Flax Seed

The health benefits of flax seed really can’t be overstated.  It is full of nutrients, beneficial omega 3s, and fiber (which has been shown in studies to improve the quality of the gut bacteria).  It is also one of the best natural treatments for constipation, reduces inflammation, lowers cholesterol and may help prevent cancer and lower blood pressure.  Adding a tablespoon or so a day to your diet is a great idea!
