Flaxseed has a pleasant,
nutty flavor and is rich in dietary fiber and lignans, vitamins, minerals, and
are very high in essential fatty acids — a natural choice for those revising
their diets for health and quality of life!
Studies shows that
omega-3’s may reduce the rate of blood clotting and therefore the likelihood of
heart disease and stroke. Experts know that these fatty acids aid the proper
development of the brain and vision in babies. Scientists also are studying
their role in other disease prevention- including hypertension, cancer,
inflammatory and immune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis.
Ground flax seed provides
more nutritional benefits than does whole seed. That’s because flax seeds are
very hard, making them difficult to crack, even with careful chewing. Get into
the habit of grinding flax seeds over every meal to enjoy their many
nutritional benefits.
