do you people know about flax? Flax seeds. they are very good for health. one of my friend , who is into writing books about health and health care, eating habbits, cooking and she is a senior lady. she is quite knowledgeable and i respect what she says. she told me about this flax seeds and that they are very good. and the flower of it is the national flower of Belarus.it is good to possesss anti-cancer properties, and good in reducing specific type of tumors too. it can be eaten asa sprout too. it helps in constipation but excesive eating of flax seed can cause diahrrea too. the oil is a regular vegetable oil and is also known as linseed oil. she told that it can help in baking and can replace egg. one tablespoon of ground flax seed and three tbsp of water may serve as a replacement of egg in baking by binding the other ingredients. do you people know about this. now am planning to buy it in little amount and give it a try.
