Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Flaxseed Flour
Metabolic Effect: Flaxseed flour regulates digestion and provides a feeling of fullness thanks to its fiber content. It helps balance blood sugar and supports gut health. It is a good alternative for celiac patients as it does not contain gluten.
Consumption Recommendation: It can be used in recipes such as bread, cakes, and cookies. It can also be consumed by adding it to smoothies or yogurt. However, it is important to drink plenty of water due to its high fiber content.
Things to Consider: Excessive consumption can lead to digestive problems. Due to the oils it contains, it should be stored in a cool and dry place. One tablespoon of flaxseed flour meets approximately 10% of the daily fiber requirement.
Exercise Equivalent: You need to walk for about 30 minutes to burn these calories. Alternatively, 15 minutes of brisk running can have the same effect.
