The benefits of flax seed are becoming well known. It is one of the most beneficial foods there is. Flaxseed oil provides an important essential fatty acid, plus antioxidants, protein, minerals and good fiber.
The best way to get the oil, is to eat flax seed with a high oil content. Extracted oil is often rancid and therefore not healthy to consume. There are no bad side effects of the whole flax seed.
Flax oil is a key source of Omega 3 fatty acids that are important for good brain function and calm nerves.
