The Benefits of Flax Seed
Flaxseeds are one of the most healthiest foods, as it supplies a number of essential nutrients, like lignans and essential fatty acids. Studies have shown flaxseed to be beneficial for a number of reasons. Because they are high in essential fatty acids like omega-3s and omega-9s, flaxseed may boost cognition and help to protect the brain.†
They are also a fantastic source of dietary fiber, which can help to keep your digestion regular – flushing out toxins and excess fats out of the body. Because flaxseeds contain both soluble and insoluble fiber, it can also help keep your gut microbiome (the good and bad bacteria in the gut) balanced.†
Did you know that one tablespoon of organic flaxseed powder contains two grams of protein? This good amount of protein, combined with its fiber content, makes flaxseed the perfect option to help you feel full and satisfied.†
A study from the journal Hypertension found that daily linoleic acid (found in flaxseed) is associated with lower systolic blood pressure and a reduced risk of hypertention.†
