About Flaxseed oil
Flaxseed oil, derived from the seeds of the flax plant, is renowned for its impressive nutritional profile and versatile uses. This plant-based oil is a rich source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid, which supports heart health, brain function, and inflammation reduction. It also provides lignans, compounds with antioxidant properties that may promote hormonal balance. Flaxseed oil's subtle, nutty flavor makes it a popular addition to smoothies, salad dressings, and dips, particularly in vegetarian and health-focused cuisines. Originating from regions like Egypt and Asia, where flax was first cultivated, this oil has grown in global popularity for its wellness benefits. While flaxseed oil should never be used for cooking due to its low smoke point, it is best consumed raw to preserve its nutrients. Moderation is key, as excessive consumption may lead to digestive discomfort or an imbalance in dietary fats.
