Flaxseeds Stuffed Chapati
Although flaxseeds contain a large number of healthy components, it is super rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, lignans & fibre which account for its reputation. Each tablespoon of ground flaxseed contains about 1.8 g omega-3 fatty acids. Lignans have both plant estrogen and antioxidant qualities. Flaxseeds contain 75 to 800 times more lignans than other plant foods. Flaxseeds contain both the soluble and insoluble fibre in abundance.
