Flax Seed Oil

There has been a health push for people to eat more omega fatty acids. One way to do this is eating fish and taking fish oils pills but another option is flax seed. Flax seeds create an oil known as flax seed / linseed oil. Linseed oil has been used for many years for linoleum flooring, paints, and furniture polish, and now more recently we are finding it's health benefits.

Flax can be used similar to grains but technically it isn't a grain. It can be left whole to make a whole grain bread, or it can be ground up into a flour. Whole flax seeds can be kept around for months keeping their nutritional integrity. Ground flax is really only good for a short amount of time because the oils in the seed can go rancid quickly. So having a grain mill and making your own flour may be the best option for optimal nutrition.

Flax contains a high amount of protein and omega 3 fatty acids than wheat. The omega fatty acids are incredibly important for our bodies. It is believed that omega 3s help our overall health, fight against cancer, and protects our hearts. You can learn more about the health benefits of flax by reading The Healing Power Of Flax. This book makes very a very compelling argument about flax’s health benefits.

You can look into flax seed supplements if you don't want to get a grain mill to make your own flax seed oils.

If you wish to purchase pre ground flax seed you will need to keep them in the refrigerator to keep them from going rancid.
