Flaxseeds are tiny amber or brown seeds that have a nutty and distinct flavor. They are obtained from the flax plant, whose fiber is used to produce the ultra-comfortable linen clothes. They are also known as linseeds and have been used for thousands of years in the Middle East. The scientific name of these miniature seeds is Linum usitatissimum, which means “the most useful”. Flaxseeds were mostly used to treat animals suffering from gut problems and infections. But due to high omega-3 fatty acid and dietary fiber content, humans started consuming flaxseeds in various forms as a remedy for various health issues such as constipation, inflammation, osteoporosis, etc. Take a look at the flaxseed nutrition table to understand why flaxseeds are useful for you.
