What Is Brown Linseed/Flaxseed?

Linseeds (also known as Flaxseeds) generally come in two varieties, brown linseed and golden linseed, which are both as colourful as the name suggests. They differ very little, if at all, in composition, however, the Golden variety are certainly more flavourful. Both types are a great source of wheat free fibre and (particularly in their ground form), are a great vegetarian source of the Omega 3 essential fatty acid, Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA). Our bodies can't make ALA, so it is essential that we get them from our diet and linseed are an easy way of increasing your intake.


Why Should I Get Brown Linseed/Flaxseed ?

Linseed also promote bowel movement by increasing the water content. This is especially important as most of us don't eat the recommended amount of fibre, but adding linseed to your diet is an easy, convenient way of increasing your intake. Start with a teaspoon, and increase in size slowly until you're having 1-2 tablespoons, spread throughout the day.
