Flax seeds are teensy tiny seeds that come from the flower of the flax plant. They are a little larger than sesame seeds but are nutritional power-houses. They range in color from golden-tan to darker brown, and appear flat and shiny, and have an earthy and nutty flavor. They’re absolutely packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, antioxidants, and cancer-fighting lignans. We only need a few teaspoons of seeds a day to benefit from their healthfulness.
Whole or ground flaxseeds can be used in cooking, but grinding makes their nutrients easier to absorb by our bodies. Because the high oil contents of flax make the ground flour turn rancid so quickly (in as little as a week!), it’s best to buy whole seeds, store them in the fridge, and grind just what you need for a recipe. These can be easily ground in a spice grinder.
Flax seeds are packed with many health benefits. Here are some of its top-class benefits;

Flax seeds are good sources of many nutrients. Their health benefits are mainly due to their content of omega-3 fats, lignans, and fiber.
