    About this ebook

    35 Healthy Recipes using Flaxseed shows how to eat lots more flaxseed so that you get all of the healthy goodness from its omega 3 fats, lignans, fibre and all of its other healthy content. Whole flaxseeds, roasted flaxseeds, flaxseed meal and flaxseed oil are dealt with so that you will know how to successfully add them to existing recipes as well as the 35 flaxseed recipes given in the book.

    Details are also given on how you can use the omega 3 rich oils in flaxseed instead of other less healthy oils and fats. You are shown how to used flaxseed instead of eggs and as a substitute for normal flour, which has very little useful nutrient content other than starch.

    Flaxseed can be used to make gluten free products due to its ability to be used instead of wheat flour. The book contains a number of gluten free recipes using flaxseed. These recipes can be very useful for people having celiac disease or wheat allergies.

    Flax seed can also be used to produce foods that are low in carbohydrate. This is very useful for people who are trying to follow a low carb diet. Flaxseeds contain virtually no carbohydrate and as a result are great to put into food when you are following schemes such as the Atkins diet. A number of the recipes in the book are designed to be low carb.

    The recipes in the book that use flaxseed as an egg substitute are very useful for people who have an allergy to chicken eggs as well as people who are following a vegan diet. There are a number of ways to produce egg substitute from flaxseed and these are all detailed in the book.

    If you have to avoid eggs, gluten or wheat or just want to get more omega 3 fatty acids into your diet, flaxseeds could be part of the solution. Get this book now and see how flaxseeds could help you lead a healthier life.

    Ellen Vincent

    Ellen Vincent was brought up in Ghana but now lives in the UK. She is interested in all things that are natural. Ellen has noticed that many of the cosmetics and treatments that are available in the West contain lots of artificial ingredients and are often based on oils and substances made from petro-chemicals. After comparing them with the kinds of things that she used in Ghana she has found that the petro-chemical based ones can cause irritations and bad reactions as well as not being as good as natural based products. She now extensively makes her own cosmetics and only uses the best natural ingredients that she can find.Back in the old country coconut oil use is widespread and is used in cooking as well as to make body creams. She uses virgin coconut oil to cook with and uses it as the base for many of her skin and hair creams and oils. Ellen now produces a range of natural cosmetics that she sells in her local area in the UK under the name of 'Natural Revelations'. She hopes that she will be able to introduce these to Ghana at some stage together with all of the books that she has written on natural healthy living.Dealing with the outside of your body is fine but, to make the most of the creams and oils that you apply, you need to make sure that the foods that you eat are also doing their job. She is a big fan of green smoothies and makes sure that she has these every day. She feels invigorated after drinking them. You should look out for Ellen's books on green smoothies which include a volume that just contains ideas for recipes. She has built up her vast collection of green smoothie recipes by experimentation and following good practice.In the UK she came across apple cider vinegar and has found that this too is very useful when it comes to treating your skin and keeping your body healthy. She was so amazed by the many uses that can be found for apple cider vinegar that she wrote a book all about it. This too will soon be available through Smashwords.If you want to find out about how using a range of natural ingredients can be so good for your body and health, then you really should read Ellen's books. These are available in both electronic formats and as paperbacks. She is hoping to produce a book specifically for the care of Black hair and skin and as a result you should watch out for this when it is actually published in the near future.

      Back to Contents

      Introduction

      Flaxseeds before harvest

      Flax seeds contain lots of good ingredients, such as omega 3 fats, that would be good to include in our day to day diets. This book is dedicated to showing you how you can include more flax seeds in the recipes that you cook. Sometimes it will just be a case of adding some flaxseeds to an existing recipe. Other times it will involve substituting flax, in part or totally, for an existing ingredient in a recipe. Finally there are recipes that are designed to use flax seed as a main ingredient. Flax seeds and their contents are not usually used in most cooking. Due to the special characteristics of flax seeds you have to add them to your recipes in a careful and considered way. In this book you will gain all of the knowledge that you need in order to successfully integrate flax seeds into your diet. This will then both improve the nutrient profile of your food as well as adding some interesting flavours and textures to the food.

      Despite flaxseeds only being relatively small seeds they contain lots of useful nutrients. Although they aren't classed as a grain they have a nutrient profile that is very
