Flaxseed is the term for the seeds of the flax plant, which are used in medicine and care. It is in the form of small grains, no larger than 3 millimeters, brown in color. When exposed to water, these grains swell and secrete a large amount of mucilaginous secretion. These small, inconspicuous grains contain a huge amount of substances that are essential for the proper functioning of the human body. These include fatty acids, fiber, amino acids, easily digestible proteins, choline, B, C and E vitamins as well as antioxidants.
Regular consumption of flaxseed makes intestinal peristalsis improve. Ailments of the digestive system are alleviated and the moisture content of the mucous membranes is increased. Flaxseed supports the body’s hormonal balance and regulates blood cholesterol levels.
Thanks to the presence of omega-3 acids, flaxseed has a positive effect on hair. This substance is one of the most important nutrients. This, combined with the other elements, makes the hair nourished, thick, soft to the touch and shiny. In addition, they are more moisturized. Flax seeds make the hair less prone to hair loss and frizz. Their appearance and condition are definitely better. When you regularly use flaxseed, your hair grows faster, and if you have a problem with dandruff – it can definitely decrease.
Pour 2 tablespoons of flaxseed over water and wait 10 minutes. Eat such a kisel once a day, every day. You can also add flaxseeds to smoothies, salads and sandwiches. This is a very popular way to use flaxseed.
Prepare a flaxseed hair mask! Just combine 2 tablespoons of flaxseed with a glass of water and a few drops of essential oil. Apply such a gelatin to your hair and keep it for half an hour, then rinse it off.
