Why Should I Get Organic Golden Linseed?
If you are looking to increase your Essential Fatty Acid intake (which you should be), then look no further, as linseed are 42% fat! That means In each 10 gram tablespoon there are approximately 4.3 grams of fats, the composition of which is 73% polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as omega-6 fatty acids and the omega-3 fatty acids, and 27% monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids.
Linseed also promote bowel movement by increasing the water content and bulk volume of our stools (number 2's!), keeping us nice and regular. This is especially important as most of us don't eat the recommended amount of fibre, but adding linseed to your diet is an easy, convenient way of increasing your intake. Start with a teaspoon, and increase in size slowly until you're having 1-2 tablespoons, spread throughout the day.
