Flaxseed gel

Hi viewers ,

This is Swetha G , a botanist, blogger ,entrepreneur and a tourist guide of Kolkata.

Today I'm gonna share a miracle recipe I just found out with only one ingredient and can be a wonderful and amazing alternative of Aloe vera gel. Recently ,I've come accross the thing that most of my friends are allergic to Aloe vera gel which is freshly collected from plant and some are allergic to both fresh and stored ones.

After a lot of research , I heard about flaxseeds everywhere on internet and people are hyped up about it. So I thought to give it a try ,and made the gel. As I mentioned in the beginning itself , you'll be needing only one ingredient that is FLAXSEEDS.

Now , take a stainless or non-stick pan in your kitchen , add 2 cups of water and 5 tablespoons of flaxseeds. Bring it to a boil untill you see the white froathy foam gel like consistency forming in the middle of the pan. Once done , strain it immediately with a cotton cloth or any old rag if available.

Let it cool down , you'll see a golden brown to golden transparent gel formed in the bowl. Now you can use it as an alternative of Aloe vera gel without any inflammation or side effects. You can use it on your hair as a mask and leave it on overnight or wash it off after 30 minutes. You can apply on your face, mix in DIYs , or use directly.

There are numerous benefits of flaxseeds ,and the most important one is for weight loss. It's often grinded and mixed in whole wheat flour and consumed as dietary supplement. 

Hope my blog is helpful and your feedback is appreciated . Thank you.
