- Cover photo description:
- Flax (also known as common flax or linseed) is a member of the genus Linum in the family Linaceae. It is a food and fiber crop that is grown in cooler regions of the world. One hundred grams of ground flax seed supplies about 450 calories, 41 grams of fat, 28 grams of fiber, and 20 grams of protein. Flax seed sprouts are edible, with a slightly spicy flavor. Excessive consumption of flax seeds with inadequate water can cause bowel obstruction. In northern India, flax-seed, called tisi or alsi, is traditionally roasted, powdered, and eaten with boiled rice, a little water, and a little salt. Linum usitatissimum seeds are mentioned in the Ayurveda and have been used in the traditional Austrian medicine internally (directly soaked or as tea) and externally (as compresses or oil extracts) for treatment of disorders of the respiratory tract, eyes, infections, cold, flu, fever, rheumatism and gout.
