So, watch the whole video, stay with me until the end. 7th benefit- Flaxseed can help lower your blood pressure!
A study in the journal Hypertension says that flaxseed is perhaps the food that most helps lower blood pressure. It was a double-blind, randomized study, which is very difficult to do with food. Because people usually notice that something strange is being mixed into their food.
But they managed to disguise the flaxseed in the other ingredients of muffins, sweet cookies. After six months, those who ate the dumplings without flaxseed remained hypertensive. But what about those who ate the muffins with disguised flaxseed.
There was a drop in pressure. And the drop was equivalent to a diuretic. But without the side effects.
In this group, the pressure dropped from 158/82 to 143/75. In other words, they almost got rid of hypertension just by eating flaxseed. To put it in perspective, this drop in pressure would result in almost 50% fewer strokes and almost 30% less heart disease.
And, look, it wasn’t just in this study. In a review of more than 15 clinical trials, with more than 1300 participants, concluded that flaxseed has the power to significantly lower both systolic and diastolic pressure. If you are one of the 30 million Brazilians who have hypertension, it is worth adding 1 tablespoon of flaxseed to your diet.
It’s cheaper than buying medicine…. 6th benefit- Flaxseed can prevent diabetes and control your blood sugar Diabetes, as you know, has been increasing a lot recently. There are a lot of pre-diabetic people and too many in their mouths to become diabetic.
Just missing a little push. And one of the problems that is making this worse is the lack of fiber in the diet. Flaxseed is rich in two types of fiber – soluble and insoluble.
Insoluble fiber provides satiety and soluble fiber slows the absorption of sugar into the blood, which can reduce blood sugar levels. And that's not all. Fiber plays a crucial role in maintaining metabolic health, as its fermentation in the large intestine produces metabolites such as acetate, propionate and butyrate, which have beneficial effects on glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity.
Do you know that apple cider vinegar improves diabetes? So, in apple cider vinegar you take acetate, which can improve blood sugar. But when you eat fiber your intestine makes acetate.
In other words, you don't need to drink apple cider vinegar if you don't like the acidic taste. Eating more fiber will have the same result. And fiber has a prebiotic effect.
Improves diversity and grows good bacteria in the intestine such as bifidobacterium which maintains the integrity of the intestinal barrier and reduces systemic inflammation, two important factors in preventing weight gain and controlling diabetes. Specifically, with flaxseed, a meta-analysis of 25 scientific studies showed that eating flaxseed can lower blood sugar and increase insulin sensitivity, preventing you from becoming diabetic, and if you are already diabetic, better control this glucose. 5th Benefit- It can reduce your cholesterol Well, it improves blood pressure, reduces the risk of diabetes, lowers cholesterol.
As a cardiologist, I love this seed! Precisely because it is rich in fiber. When you eat fattier food, the fiber in flaxseed reduces the body's absorption of this fat.
Furthermore, bile, which contains cholesterol, is neutralized by fiber, causing the body to use circulating cholesterol to produce more bile. And that's not all, flaxseed is one of the vegetables richest in omega 3 — A tablespoon of ground flaxseeds contains around 1. 6 grams of ALA alpha-linolenic acid, which is quite significant.
Omega 3 helps to raise good cholesterol, reduce bad cholesterol and triglycerides a little. That's why if you suffer from high cholesterol, have fatty plaques, it's worth starting with flaxseed today and not spending your money on omega 3 capsules. 4th benefit - Flaxseed can reduce inflammation and your body aches See, the current diet is unbalanced.
We consume a lot of omega 6, from soybean and corn oils…. and also from the proteins we eat - chicken eats feed, fish eats feed, pigs eat feed. So a non-organic egg has a lot of omega 6, just like our meats.
Omega 3 has anti-inflammatory properties. If you are suffering from pain in your body, joints or spine, a diet rich in omega 3 can help. and That's where flaxseed comes in.
It's more interesting than spending money on anti-inflammatories from the pharmacy, which can attack your heart and kidneys! 3rd benefit- Flaxseed can reduce your risk of breast cancer Women, look at the interesting benefits of flaxseed. Breast cancer is the most common cancer if we don't count skin cancer.
Almost 70,000 new cases are discovered in Brazil per year. And it is the cancer that kills the most women here in the country. What does flaxseed have that protects against breast cancer?
Flaxseed is rich in lignans. If you don't know what lignans are, they are phytoestrogens that can buffer the effects of the body's own estrogen and have potent cancer-fighting properties. Flaxseed has between 70–800 times more lignans than other vegetables.
In the laboratory, lignans directly suppress the proliferation of breast cancer. And it's not just the laboratory. Among breast cancer survivors—those who had higher levels of lignans in their blood appear to survive significantly longer A double-blind, randomized clinical trial shows the effect of flaxseed.
