Flax seeds are nutritional powerhouses. They're absolutely packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, antioxidants, and cancer-fighting lignans.
Flaxseed contains 75 to 800 times more lignans than other plant foods.
We only need a few teaspoons of seeds a day to benefit from their healthfulness.
You can eat them raw, grind them and adding them to salads, soups or to your baking mix.
A 2013 study published in “Hypertension” concluded that flaxseed lowers blood pressure in hypertensive patients.
