Super foods sometimes need super healthy and beautiful fresh faced girls to promote them because at face value, when you first hear the name of the main ingredient involved, you might think…..yuck.
What do you think of when you hear, we’re serving flaxseed sandwiches for lunch?
Quick. Think of an excuse to exit.
If research is true, and it seems to be, flaxseed is indeed a super food.
Flaxseeds occur in two basic varieties: brown and yellow or golden (also known as golden linseeds).
Most types have similar nutritional characteristics and equal numbers of short-chain omega-3 fatty acids.
The exception is a type of yellow flax called solin (trade name Linola), which has a completely different oil profile and is very low in omega-3 FAs. Flaxseeds produce a vegetable oil known as flaxseed oil or linseed oil, which is one of the oldest commercial oils. It is an edible oil obtained by expeller pressing, sometimes followed by solvent extraction. Solvent-processed flaxseed oil has been used for many centuries as a drying oil in painting and varnishing.
Although brown flax can be consumed as readily as yellow, and has been for thousands of years, its better-known uses are in paints, for fiber, and for cattle feed.
Thank you Wikipedia for the extensive definition.
Here are two respectable sources among many that praise its benefits.
At webmd.com they educate, “Some call it one of the most powerful plant foods on the planet. There’s some evidence it may help reduce your risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes. That’s quite a tall order for a tiny seed that’s been around for centuries.”
All well and good. Now for another.
The informative site draxe.com shares, “Flax seed benefits could help you improve digestion, give you clear skin, lower cholesterol, reduce sugar cravings, balance hormones, fight cancer and promote weight loss… and that’s just the beginning!”
Those are magnificent superlatives.
The challenge is to get the average consumer to eat them on a regular basis.
If there ever was a fresh faced blonde beauty to help sell or promote it is a now semi-retired actress named Cassidy Rae.
Her profile at imdb.com smiles, “Cassidy was discovered at age 14 by a talent agent in Florida and started modeling and acting in commercials. She got a one year scholarship at the Huntington Film Institute in Orlando, which led to a part in the Nickelodeon series Clarissa Explains It All (1991). She then (1993) moved to Los Angeles together with her mother Amy to start an acting career.”
We fell in love with her when we saw her in a Lifetime Movie Network gem called Lying Eyes.
The film stars Cassidy Rae as Amy Miller, Vincent Irizarry as Derek Bradshaw, Jamie Rose as Elizabeth Bradshaw and Allison Smith as Jennifer.
The film had a working title of Bed of Lies.
It was filmed in California at Cupertino, Palo Alto, San Jose and the Los Gatos High School.
Here’s the storyline.
A 33-year-old lawyer, Derek Bradshaw courts and wins Amy Miller, an 18-year-old, sexy, virginal high school cheerleader. The slick lawyer is the epitome of creepiness: a straight-faced liar, a sneaky philanderer, and magnetically charismatic. He seduces Amy with romantic evenings and extravagant gifts much too adult for an 18-year-old. Amy’s support system falters as she withdraws from her friends and her hard-working single mother, while a mystery stalker repeatedly threatens Amy’s life. Is it Derek’s suspicious wife Elizabeth, Amy’s best friend Dana, a jealous ex-boyfriend, or some other anonymous competitor?
When Amy finally acknowledges Derek’s duplicity and attempts to end the affair, he won’t let her off that easily, and the threats escalate as she becomes the victim of vicious pranks and ultimately, life-threatening attacks.
It is so easy to fall in love with Cassidy in that fairly predictable thriller.
She is the star.
She could sell anything, including jail time to 33 year old predators.
Selling flaxseed would probably be better.
There are suggestions on how to make the wonderful seed more palatable.
At whfoods.com they creatively express, “Finding creative ways to add flaxseeds to your meals can be a challenge. One popular technique is to incorporate ground flaxseeds into your muffin, cookie, or bread recipes.”
If you have doubts about incorporating flaxseed into your diet on a regular basis, we have a visiting female speaker who can be very influential.
