Flaxseeds: Benefits & Uses
Benefits of Flaxseeds:
- Rich in Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Flaxseeds are an excellent plant-based source of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), which supports heart and brain health.
- High in Fiber: Supports digestive health, prevents constipation, and helps regulate blood sugar levels.
- Hormonal Balance: Lignans in flaxseeds can help balance estrogen levels, supporting women's reproductive health.
- Supports Weight Management: The fiber and healthy fats keep you fuller for longer, reducing cravings.
- Improves Skin & Hair Health: The anti-inflammatory properties and nutrients nourish your skin and promote hair growth.
- Lowers Cholesterol: Regular intake may help reduce LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels.
How to Use Flaxseeds:
- Ground Flaxseeds: Add 1–2 teaspoons daily to smoothies, porridge, yogurt, or baked goods.
- Flaxseed Tea: Simmer 1 tbsp of flaxseeds in water for 10 minutes, strain and drink.
- Flaxseed Paste: Mix ground flaxseeds with water to make a natural laxative or face mask.
- Egg Substitute (Vegan): Mix 1 tbsp ground flaxseed with 3 tbsp water and let it sit for 5 minutes—great for baking.
