About Flaxseed
Flaxseed, also known as linseed, is a small, nutrient-packed seed originating from the flax plant, historically cultivated in ancient Egypt and China. Valued for its versatility, it is commonly used in baking, smoothies, and as a topping for salads or yogurt. Flaxseed is a powerhouse of nutrition, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, protein, and lignans—plant compounds that may help reduce inflammation and support heart health. It provides essential nutrients like magnesium, manganese, and B vitamins. Consuming ground flaxseed is recommended over whole seeds for better absorption. While highly nutritious, moderation is key, as excessive intake may interfere with digestion due to its high fiber content. Its mild, nutty flavor pairs well with both sweet and savory dishes, making it a staple ingredient in health-conscious diets worldwide.
