Discover the Benefits of Flaxseed Tea: A 15-Day Journey to Wellness
How to Make Flaxseed Tea (Simple & Soothing)
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon whole flaxseeds (ground seeds may thicken too much)
- 1 cup water
- Optional: 1 tsp honey or a slice of lemon for flavor
Instructions:
- Bring 1 cup of water to a gentle boil.
- Add 1 tablespoon of flaxseeds.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let steep for 2–3 minutes.
- Strain into a mug using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
- Enjoy warm — plain, or with a touch of honey or lemon.
🍵 Tip: Drink 1 cup daily, preferably in the morning or after meals.
Important Notes & Precautions
✅ Stay Hydrated: Flaxseed absorbs water — drink plenty of fluids to avoid constipation.
✅ Start Slow: If you’re new to flax, begin with ½ tablespoon to avoid gas or bloating.
✅ Do Not Consume Raw in Large Amounts: Raw flaxseeds contain compounds that can be harmful in excess — cooking or boiling neutralizes them.
✅ Consult Your Doctor: If you’re pregnant, on blood thinners, or managing hormone-sensitive conditions (like breast cancer), talk to your healthcare provider before starting.
Can You Use Ground Flaxseed?
Yes — but it may make the tea thicker and gel-like. If you use ground flax, strain it well and drink immediately.
