It is said that consumption of flax seeds is not very safe during pregnancy but lack of proper evidence. Flax seeds contain some of the vital nutrients that you need in pregnancy. Here are some of the benefits of having them when you are pregnant: flax seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and fiber that your body needs during pregnancy. The laxative properties of flax seeds help keep constipation away. Flax seeds are also a good source of fiber, minerals and vitamins. You can keep the blood sugar levels normal by taking flax seeds. So you should have flax seeds during pregnancy. And there is no harm to you or your baby.
