What are the benefits of flaxseed? Heck, what is flaxseed? Thanx!
Dear Reader,
Flaxseed - you may have seen it as ingredient touted in baked
goods, smoothies, trail mix, or a variety of other products. But
do most consumers really know the flaxseed history? Thanks for
asking this question so we can get to the root of this supposed
wonder-seed.
As its name would suggest, flaxseed is… a seed from the flax
plant! These sometimes golden or reddish brown seeds come from
the flax herb (Linum usitatissimum), and are about the same size
as sesame seeds. The National Institutes of Health (link is
external) (NIH) suggests this blue flowering plant may have
originated in Egypt.

It was the first golden age of Japanese civilization. Suddenly,
in the eighth century, there appeared the great metropolis of
Nara, its broad avenues lined with magnificent temples. Culture
rushed in from Korea, from China, and, over the Silk Road, from
as far away as Persia. And in this age Japanese literature found
its first voice, a clear and powerful one, in the Man'yoshu.
Literally "The Collection of the Thousand Leaves," this
sweeping anthology, its poets ranging from emperors to beggars,
is often considered the pinnacle of Japanese verse.
In the Man'yoshu are found some of the most beautiful love poems
in ancient world literature. Here are revealed the most private
emotions of the men and women who thrived, and desired, and
yearned thirteen hundred years ago. Here are the words, at times
startlingly frank, at times exquisitely sophisticated, with which
the lovers addressed each other as they moved through a world in
which nature seemed animistically alive.

The first leg of the USS Enterprise's five year mission takes
them into uncharted territory. There the Enterprise is nearly
destroyed and strands Kirk and his crew on a remote planet with
no means of communication. Kirk must then work with the elements
to reunite his crew and get back to Earth.
