FLAX |
It is a food and fiber crop cultivated in cooler regions of the
world. The textiles made from flax are known in the Western countries as linen,
and traditionally used for bed sheets, underclothes, and table linen. The oil
is known as linseed oil. In addition to referring to the plant itself, the word
"flax" may refer to the unspun fibers of the flax plant.
Flax seeds have been consumed for at least 6,000 years, making them
one of the world’s first cultivated superfoods. What does flax seed do for you
that makes it one of the most popular “super foods” Flax seeds contain
anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids (although not the same type that fish,
such as salmon, do) along with antioxidant substances called lignans that help
promote hormonal balance in addition to several other benefits of flax seed.
Benefits of flax seed include helping improve digestion, skin,
cardiovascular health, cholesterol and hormone balance while fighting cancer
and even sugar cravings — and that’s just the beginning!
Flax seeds, sometimes called lin seeds, are small, brown, tan or
golden-colored seeds. In fact, linseed or “flax seed” are different names for
the same seed. Flax seeds are a great source of dietary fiber; minerals like
manganese, thiamine and magnesium; and plant-based protein.
Flax is one of the richest sources of plant-based omega-3 fatty
acids, called alpha-linolenic acid (or ALA), in the world. Another
unique fact about flax seeds is that they are the No. 1 source of lignans in the
human diets.
Flax seeds can be eaten as whole/ unground seeds but are even more
beneficial when sprouted and ground into flax seed meal. Grinding flax helps you
absorb both types of fiber it contains, along you to take advantage of even
more of the benefits of flax seed. Whole flax seeds will pass right through your
body without being digested, which means you will not receive many of the
inherent benefits!
