Here's where the flax seed story starts racking up major points. Lignans are tantalizing plant-based compounds that can shrink existing breast and colon cancer tumors and can prevent new ones from getting started. Flax seed has staggering lignan levels . Many plant foods have some lignans, but flax seed has at least 75 times more than any other. To get the lignans that are in just 4 tbsp of flax seed, you'd need to eat about 60 cups of fresh broccoli or 100 slices of whole wheat bread.
Golden flax seed is 28% - 35% fiber, 1/3 of which is soluble, the other 2/3 insoluble. Insoluble fiber increases the bulk of stools and prevents constipation, both of which play a role in the prevention of colon cancer.
