how to eat flax seeds
Flax seed, though small, is packed full of nutrition. An excellent source of essential fatty acids, flax seed has a nice nutty and toasted flavor. The benefits of flax seed include improved heart health, improved regularity and potential protection from certain types of cancer.
Small flax seeds are the perfect size for adding to your food when whole. Make sure you chew the seeds thoroughly.
Flax seed gives your bowl a fresh, nutty flavor. Try adding some fresh berries in to complement the added flavor.
Nuts are often a nice addition to a salad, and flax seed can give the same flavor effect. Dark greens like spinach taste especially good with flax.
Keep flax seed in a dark container in refrigerator. In liquid form, flax seed oil will spoil quickly so store in refrigerator and use quickly.
