WHOLE BLACK POPPY SEEDS Somniferum bulk BAKE

Description

Nutty and pleasant in taste, poppy seeds are nutritious oilseeds used as a condiment in cooking.
Although the seeds obtained from the dry fruits (pods) of the poppy plant (opium poppy), they are entirely free from any harmful side effects
Their unique nutty aromatic flavor is because of many fatty acids and essential volatile oils, which comprise about 50% of net weight.
The seeds are especially rich in
oleic
and
linoleic
acids.
Oleic acid
, a mono-unsaturated fatty acid,
helps lower LDL or "bad cholesterol" and increase HDL or "good cholesterol" levels in the blood. Research studies suggest that
Mediterranean diet which is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids helps to prevent coronary artery disease
and strokes by favoring healthy blood lipid profile.
Poppy seeds outer husk is a good source of
dietary fiber
. 100 g raw seeds provide 19.5 g or 51% of recommended
daily levels (RDA) of fiber. Much of this fiber is metabolically inert content which helps increase the bulk of the food by absorbing water down the digestive tract and thereby easing constipation problem.
Additionally, dietary fiber binds to bile salts (a product of cholesterol) and decrease their reabsorption in the colon.
It thus helps in a further decrease in blood LDL cholesterol levels.
