Flax Oil is the Oil derived from crushing Flax Seeds and it is highly recommended by almost every other guy for various health related purposes. But in most cases people just don't know what they are getting the benefits for and even if they need it. So today I will be quoting down the actual benefits of Flax Oil and if you actually need to take Flax Oil or Flax Seed.
So What is Flax Oil?
Flax Oil as the name suggests is made from ground and pressed Flax Seeds. It was traditionally used as Laxatives and for healing wounds but nowadays it is a hit product for various health related issues.
Flax Oil contains Alpha-linolenic acid which is an Omega 3 fatty Acid,
Linoleic acid which is an Omega 6 Fatty Acid,
Oleic acid which is an Omega 9 Fatty Acid,
Fiber, Lignans, Glycosides, Peptides and many more substances and it is pretty clear from the first three components that these are substances that may decrease the Cholesterol Levels in our Blood.
Apart from the usual decrease in Cholesterol Levels they also serve a lot of other purposes like
Reduced Inflammation
Flax Seeds contains Omega 3 fatty acids which very actively used as a deterrent towards Inflammation. But at the same time it is also noted by several people that the effects of Flax Seeds depend on a person to person basis and I feel like it works better on Obese People as I eat this regularly and I really feel great.
Promoting Heart Health
Heart is a key organ of our body and taking care of it matters a lot. But in our modern days we have something called Cholestrol which really clogs arteries and cause a lot of stress in the Heart. So Flax Oil just unclogging those Arteries make it easier for the Heart.
Improves Your Stomach
This is something I am not so sure of as I eat Flax Seeds every single day and even then I do get some Stomach Issues every now and then. So I am not sure how that helps in improving your Stomach, but if I have to speculate it must be the fact that Flax Seeds puff up when they come in contact with water, so chances are they regulate the Acidity levels in the stomach.
Are Their Any Side Effects
Now almost everything in life has some side effects and Flax Oil is also one of them, but it is not that severe where if you take more than the required amount of Flax Oil every day then you may face some Diarrhea and some Stomach Discomfort.
Anyways Flax Seeds are good for us so there is no harm in trying it out in your daily life and see if your Life improves in any way.
