hi guys dr. Berg here in this video

we’re going to talk about flax seeds

okay now the flax seed has this really

awesome nutrient called alpha linolenic

acid this is an essential fatty acid

mainly involved in making structural

parts than yourself okay so it’s the raw

material to help make certain membranes

in yourself so if you’re deficient in

this essential fatty acid you’re going

to get the biggest thing you get is dry

scaly rough skin now if you take this or

consume flax seeds and it doesn’t work

it could mean that you’re not digesting

them because you don’t have a

gallbladder or you don’t have the bile

necessary to break down these fats okay

so it could be your own digestive system

but if you’re deficient you’ll get this

symptom you can get brittle hair dry

hair hot flashes cracking of the skin

especially in your heels bumps in the

back of the arm

those little the little chicken skin

type bumps right cardiovascular problems

coronary heart stuff increase bad

cholesterol so that’s all the

deficiencies the cool thing about

getting your essential fatty acids from

the flax is that it’s very high in

omega-3 versus omega-6 so it’s

anti-inflammatory but you can also find

this essential fatty acid in chia seed

hemp walnuts okay

but because it’s very sensitive to

oxygen Jinna you want to grind it before

you consume it and consume it very quick

because if you wait you’re going to lose

the nutritional value and it’s sort of

summarize that there was a study talking

about flax seeds making the prostate

worse okay well they went back and they

did a big review of these studies and

they found that actually was not true so

consuming flax seed will not enlarge

your prostate will not cause prostate

cancer I’ll put a link down below so you

know to worry about that I think it’s a

good thing to consume and especially if

you have any of these right here thanks
