Linseeds are a good source of fibre and omega 3 fatty acids. They have anti-cancer effects and may help manage menopausal symptoms. They can prevent and relieve constipation as well as soothe digestion.

One tablespoon of linseeds will keep the bowel regular and meet your body's Omega 3 fat requirements. Linseeds are high in calories and should be eaten sparingly.

Pre-cracked organic linseeds are best and should be kept in the fridge.
