Flax Seeds are nutrient-rich seeds from the Linum usitatissimum plant, valued for their mild, nutty flavor and impressive nutritional profile. They are well-known for being high in omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, and antioxidants, making them a staple in health-focused cooking.

These seeds are easy to incorporate into everyday foods. They can be sprinkled over yogurt, oatmeal, or salads, blended into smoothies, or added to breads, muffins, and energy bars. In vegan baking, ground flax seeds are commonly used as an egg substitute due to their natural binding properties.

Flax seeds are also appreciated for their potential health benefits, including supporting digestion and contributing to overall heart health.
