NeutriOne Raw Flax Seeds for Weight Loss Management, High Fiber, Protein, Calcium, Zinc Brown Flax Seeds

The flax plant, also known as (Alsi) (Linum usitatissimum) (Linseed), which grows to a height of about two feet, is the source of flaxseed. It is a member of the Linaceae family and is grown for both its fiber, which is used to make linen yarn and fabric, and its wholesome flaxseed or linseed seeds, which are used to make linseed oil. Due to the advent of synthetic fibers, flax has lost some of its value as a commercial crop for making fiber. However, flaxseed has gained popularity as a health food, and flax is still an important economic crop in a number of nations across the world. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid, and lignans, a group of phytoestrogens, are both abundant in flaxseed. Additionally, it contains significant amounts of protein, fiber, iron, calcium, manganese, thiamin, magnesium, phosphorus, and copper. The seeds can be added whole or ground to salads, morning cereal, smoothies, baked items, and raw or toasted foods. Essential omega-3 fatty acids are “excellent” fats that have been found to have positive impacts on heart health. Plant omega-3s can be found in roughly 1.8 grammes per tablespoon of ground flaxseed. Lignans, have antioxidant and plant estrogenic properties. Compared to other plant diets, flaxseed has 75 to 800 times more lignans. Taking flaxseed regularly may also lower your cholesterol. An increased risk of heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome has been related to blood levels of LDL, or “bad” cholesterol. In a study of menopausal women, the LDL level fell after a year of daily use of 4 tablespoons of ground flaxseed. Fitzpatrick claims that the benefits of the omega-3 ALA, fiber, and lignans in flaxseed work together to decrease cholesterol. Lignans, which are plant components with powerful anti-cancer potential, are abundant in flaxseed. Both the soluble and insoluble fiber found in flaxseed are fermented by the bacteria in your intestines to promote gut health and increase bowel regularity. Insoluble fiber pumps up the bowel, which may prevent constipation and encourage regular bowel movements, but soluble fiber absorbs water in your intestines and slows down digestion, which may help manage blood sugar levels and decrease cholesterol. The lignans content in flaxseeds can contribute to defending the skin from deterioration brought on by the sun and other environmental causes. Additionally, flaxseeds’ omega-3 fatty acids can support healthy, moisturized skin. Additionally, regular use of these oils prevents the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of premature aging. By strengthening the hair follicles, flaxseed gel promotes better and longer hair growth. Flaxseed contains vitamin E, which nourishes the scalp and prevents free radical damage. Moreover, flaxseed can help in reducing joint pain and stiffness.
