Flaxseed oil is made from flax seeds by grinding and pressing them. The result is a golden-yellow product with a mild, nutty flavor.
Flaxseed oil is used in a variety of areas – cooking, medicine, cosmetology, and all this thanks to its unique properties.
Benefits of flaxseed oil
Flaxseed oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
Scientists have found that flaxseed oil reduces inflammation, protects heart health and improves gut health.
In addition, it has a beneficial effect on the condition of hair and skin.
How much oil can you eat per day
Remember that this product is very high in calories, so you should consume it in moderation.
The daily norm for vegetable oils is 1-2 tablespoons. It is recommended that it is not the same oil, but different ones, for example, linseed and olive.
In what form to use flaxseed oil
Flaxseed oil is recommended for use as a dressing for salads and vegetable dishes.
The main thing is not to heat the product.
Due to high-temperature processing, its composition changes, which is why the oil can harm the body's cells.
Another word of caution for those who want to appreciate the full benefits of flaxseed oil: do not eat it on an empty stomach, as this puts a lot of strain on the gallbladder.