Researchers selected women with breast cancer scheduled for surgery and randomly divided them into two groups: One group ate a muffin containing flaxseed every day, while the other group ate a muffin that looked and tasted the same but did not contained flaxseed. Biopsies of the tumors in the flaxseed and non-flaxseed groups were taken at the beginning of the study and then compared with the surgical specimen about five weeks later. Did it have any effect?
Flaxseeds appeared to make the cancer of women who ate the flaxseed cookies less aggressive. 2nd benefit- Flaxseeds can reduce your risk of prostate cancer Men, pay attention! Almost 50% of Brazilian men have never been to a urologist.
And more than 60,000 Brazilians discover prostate cancer every year. Again, lignans can also reduce the risk of prostate cancer, and also make the tumor less aggressive. Studies with men with prostate cancer who consumed flaxseed showed lower rates of tumor growth and a drop in PSA.
But of course, it's not just about eating flaxseed. If you've never been to a urologist, go! Do not be shy!
and 1st-benefit- Flaxseed can help with weight loss and belly fat As I already said, flaxseed is rich in fiber and healthy fats that help with satiety. And it also has a lot of protein. A meta-analysis of 45 studies found that eating flaxseeds as part of a healthy diet can reduce your weight, especially after 12 weeks in obese individuals.
And it also reduced abdominal circumference, that is, it reduced belly fat. These are the 7 main benefits of flaxseeds, but there are others, right? It reduces constipation, can improve your skin, reduces the risk of osteoporosis and reduces the risk of bowel, lung and even skin cancer.
See, it's not new that flaxseed is considered a superfood. Hippocrates, back in ancient Greece, wrote about the use of flaxseed to treat his patients. So, are you convinced yet?
I was really convinced to put flaxseed in my diet because of its anti-cancer effect. The effect of lignans is very interesting. And flaxseed is one of the main anti-cancer foods out there.
It has pro-apoptotic (causing programmed cell death of tumor cells) and anti-angiogenic (reduces blood supply) effects. Of course, you don't need to overdo it. One tablespoon a day is enough.
Which one to choose: golden or brown flaxseed? From a nutritional point of view, both are very similar, with sea bream having a little more protein. In terms of omega 3, the two are similar.
What distinguishes the two is the flavor and the price. Golden flaxseed has a slightly milder flavor and is more expensive, as it is imported. Brown linseed has a harder shell and is planted here in Brazil, so it is a little cheaper.
And linseed oil, does it help? Well, I don't think it's interesting to use flaxseed oil, because you will miss out on many of the amazing benefits of flaxseed. It may be healthier than other oils, but you won't be getting all the benefits.
How will you use this flaxseed? First of all, you can't go wrong here. You won't eat the whole flaxseed!
You can buy it whole, but grind it first. If you don't grind the seeds or chew them very, very well, they can pass straight through your intestines without being digested. If you eat it whole it may not release any nutrients.
So, first grind the seeds with a blender or coffee grinder. Or you can buy them already ground. Ground flaxseeds can last at least four months at room temperature.
But look, if you go beyond that it can become rancid, and lose omega 3 and other positive properties. I buy it whole and grind it every week. Are flaxseeds good for everyone?
Who shouldn't eat flaxseed? If you suffer from diverticula, can you eat flaxseed? If you grind, of course you can, you should.
However, if you are allergic to flaxseed, it is best to avoid it. Due to its high fiber content, eating too much can cause gas and bloating. If you struggle with this, start slowly.
A teaspoon of coffee a day. . .
And if you have end-stage kidney disease, as flaxseed is rich in potassium, it could be a problem, so talk to your doctor first. It's not that it makes the kidney problem worse. There is a study that, due to its anti-inflammatory properties, flaxseed may even be beneficial in lupus nephritis.
The problem is only potassium. How to put flaxseed in your diet? Is it better to consume flaxseed in the morning or at night?
I even looked, but there is no research on the best time of day to consume flaxseeds. The best time to eat them is the one that works for you! And flaxseed is simple to add to your diet.
I'll be very honest. Before I knew about the benefits of flaxseed, I practically let flaxseed go moldy. I only used it when it was close to expiration.
See how important it is for you to know the benefits and wear the shirt. Today I use it every day. Most of the time I use it mixed into oatmeal for breakfast.
For me it doesn't make any difference to the taste. But you can add it to fruit smoothies, sprinkling ground flaxseed on salads, soups, beans, cake or pie recipes, tapioca, farofa, yogurt, chicken parmigiana. .
. It's quite easy to get your daily serving of flaxseeds. And they make a good alloy, and can be used as a thickener.
If flaxseed is not part of your diet, it is worth introducing, however you imagine. If you use it, write down below how you use it. I hope you liked the video.
