USES & BENEFITS

Flax may also be beneficial for menopausal women and assists with regulating menstruation
Flax seed is high in Omega 3 (ALA) which prevents heart disease, lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, improves memory function and promotes healthy skin and hair
The high levels of mucilage gum in flax seeds can also increase nutrient intake, by slowing the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine
Flax seeds are a good source of natural fibre which helps to reduce inflammation and lower cholesterol as well as promote digestive health by maintaining healthy gut bacteria
Assists with detoxification and sugar cravings
With ample levels of magnesium, Flax seed helps to regulate calcium and potassium levels in the body as well as assist with heart health, increased energy, calming nerves and aiding in digestion

WARNINGS
Please note that the body cannot absorb the nutrients from the seeds when whole: they should be ground into a flour, sprouted or taken in an oil form to ensure that nutrients are absorbed by the body.
When baking with flax seed powder, the temperature should not exceed 150c so that the ALA remains stable.
