Flax seeds are a treasure trove of dietary fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants. The fiber in flax seeds aids in bowel movement, helping to smooth the path for waste removal and thus, ensuring a cleansed colon. On the other hand, kefir, a fermented milk drink similar to a thin yogurt, is packed with probiotics. These beneficial bacteria enhance gut health, aiding in digestion and the absorption of nutrients, while also strengthening the body’s immune system.
Preparing Your Nightly Digestive Tonic
To make this gentle digestive aid, you will need:
2 tablespoons of flax seeds
130 ml of kefir (at least 2.5% fat)
The preparation couldn’t be simpler. Just before bedtime, mix the flax seeds with the kefir in a glass. The mixture should be consumed immediately, as the flax seeds will begin to swell and gel, which is part of what makes this remedy so effective.
Enjoying the Benefits
