Flaxseed

Hi
I've been given a big bag of Flaxseed by my sister. I've heard people talk about it on here but never thought to get some of it.

I put some in my porridge this morning and enjoyed it.

Questions: What health benefits does it bring?

I put flaxseed in my salads, smoothies and oatmeal. I do it for the essential omega fatty oils. That are good for brain health.

Store in fridge

Thanks for your replies.

I think i'll be making it part of my daily nutrition.

Google Jorge's Belly Fat Cure Skinny Muffin. It is a muffin made with flax seed that you microwave in a coffee mug.

i put ground flaxseed in my oatmeal every morning
flaxseed gives you omega 3s, protein, and fiber
