FLAX SEEDS
The Healing Miracle of FLAX
A bag of little flaxseeds in a health food store was a hard sell. But that is about to change. With it's healing
powers, flax is the next nutritional superstar. In fact, shoppers in the new millennium may start making flaxseed
an essential additive to their diets. Stocked inside this tiny little seed are two impressive compounds. Lignams
and alpha-linolenic acid which appear to help us battle heart attacks, breast and colon cancer, arthritis, severe
menstrual cramps, even depression! What is mind boggling is that flaxseed has more of these two compounds
than any other food by far! In fact, top flaxseed researcher Stephen Cunnane Ph.D., of the University of
Toronto says, There is nobody who won't benefit from adding flaxseed to his or her diet. So how does it
taste? This diminutive little powerhouse has a pleasantly nutty flavor. Best of all, adding flax to your diet is
easy. Start off with a sprinkle a day. At natural food stores, look for preground flaxseed (its like cornmeal in
consistency) with vitamins C and E added to stabilize it against oxidation, sometimes small amounts of vitamin
B6 and Zinc are added too flax researchers arent convinced these are necessary. Sprinkle 1 or more
tablespoons in hot or cold cereal, yogurt, soup, or fruit juice. (Allow for extra calories and fat:) Each tablespoon
contains 25 calories, 2.5 grams fat). Once a package of preground flaxseed is opened, keep it refrigerated; try
to use within 6 months. You will fiber up your diet. Its amazing how much fiber a little fax contains. Just ¼ Cup
of ground flaxseed delivers 6 grams of fiber, as much fiber as 1 ½ cups of cooked oatmeal ! Studies prove that
when flaxseed is added to the diet, levels of high-density lipoprotein (LDL, the bad cholesterol)drop, while
levels of low densitylipoprotein (HDL, the bad cholesterol) stay put, probably due to all that fiber (including the
soluble kind). Regularity improves, as well.
OTHER FACTORS.
In blind taste tests among 90 college students, muffins and cookies with ground flaxseed in the recipe won out
over plain muffins and cookies for flavor, tenderness, and color.
IN CONSIDERATION
To get health benefits, researchers estimate you need anywhere from 6 to 25 grams a day (in ground flaxseed,
that works out to 1 level measuring tablespoon up to ¼ cup) .
Note: Because a few people are highly allergic to flax, start by using less than ¼ teaspoon a day, increasing
gradually if no reactions occur.

FROM OUR READERS
I feel that the following is information that any one who uses a microwave oven to heat water should be made
aware of. About five days ago, my 26 year old son decided to have a cup of instant coffee. He took a cup of
water and put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had done numerous times before). I am not
sure how long he set the timer for but he told me he wanted to bring the water to a boil. When the timer shut the
oven off, he removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the cup he noted that the water was not boiling
but instantly the water in the cup "blew up" into his face. The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his
hand but all the water had flew out into his face due to the buildup of energy. His whole face is blistered and he
has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face which may leave scarring. He also may have lost partial sight in his
left eye. While at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this a fairly common occurrence
and water (alone) should never be heated in a microwave oven. If water is heated in this manner, something
should be placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as a wooden stir stick, tea bag, etc. It is however a much
safer choice to boil the water in a tea kettle. Please pass this information on to friends and family. Here is what
our science teacher has to say on the matter: "Thanks for the microwave warning. I have seen this happen
before. It is caused by a phenomenon known as super heating. It can occur anytime water is heated and will
particularly occur if the vessel that the water is heated in is new. What happens is that the water heats faster
than the vapor bubbles can form. If the cup is very new then it is unlikely to have small surface scratches inside
it that provide a place for the bubbles to form. As the bubbles cannot form and release some of the heat that
has built up, the liquid does not boil, and the liquid continues to heat up well past its boiling point. What then
usually happens is that the liquid is bumped or jarred, which is just enough of a shock to cause the bubbles to
rapidly form and expel the hot liquid. The rapid formation of bubbles is also why a carbonated beverage spews
when opened after having been shaken." Please pass this on to everyone you know, it could save a lot of pain
and suffering.
