Flaxseeds
Considered a “functional food,” flaxseeds bring a myriad of health benefits to the table. Beyond their protein content, flaxseeds contain essential omega-3 fats, antioxidants, and fiber.
Research funded by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health explores the potential of flaxseeds in improving metabolic syndrome, which is linked to diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. The fiber in flaxseeds supports a healthy gut, positively impacting metabolic health and protecting against obesity. [2]
Beyond metabolism, flaxseeds show promise in addressing conditions such as arthritis, autoimmune diseases, cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, neurological disorders, and osteoporosis. By adding flaxseeds to your diet, you not only boost metabolism but also contribute to overall well-being. [3]
