Flax seeds are small, golden brown seeds that contain omega-3 fats, fiber, and other plant compounds. They may help improve digestion and reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. They’re easily incorporated into your diet — grinding them is the best way to make the most of their health benefits. They consist of 42% fat, 29% carbs and 18% protein.

One tablespoon (10 grams) of whole flax seeds provides the following nutrients (4Trusted Source):

  • Calories: 55
  • Water: 7%
  • Protein: 1.9 grams
  • Carbs: 3 grams
  • Sugar: 0.2 grams
  • Fiber: 2.8 grams
  • Fat: 4.3 grams

Flax seed’s soluble fiber helps regulate blood sugar and cholesterol levels. It also promotes digestive health by feeding your beneficial gut bacteria. When mixed with water, the mucilage gums in flax seeds become very thick. Combined with the insoluble fiber content, this makes flax seeds a natural laxative. Consuming flax seeds can help promote regularity, prevent constipation, and reduce your risk of diabetes.

Flax seeds may be useful as a part of a weight loss diet because they contain soluble fiber, which becomes highly sticky when mixed with water. This fiber has been shown to be effective at suppressing hunger and cravings, potentially promoting weight loss.
