Why Hansaji recommends flaxseeds:
• One of the richest plant sources of omega 3 fatty acids, helping reduce inflammation and support heart health and joints
• High in soluble and insoluble fibre, improving digestion and relieving constipation within 3–7 days
• Supports healthy cholesterol levels and overall gut health
• Rich in lignans that help balance estrogen and support hormonal health
• Helps reduce bloating, improves satiety, and supports stable energy and mood
How to consume flaxseeds correctly:
• Always lightly roast flaxseeds before use
• Consume them freshly powdered or coarsely ground
• Avoid eating whole or raw flaxseeds, as they may pass undigested
• Ideal quantity: 1–2 teaspoons per day
Best ways to include flaxseeds daily:
• Mixed into curd
• Added to vegetable sabzi or dal
• Stirred into warm water with a little lemon
• Consumed as a homemade flaxseed laddoo
Flaxseed (Alsi) Laddoo recipe:
• 1 cup flaxseeds
• ½ cup jaggery
• 2 tablespoons ghee
• 1–2 tablespoons roasted peanuts or grated coconut
Method:
• Dry roast flaxseeds on a low flame until they crackle and release a nutty aroma
• Allow them to cool completely and grind coarsely
• Heat ghee on low flame, add jaggery and let it melt gently
• Switch off the flame and mix in flaxseed powder and peanuts or coconut
• While warm, shape into small laddoos
• One small laddoo per day with breakfast is sufficient
Changes many people notice within 7 days:
• Smoother digestion and easier bowel movements
• Reduced gas, heaviness, and bloating
• Lower inflammation and less joint stiffness
• Better appetite control and reduced snacking
• Improved hormonal steadiness, fewer mood swings, and better energy
Ayurvedic insight shared by Hansaji:
• Flaxseeds are snigdha (oily) and ushna (warming) in nature
• They help calm vata, reducing dryness, stiffness, anxiety, and irregular digestion
• When vata settles, sleep improves, joints feel lighter, and the nervous system calms
• People with high pitta should consume smaller quantities and combine flaxseeds with cooling foods like curd or vegetables
Important precautions:
• Do not exceed 2 teaspoons daily
• Avoid consuming raw flaxseeds in large amounts
• Those with sensitive digestion, thyroid issues, or on blood-thinning medication should start with ½ teaspoon and observe
To enhance the benefits:
• Drink warm water throughout the day
• Eat meals at regular times
• Chew food slowly
• Include gentle movement like walking, stretching, and yoga
