It's hardly surprising that flax seeds have gained superfood status in recent years. These tiny edible seeds of the flax plant supply a wealth of health benefits. But to take full advantage of those perks, there's a "right" way to eat them. We’ll be covering everything you need to know about flaxseed in this video.
1. Improves circulation and reduces risk of osteoporosis
Flaxseed contains a plant-based type of omega-3 fatty acid, which has been linked to improved circulation and anti-inflammatory effects. Research shows that these fats may also help fight osteoporosis, a disease characterised by the reduced density and quality of bone, by reducing the risk of bone fractures.
2. May protect against type 2 diabetes
Flax seeds are one of the best foods when it comes to controlling diabetes. They assist in the management of blood sugar levels, and together with lifestyle changes and medication as needed, they can help diabetics more easily manage their disease.
It’s thought that flaxseeds can improve insulin sensitivity. As they keep blood glucose stable, diabetics should experience fewer major spikes throughout the day. This blood sugar-lowering effect is due to flaxseeds' insoluble fibre content, which slows down the release of sugar into the blood and thus reduces blood sugar.
In one small study, scientists gave people 0 grams, 13 grams, or 26 grams of flaxseed daily for 12 weeks. The participants all had prediabetes. The people in the group who consumed 13 grams of flaxseed a day had lower blood glucose and insulin levels, and improved insulin sensitivity at the end of the study period.
3. May prevent some cancers
Flaxseed is a top source of particularly health-protective antioxidants called polyphenols. These antioxidants are thought to protect against cancer, as well as cell-damaging oxidative stress. Flax is also rich in plant compounds, which means they may have the ability to stop tumours from forming new blood vessels and growing.
One study of more than 6,000 women found that those who regularly ate flaxseeds were up to 18 percent less likely to develop breast cancer. Post-menopausal women seemed to benefit the most. Other small studies suggest that flaxseeds may help lower the risk of prostate cancer in men. Evidence is conflicting, though, so more research is needed before we can confirm the benefits of flaxseed against cancer.
4. It can lower blood pressure
The good omega 3 fats in flaxseed help reduce blood pressure and prevent strokes. In fact, research suggests that thanks to their omega 3 content, flaxseeds can reduce blood pressure as effectively as lifestyle changes such as exercising more, cutting back on salt, or limiting alcohol.
At the end of one 6-month study of 110 people with hypertension, the blood pressure of those who ate 30 grams of milled flaxseed a day was lower than those who were on a placebo. The researchers concluded the blood pressure benefits from eating flaxseed could lead to 50 percent fewer strokes and 30 percent fewer heart attacks. This is incredibly promising news for anyone who is currently dealing with high blood pressure.
5. High in fibre and aids digestion
Flaxseed contains both soluble fibre and insoluble fibre. Soluble fibre helps soften stool, so it can pass through the GI tracts and be eliminated more easily. Insoluble fibre helps stimulate the digestive system to move waste through the gut and promote bowel regularity. The two types of fibre work together to support digestive health, and we need them equally.
We don’t always get enough fibre in today’s world, where many foods are low-fibre and not so great for digestion. Simply sprinkling a tablespoon of flaxseed onto your breakfast may be enough to help keep your body regular.
6. Anti-ageing skin properties
As we age, our skin shrinks and flattens out, losing its bounce. The protein and essential fatty acids found specifically in flaxseed oil can help prevent this happening and stop wrinkles in their tracks. Flaxseed oil applied topically can give the skin a plumper appearance and help to repair the skin’s cells, showing a marked improvement in elasticity, firmness, tone and texture.
Skin that has been nourished with flaxseed oil looks brighter and smoother, with less fine lines and wrinkles. Flaxseed beneficial for the rehydration of dry, itchy skin because the essential fatty acids prevent the skin from drying out and keep it moist. The Antioxidants found in flaxseed oil are highly concentrated; they help the skin to protect against free-radicals and UV rays.
7. May prevent neurodegenerative disease
Flaxseeds are one of the best omega-3 fatty acid sources, which is essential for brain health brain throughout life, from early cognitive development in babies to learning and memory in adults. Brain cells with high levels of omega-3 in their membranes are thought - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

The last month I have been dealing with GERD, and was flummoxed because I eat only vegetables, grains, and fish. No dairy snd no seeds. Acid reflux and abdominal pain sent me to doctor with no conclusive diagnosis. Forgot I had bought a bag of ground flaxseed, and found it today. Acid reflux started. I took a few tablespoons of it it and no more reflux. Abdomen feels better too. I didn’t think it would work that quickly, but it did. Very pleased.

I’ve been putting grounded flax seed in my coffee grounds as it brews through the machine, is there any info with regards to this approach ?
Wow that's interesting! Like a tea method.
I'm no scientist, but if i were you I'd buy some Tea Filters and put the GROUND or powdered flax into the teabag and soak it in your coffee for as long as you are drinking it :)
Only because when the got water passes through the K-CUP or coffee thing (sorry idk) it's such a short period of time so the coffee won't have adequate time to soak up all the nutrients. I have no idea but that's what i would do! Try to nibble on some raw whole flax too! Yummy😍
Makes sense; I drink flax tea.
Flax seeds are good for thyroids or not?
What time of day is best to take flaxseed to Lower my blood sugar and how much should i take per day
It's better in early morning.or just before bed
Have a bathroom near by.
Where can I buy flaxseed?
Grocery store or health food store.
I got memory concentration and focus issues
I think this forget to mention you should go for ground flaxseed as we dont digest the other kinds well so we dont get all of those benefits

I buy whole seed in large amounts then using a blender grin it; then into an opaque container and in the freezer!
@@aarone1777 I buy whole also
I can attest that ground flax seeds have helped me lose weight.
How did it help you lose weight?
@@Imacatmom I think it had something to do with the fact that a couple of tablespoons have the bulk/fiber to help give one's stomach the illusion that it is full, thus causing one to eat less.(I mix the ground flaxseed with two tablespoons of organic apple cider vinegar with half cup water in the mornings)
@@spiritwolfbro Thanks for getting back to me.
THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME BEAUTIFUL ✨ 13
Grammatical errors and a nasal american accent. All very irritative.
Your comment is very foolish. Concentrate in the information.
Voice of narrator is too annoying. Couldn’t listen after about 2 minutes in.
Most irritating voice. Nasal stress.
😂😂😂
It's an epidemic 😷
Close your ears
