Linseed (also known as flaxseed) come from the region that spans from the eastern Mediterranean to China. This seed is a rich source of omega fatty acids, especially alpha-linolenic acid (omega 3), but to access most of the oils in linseed it is better to break the whole seeds first. It is always better the break them up as and when you need them, because over time the oils will deteriorate.

Golden linseeds can help to stimulate the intestinal movements, this helps to ensuring the flow of food through the body. The seeds absorb water from your stomach, making the it swell and split open. This realizes the polyunsaturated fatty acids, where they can be used by your body. This will aid digestion and release the laxative properties.
