Dear Readers:
I love trying new supplements, vitamins and delicious additives to my food to be the healthiest mama I can be. So, when I make smoothies, I love to add flax seeds to give the fruit and nut milk mix some oomph.I have used other kinds of flax in my cooking and baking and love adding this super food to yogurt, and other delicious dishes. Yum! And the benefits of flax? Amazing. So affordable, crunchy and fun to eat. An easy add for great health!
From the company eSutra: "The benefits of Flax seed include helping heart disease and lowering cholesterol. Its high content of alpha linoleic acids has made the ancient flax seed become our modern miracle food. Alpha linoleic acid is a type of omega 3 fatty acid, similar to those found in fish such as salmon. Benefits of flax seed as shown in many studies include lowering total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) levels. Grind flaxseeds in a coffee or seed grinder in order to enhance their digestibility and therefore their nutritional value. If adding ground flaxseeds to a cooked cereal or grain dish, do so at the end of cooking since the soluble fiber in the flaxseeds can thicken liquids if left too long. Sprinkle ground flaxseeds onto your hot or cold cereal; add flaxseeds to your homemade muffin, cookie or bread recipe. To pump up the nutritional volume of your breakfast shake, add ground flaxseeds. To give cooked vegetables a nuttier flavor, sprinkle some ground flaxseeds on top of them. You can even add a tablespoon of flaxseed oil to smoothies to give a delicious treat a fiber boost!
