(News18 Hindi)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"0\" class=\"story_para_0\">Flaxseeds (<em>Alsi<\/em>) may be tiny, but they pack a powerful nutritional punch. Recognised as a superfood in both Ayurveda and modern science, flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, lignans, and antioxidants. When consumed regularly, especially in the form of chutney, they can help reduce cholesterol levels, support heart health, manage weight, and even aid in hormonal balance. Here are the key health benefits of flaxseed chutney and how you can make it at home:<\/p>\n<h2>Lowers Bad Cholesterol<\/h2>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Flaxseeds contain soluble fibre, which binds to cholesterol in the intestines and helps flush it out of the body. This significantly reduces levels of LDL or \u2018bad\u2019 cholesterol. The omega-3 fatty acids in flaxseeds also help reduce fat buildup in the arteries, thereby lowering the risk of heart disease. Regular consumption of flaxseed chutney has been shown to improve blood lipid levels.<\/p>\n<h2>Supports Weight Loss<\/h2>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">This chutney helps you feel full for longer, thanks to its high fibre content, which slows digestion and curbs frequent hunger pangs. As a result, it reduces overall calorie intake and supports weight loss. For those following a healthy diet, flaxseed chutney can be a great addition to daily meals.<\/p>\n<h2>Balances Hormones and Controls Blood Sugar<\/h2>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">Flaxseeds are a rich source of lignans, plant compounds known to help balance hormones, particularly beneficial for women. Flaxseeds also help regulate blood sugar levels, making them suitable for individuals with diabetes. When consumed as chutney, the body absorbs its nutrients more effectively.<\/p>\n<h2>Flaxseed Chutney Recipe<\/h2>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">Making flaxseed chutney is simple and quick:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"listOncontentArticleUL\">\n<li>Lightly roast two teaspoons of flaxseeds.<\/li>\n<li>Add roasted peanuts, garlic, dry red chillies, cumin seeds, and salt to taste.<\/li>\n<li>Blend everything in a mixer.<\/li>\n<li>For extra flavour, you can add a little lemon juice or curd.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\">This chutney pairs well with paratha, roti, or rice. To support heart health, manage blood sugar, or assist with weight loss, consider adding 1\u20132 teaspoons of flaxseed chutney to your daily diet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-1cb0ad73008388e4 jsx-568097696 artcta\">\n<div style=\"font-family:Inter;font-size:17px;line-height:29px\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">The News18 Lifestyle section brings you the latest on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/health-and-fitness\/\">health<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/topics\/fashion\/\">fashion<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/travel\/\">travel<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/food\/\">food<\/a>, and culture \u2014 with wellness tips, celebrity style, travel inspiration, and recipes. <\/span>Also Download the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/eng-article-eop\">News18 App<\/a>\u00a0to stay updated!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"jsx-1cb0ad73008388e4 jsx-568097696 coral-count-custom\">view comments<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-1cb0ad73008388e4 jsx-568097696 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/lifestyle\/\">lifestyle<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> Flaxseed Chutney: Superfood To Help Lower Cholesterol, Manage Weight, And Balance Hormones<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-9278cad478d6a6dc \">\n<div class=\"jsx-9278cad478d6a6dc coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-9278cad478d6a6dc coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
