Hi all,
Day ten - time to flax regularly....
No, that was not a typo, I am talking about flaxseeds. They are a powerful source of omega 3 fatty acids, which have anti inflammatory properties and are crucial for heart and blood vessel health. In fact, research has shown that when flaxseeds are added long term to your nutritional intake, it reduces your chances of developing heart disease by a staggering 46 percent, as well as stopping red blood cells from sticking together in blood vessels. In this way, clots are prevented, which could block blood vessels like arteries - leading to strokes.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed on your cereal or salad daily. It is preferable to grind the flaxseed yourself and refrigerate to prevent the flaxseed from going rancid - use it as soon as possible after grinding!....
To your abundant excellent health,
