Flax seeds are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids (healthy anti-inflammatory fats), but they also are a force in their own right for a number of health issues. They are shown to have potential to reduce tumor growth in breast cancer, improve diabetic symptoms (fasting blood sugar, triglycerides, cholesterol, and A1C levels), treat constipation, and potentially manage blood pressure even better than some pharmaceuticals (resulting in fewer strokes and less heart disease).
But how does one regularly incorporate flax seeds into their diet? Some people use the roasted seeds as a digestive aid after their dinner, and others start out the day with them in a blended smoothie. Whether you eat them or drink them, they add a considerable nutrilicious impact to your life – highly recommended!
