwide; their seed monopoly now controls the genetics of nearly 90% of corn, soybeans, cotton, canola and sugar beets.

Those targeted include farmers who purchased seeds from Monsanto and then violated their contracts by saving seeds for the next year’s planting. But throughout history, saving seed has been the way farmers, and crop diversity, have survived.

In India, farmer suicides are a tragic result of these predatory practices. In 1998, the World Bank forced India to open its seed sector to global corporations like Cargill, Monsanto and Syngenta. Farm saved seeds were replaced by corporate and GMO seeds, which need fertilizers and pesticides and cannot be saved.

As a result, poor peasant farmers must buy new seeds for every planting season at ever-higher prices, leading to increased poverty and indebtness.

This historic shift from saved seed to corporate seed monopoly also represents a dangerous shift from agricultural biodiversity to monoculture. Monocultures increase the risk of crop failure. For example, in Maharashtra’s Vidharbha region farmer suicides at one point numbered approximately 10 per day. This is also the region with the highest acreage of Monsanto’s GMO Bt cotton.

The farmers who entered the courtroom wanted to ensure the judge knows their survival depends on this lawsuit. Said one, “We’re not asking Monsanto for one penny. We just want justice for our farmers and we want court protection from Monsanto.”

Indianlife is a proud member of the Non-GMO Project. We thank you for standing up for family and organic farmers! Learn more at www.fooddemocracynow.org and www.nongmoproject.org/.

Second to “naan” and now All Organic too!

We LOVE naan. Our famous whole wheat naan is a beloved family recipe, handed down through generations and traditionally baked in hot clay Tandoori ovens.

We’re pleased that you love it too and have made it a best seller!

Now the best is even BETTER. Introducing Indianlife All Organic Whole Wheat Naan. The same incredible, authentic taste our family—and your family— demands with organic certification and all organic peace of mind. So it’s good for you. And good for the earth.

Naan originated in the Northwestern frontier borders of India and Pakistan, but it’s become one of the world’s most popular breads.

Naan is traditionally served hot and brushed with ghee or butter, but our customers keep finding unique new ways to savor it: with gyros, cut into strips for dipping, or heaped with toppings for “naan pizza.”
