FLAX SEED
Flaxseeds are natural seeds from the flax plant. Flaxseeds are an oilseed just like canola and sunflower are oilseeds. Flaxseeds are one of the few plants that contain significant amounts of Omega-3 fat ( This type of fat is similar to the healthy fat that is found in fatty fish such as salmon.). Flaxseeds are also rich in fiber, ligan, protein, B vitamins, vitamin E, beta-carotene, calcium, potassium, magnesium, manganese, zinc and have unique health benefits. Flaxseed has also been used for food and feed for animals for several thousand years and flaxseed oil has also has been used for cooking for centuries.
Omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential fatty acids: They are necessary for human health but the body can' t make them -- you have to get them through food. Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in fish, such as salmon, tuna, and halibut, other seafood including algae and krill, some plants, and nut oils. Also known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), omega-3 fatty acids play a crucial role in brain function as well as normal growth and development. They have also become popular because they may reduce the risk of heart disease.
Golden Flax Seeds and OMEGA 3 Fatty Acids
The golden omega flax seed from GreatPlainsFlax.com is of the highest purity and quality. Golden flax seeds have the natural properties of fiber, lignans and omega-3 fatty acids that provide preventative and restorative abilities to your diet. These impressive compounds in flax seed are igniting a flurry of research and are the basis of the many flax seed benefits. Thus far, the research has proven that this small and humble seed can be an essential addition to the average diet. Understanding the role of fiber, lignans and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids can provide you with helpful information as you assess your own dietary needs.
Flaxseeds are a wonderful source of so many of the nutrients our bodies need. Flax seeds are 35% oil and 55% of that oil includes the crucial omega-3 fatty acids. Don't forget that both omega-3 and omega-6 are essential oils that should be included in your diet to promote good heart health. Now if you are eating lots of fresh fruits and vegetables you are probably getting an adequate amount of omega-6, but if you are not eating lots of fruit and vegetables then you need to consider eating more for the sake of your good health. I am living proof that what I am saying, is true. I eat four tablespoons of flax ground into powder every day, two tablespoonfuls in the A.M. and 2 spoonfuls in the evening after dinner. I sprinkle the ground flax seed on yogurt, fresh fruit, cereal, but my favorite is on vanilla pudding and ice cream.
Omega-3s are harder to find; they are found mainly in cold-water fish like salmon. So unless you are eating salmon every night for dinner, you're probably not getting enough omega-3s in your diet, and you are missing out on its important health benefits.
This makes flax even more powerful, because it contains approximately twice the amount of omega-3s found in fish oils. Just a quarter of a cup of flax contains 9,000 mg of omega-3s. So flax seed is an ideal way to get your essential fatty acids.
