10. Flaxseeds
“Flaxseeds are the richest source of lignins, polyphenols that have weak estrogenic effects which may have significant health benefits,” says Julieanna Hever, MS, RD, CPT, a plant-based dietitian and author of The Vegiterranean Diet and The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Plant-Based Nutrition.”
Research suggests that lignans may minimize the risk of breast cancer, control blood sugar, and lower blood pressure. Also, flaxseeds are amazing sources of essential omega-3 fats, which are important for controlling inflammation and heart health.”
