Linseed, brown

Brown organic linseed contains a high proportion of valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids, which make up two thirds of the total fat content of about 30%. Health benefits are attributed to these fatty acids. They ensure brain function, have a positive effect on the cardiovascular system and help our body to fight inflammation better. However, the undisputed health benefit of organic linseed is its effect on digestion. It has a high swelling capacity and thus ensures a beneficial stool volume. The mucilages and oils contained in organic linseed can also make an important contribution to regular digestion. However, it is always important, regardless of whether linseed is consumed for health reasons or purely as food, that it is drunk sufficiently. Otherwise, the hoped-for effect could be reversed and constipation could occur. Organic linseed is also in demand as a pure food. The nutty taste, the crunchy bite and the appetizing grains complement many dishes. The high protein content of linseed is also in demand in vegetarian and vegan cuisine. At over 24%, organic linseed leaves many types of meat and dairy products behind.

Use

In addition to medical use as a digestive aid, linseed is used for envelopes. Flax seed wraps are considered helpful for inflammation, but are no substitute for a doctor’s visit. In the kitchen, on the other hand, linseed is mainly used for taste reasons. The nutty aroma enriches bread, vegetable pots and rice dishes. Linseed tastes good in fruit salads and ensures a healthy protein content in smoothie. The brown seeds enrich salads and soups. Linseed supplements muesli mixtures and is a valuable ingredient in nut bars. Organic linseed can also be used to make sprouts, which in turn can be added to salads and vegetables, on bread or in smoothie.
