Flax is an ancient crop that was used as a food source as far back as 3000 B.C. Hippocrates wrote of using flaxseed for the relief of abdominal pain. Charlemagne, considered flax so healthy that he passed laws requiring its consumption. Modern day researchers believe that the lignans, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids (EFA's) found in ground flax seed are essential to good health. The body does not produce essential fatty acids (EFA's) i.e. Linolenic acid and Linoleic acid and, as a result, they must be supplied through diet. Ground Flax Seed is rich in EFA's. Un-ground flax seed is not digestible and, as a result, it will not supply the body with the necessary lignans or ALA. To be effective, flax seed must be ground before it is ingested or soaked and dehydrated to make the seeds chewable. For optimum nutrient value, use ground flax seeds instead of flax oil. Flax oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, but it does NOT contain the beneficial lignans and fiber. The lignans and fiber are removed in the production process. Flax seed contains both soluble and insoluble fiber. About one-third of the fiber in flax seed is soluble. Soluble fiber can aid in lowering cholesterol and regulating blood sugar levels. Two-thirds of the fiber in flax seed is insoluble. Insoluble fiber aids digestion by increasing bulk and preventing constipation. These characteristics seem to have a role in reducing incidents of colon cancer. Ground Flax Seed is rich in protein, B vitamins, vitamin E, beta-carotene, calcium, potassium, magnesium, manganese and zinc. Typical ground flax seed intake - 25 to 30 grams / day. Always purchase whole flax seed - Avoid purchasing ground flax seed - its potency may be diminished due to improper handling and storage. Flax seed contains anti-oxidants that keep the oil and pulp fresh within the seed. Flax seed should be kept "whole" until immediately prior to use. Processed foods take energy to digest. Whole foods provide energy and nutrients during and after digestion. Flax seed is easily ground using a Coffee Grinder, Grain Grinder, Blender, Vitamix, etc. Thank you for visiting contact webmaster     Site Map     policy/disclaimer [Monday] January 05, 2009 08:09 PM EDT
