About Naturevibe Botanicals Organic Brown Flax Seed

►Flax is low in carbohydrates but extremely high in both soluble and insoluble fiber, may help with fat loss and can reduce sugar cravings. Most adults should aim to consume between 25-40 grams of fiber from high-fiber foods daily. Eating just two tablespoons of flaxseeds per day will provide about 20 percent to 25 percent of your fiber needs. ►Two tablespoons of whole contains about: 110 calories, 6 grams carbohydrates, 4 grams protein, 8.5 grams fat, 6 grams fiber, 0.6 milligram manganese (26 percent DV), 0.4 milligram thiamine/vitamin B1 (22 percent), 80 milligrams magnesium (20 percent DV), 132 milligrams phosphorus (14 percent DV), 0.2 milligram copper (12 percent DV), 5 milligrams selenium (8 percent DV). ►If you want healthier skin, hair and nails, consider adding two tablespoons of flaxseeds to your smoothie or one tablespoon of flaxseed oil to your daily routine. You can take up to one to two tablespoons of flaxseed oil by mouth per day to hydrate your skin and hair. It can also be mixed with essential oils and used topically as a natural skin moisturizer, since it seeps into your skin and reduces dryness. ►Flax is a great way to naturally replace gluten-containing grains in recipes. Grains, especially those containing gluten, can be hard to digest for many people, but flax is usually easily metabolized. ►Flaxseeds also contain a good amount of vitamin B6, folate (or vitamin B9), iron, potassium and zinc. As you can see, it's no secret as to where the benefits of flaxseed come from with this nutrition profile.
