Flax is a very popular seed in the world of medicine and natural health since it has many benefits and advantages for the health and beauty. It stands out as extra support to lose weight, improves digestion and blood glucose control and blood cholesterol. It has high content of essential fatty acids, contains two essential elements that the body needs but is unable to produce: linolenic acid (omega 3) and linoleic (omega 6). In addition, it regenerates the intestinal flora and is a good complement to alleviate irritable bowel syndrome by the use of drugs. It also contains phyto-estrogens, plant compounds that produce the effects of estrogens (female hormones), rich in protein and vitamins like A, B, D and E.

Flaxseed can be used in salads, breads, smoothies, drinks, etc. Here are other ways to consume and have benefits from it.

    Flaxseed is getting a lot more popular, and for good reason apaprently. I wouldn’t suggest, however, getting the ground flaxseed in bulk at the store. What happens is once you grind the seed it begins to lose its properties, so if you’re going to buy flax seed in bulk at the store, buy the whole seed and grind at home.
