Flax seeds are loaded with health benefits. They are full of nutrients and are specially known for their fatty acid content, omega-3 fats, lignans and fiber. They are a great source of ALA fatty acids for vegans and vegetarians. Plant-based ALA fatty acids are proven to have heart health benefits and are linked to a lower risk of stroke. Not only flax seeds healthy and nutritious, they are also very flavourful. I like to sprinkle then over salads, smoothy bowls and fresh fruits.

The recipe below is one of my favorite ways to add flax seeds to my diet.
