Prepare Flax Seeds

If you'd like to prepare flax for health purposes, here is what to do.

Steps

Prepare flax seeds for laxative purposes. Flax makes an ideal laxative that is affordable and free of additives or strange ingredients you might find in commercial preparations.
- Soak a teaspoon of flax seeds in cold water overnight.
- In the morning, they are ready for eating. Either eat them direct, or sprinkle them over your cereal or oatmeal.
- Repeat as needed.
Prepare flax seeds for inflammatory reduction purposes. If you suffer from inflammation of the stomach or intestines, flax can help. It can also ease irritable bowel syndrome.^[1]
- Crush the seeds.
- Place one teaspoon of crushed seeds into a glass of water.
- Drink.
Prepare flax for everyday regularity. Flax is great for keeping healthy. Simply add one teaspoon of flax seeds to your daily intake of food.

Always use fresh flax seeds. Use store-ground flax quickly to avoid losing the benefits of the oil.
Flax seeds may help with cholesterol reduction and may help to fight cancer.^[1]

Too many flax seeds and not enough water can cause obstruction of the bowel. Be sure to eat small amounts and to drink plenty of water.
If you're taking medication, talk to your doctor as the flax may inhibit absorption of the medication.
