Besides omega-3, flax seeds also has large amounts of vitamin B1, phosphorus and iron, improve cardiovascular and skin health.
But the human body can not absorb the nutrient if it is consumed raw and not digestible also. Hence, flax-seed meals are popular and they can be added to variety of dishes that asked for bran or flour.
Milled flax seeds that are found mostly in stores can be stored for a week or so, depending upon the climate, they go rancid very quickly. So best is to grind the lightly toasted flax seeds in your mixer and use the fresh flax-seed meal in your recipes.
