Oleofarm Ground Flax Seeds 200g

Ground flax is an oil plant that is rich in essential fatty acids (essential unsaturated fatty acids) that are valuable for health. We also find phytoestrogens (i.e. flax lignans, which have a similar structure and properties to estrogens), dietary fiber, protein, phytosterols, vitamins (E and B), minerals (magnesium, iron, zinc), lignans, lecithin, flavonoids, organic acids, enzymes and mucous compounds.

All this means that ground flax is used in the daily diet as a rich source of fiber and ingredients that support the functioning of the entire body.

Although ground flax is most often talked about in the context of protecting the digestive system, it is worth knowing that it has many more health-promoting properties:

• Prevention of heart disease and hypertension ground flax is rich in essential fatty acids (EFAs), which help maintain optimal cholesterol levels
• Support for hormonal balance is possible thanks to the content of phytoestrogens
• Supporting the digestive system Ground flax contains mucous compounds that protect the mucous membranes of the esophagus, duodenum and stomach. It is also helpful in hyperacidity, stomach and duodenal ulcers, flatulence and intestinal peristalsis disorders. The prussic acid contained in it also helps reduce harmful intestinal bacteria

How to use:

Thanks to its convenient form, you can add ground flax to muesli, salads, sandwiches, soups, sauces, cocktails, breakfast cereals or oatmeal. You can also pour one teaspoon of ground flax into 3/4 cup of warm water and wait a few minutes, stirring frequently. The mixture prepared in this way should be consumed 2-3 times a day with the addition of milk, fruit, yogurt, juices or honey. Due to the fact that flax is rich in dietary fiber, it should be introduced into the diet gradually, starting with one teaspoon. You should not consume more than three tablespoons of ground flax a day. The great advantage of this product is its delicate taste and smell, which is why it does not change the taste of dishes.
