There has been a health push for people to eat more omega fatty acids. You can eat fish and take fish oil pills, but another option is looking at flax seed. Flax seeds produce oil that is known as flax seed oil or linseed oil. Linseed oil has been used for years in paints, furniture polish, and even linoleum flooring, but interest is beginning to form around this seeds health benefits.

Flax can be used similar to grains but technically it isn't a grain. It can be ground into flour or left whole to create a whole grain bread. The great thing about flax seeds is they can be kept for months and keep their nutritional integrity. Ground flax is only good for a short amoutn of time, because the oil can go rancid quickly. For making your own flour the best option is to have a grain mill.

Flax has a high protein compared to wheat and is higher in omega 3 fatty acid. Omega fatty acids are very important for our bodies. It is believed that omega 3s help our overall health, fight against cancer, and protects our hearts. If you want to learn more about the health benefits a good read is The Healing Power Of Flax.

This book makes very a very compelling argument about flax’s health benefits.

You can look into flax seed supplements if you don't want to get a grain mill to make your own flax seed oils.

Or you can easily find pre ground flax seed also but this should be stored in the refrigerator to keep the oils from going rancid as quickly as they will if they are stored in the cupboard.
