There are polyunsaturated fatty acids (Omega-3, Omega-6 and Omega-9). But the most important thing is that the correct proportion of Omega-3 to Omega-6 is contained. This is 1: 4.
In the shell of flax seeds there are also polysaccharides. They bind a lot of water. That is why when we eat seeds, then inside us they will swell.
If you just swallow seeds, then most of them will simply come out. Therefore, here you need to either thoroughly chew or mix on the coffee grinder.

It is worth mentioning about the mucus of flax seeds, as a useful ingredient for treatment. She impresses the seed shell. If it is properly removed, then you can get a good anti-inflammatory, enveloping, expectorant, soft diuretic and laxative.

Combination with sunflower oil
Flax seeds for intestinal cleaning can be prepared with sunflower oil. There will be not only cleansing, but also the restoration and healing of the Russian Academy of Sciences of the digestive system.
Recipe:
Grind 100 gr. Seeds and pour raw materials into a glass container. We pour there 1/4 liters of oil and put on 7 days in a dark place. Every day we shake the container. Before drinking the remedy, it is also necessary to shake it.
We accept 3 times a day for 10 days in 1 hour before meals for 1 tbsp. l. And during this period you need to observe the diet. Remove all fried, oily, smoked, eggs, and sweets from your diet.
The result appears not on the first day of reception, but only after a while. It is important that at this time your menu consists only of vegetable products. These are fruits, vegetables, porridge or potatoes.
But this fund has contraindications!
Do not apply if there are stones in the bustling bubble. Pregnant women should also be abandoned. When cholecystit, use the oil tincture of the flax seed is not needed, but during the food.
During the exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis, if there is hepatitis or bile disease, it is impossible to use this tincture.
In such cases you need to do tincture on water. For this, 1 tsp. Seeds brew 1 tbsp. boiling water. In this case, the seeds are not needed. Leave them in general. However, do not forget first to rinse them well before cooking.
Next, leave it. After 2 hours, the infusion will be ready and can be taken. It can also be insist in a thermos. For example, in the morning pour, and taking in the evening. At the same time, the seeds do not polish. They are also stirred and used with the medicine.

It is worth noting that sunflower oil must be non-refined cold spin, and not that is obtained by a chemical path.
It helps to relax the muscles of the internal organs. It has an expectorant action. When Len, along with the oil, falls into the gastrointestinal tract, then the linen seed mucus is enveloping all the ulcers and treats inflammatory processes.
And the oil is lubricated there, removes spasms, relaxes and enriches the body with fat unsaturated acids. Thus, food that passes follows, passes like oil.
How to take linen seed for weight loss
The most painful question of many women is. The most common way to use is chewing dry seeds 1 - 2 tbsp. l. On the day, drinking water.
Although it is a popular way, but not the best. Any seed contains inhibitors ( digestive oppressors), which prevent the digestion of seeds in the stomach.
If the small seed of flax suddenly falls on the goiter and will not be done, it just passes through the intestines. Therefore, seeds need to be chewed very carefully.
And then these inhibitors do not go anywhere and will prevent the suction of nutrients. They do not interfere with clearance. However, the absorption of nutrients with this method will be low.
Therefore, much more useful to cheat the flax is wetting or already germinated. You can soak it in the morning and in the evening to start there. During this time, the seeds are activated and substances that depressing digestion will leave. When the seaw begins to grow, it will already be a more complete product that is closer to the sprout than to the seed.

Compresses can be made from flax seeds. They facilitate pain, soften the furunculae and naphs. Here is the prescription:
The loss of flax seed is put in a bag of gauze, which is lowered for 10 minutes in hot water, then apply a bag to the patient.
You can also use a mucus with ulcer of stomach, gastritis and enteritis.
1 tbsp. l. Linen non-crushed seeds pour 2 hot water glasses and insist 1 hour. Take up periodically and then flash. Apply before meals for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.
With hemorrhoids, it is also possible to use 1/5 glasses as therapeutic enema from the mucus of flaxseed. Naturally, it should be a bit heated. After the enema it is necessary to lie down in bed for 1 hour.

In addition to chewing seeds, you can make good dishes. For example, bread with linen seed. Here is the prescription:
On a special drying plate, make a linen dough from a grilled seed with the addition of water and spices. After that, dried thin cake.

Therefore, all the preparations do without flour. It is possible either seeds to grind on a coffee grinder and use as flour, or grind in a blender with spices already germinated seeds.

At the same time, we make the right molds in the form of small pellets. When you put the whole mixture onto the foil, then the lepts received in the oven for 15 minutes.
Here is one good recipe for porridge from flax seeds. Be sure to make it at home. After all, that porridge, which is sold in stores, is usually made from linseed meals.
It turns out as a result of presses. Such ready porridge is even not very appetizing, and she herself is not so tasty.
Unlike the finished store product, we also have useful oils after grinding. They give the taste and utility of the product.
For one portion we need 2 tbsp. l. seed. All this is placed in a grinding coffee grinder. Here you have ready flour. Move it into a large container in which you will cook porridge.
Next, we take a ripe peeled banana from the peel and cut it with slices straight on the crushed seed. Top pour a few hot water. About 50 - 100 grams. Do not leut a lot, otherwise porridge will be very liquid. Next, take a blender and beat everything.
Everything, porridge ready!
