Naturally Carb-free
Flax (linseed) is a virtually carb-free, just 1% available carbohydrate in a tummy-friendly high-fibre plant based food; the high fibre even helps mitigate any other cabs in a meal. Traditionally, for the last 5000 years or so flaxseed has been eaten ground. It was commonly baked into bread or cakes, other seasoning, herbs, spices and fruit being added.
Modern Flax for keto diets for health and weight control
Whether you decide on a keto diet to manage your health or as an easy way to control weight flax is a great ally. It adds good protein, fibre and omega-3 levels to your diet, all of which can be helpful for weight control and overall health.
Many keto diets are high in saturated fats and omega-6, linseed contains 25% omega-3 which gives an excellent balance for other fats.
