There is a seed that is full of benefits, and many cannot even imagine how important it is to use it in our food intake, of course as I mentioned earlier all with balance and good judgment works better.

Flaxseed oil or flax is also appreciated in vegetarian diets and / or vegan, as it is the main source of plant omega acids essential to the body.

Many studies indicate that 40% of flaxseed dietary fiber consists of a third party which is soluble fiber and insoluble fiber rest. Both are important for maintaining a healthy digestive system by promoting bowel movement (This is especially beneficial for you if you are among the millions of people who suffer from constipation).

Many pharmaceutical companies do not want you to be educated as ignorance gives them a lot of money. It is very funny even in commercials, they say the site effects of the drugs they sell, wish in many cases can be even worse than the disease itself.

Let me ask you a question have you ever seen a TV ad talking about the negative site effects of any kind of fruit or vegetable or in this case any of the millions of seeds good for our health?
Going back to the Flaxseed oil seeds, what is the way to consume them?

The best way to take them it is to ground them. This is because the oil oxidizes rapidly, due to its high percentage of unsaturated fats, and whole flaxseed is too hard for the body to take it. It's best to buy whole flaxseed and grind it at home, so we know for sure the quality and quantity consumed.
You will find that It's easy to add ground flaxseed to salads and other foods, or dissolve it in water or juice and drink it on an empty stomach. Ground flaxseed reduces cooking times, as causes brown food faster and is resistant to high temperatures.
