Benefits of Flax in Your Daily Diet

Why Include foods in your diet which contain Flaxseed Meal such as the organic flaxseed meal in breads AppleJo Farms Registered Nigerian Goats & Micro-Bakery & Goats Milk sells?

Flax is a plant-based food, rich in antioxidants. These can help prevent disease by removing molecules called free radicals from the body.

Free radicals occur as a result of natural processes and environmental pressures. If there are too many free radicals in the body, oxidative stress can develop, leading to cell damage and disease. Antioxidants help remove free radicals from the body.

Flaxseed is a good source of lignans, which appear to have antioxidant properties.

Scientists have also linked omega-3 oils, which are usually present in oily fish, to reductions in cardiovascular risk. Researchers have suggested that flaxseed could offer an alternative to marine sources of omega 3. This could make it a useful resource for people who follow a plant-based diet

According to scientists, flaxseed may be over 800 times richer in lignans than most other foods.

The American Heart Association (AHA) recommends eating more fiber and omega-3s to boost heart health. Lignans, too, may help prevent cardiovascular disease. Flaxseed contains all of these nutrients.

Flaxseed also contains phytosterols. Phytosterols have a similar structure to cholesterol, but they help prevent the absorption of cholesterol in the intestines.

Consuming phytosterols may therefore help reduce levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or “bad,” cholesterol in the body.

Benefits of Sourdough in Your Daily Diet

AppleJo Farms Italian Pizza Crust, Breads and Cookies are also made with Sourdough starter using a traditional fermentation process. Due to this fermentation process, sourdough has some unique health benefits compared to commercial pizza crust. It has prebiotic nutrients which help support your gut health. The fermentation process for sourdough pizza crust & breads can lower the amount of nondigestible carbs in the wheat. This can make the bread easier to digest. Our Pizza Crust and Breads have a lower glycemic index than commercial pizza crust and bread and cookies , making it a better choice for people with diabetes or those watching their health.

Benefits of Farm Fresh Eggs

Eggs from pastured hens & hens which have outdoor runs have twice as much vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids, and half the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids. For reference, a healthy diet should ideally have a ratio of 4:1 omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids. So on nutrient content alone, farm fresh eggs win.

At AppleJo Farms, we've gone even further to ensure our chickens are laying nutrient rich eggs. Our hens are fed alfalfa, fresh greens, probiotics and natural grains. This is why you get eggs with rich orange-yellow yokes and amazing flavor from AppleJo Farms eggs!

Benefits of Goats Milk

Several studies have shown that goat milk proteins have anti‐inflammatory effects, which may benefit people suffering from chronic inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, asthma, and allergies. Goat's milk contains several types of protein, including caseins, whey proteins, and immunoglobulins.

When it comes to incorporating extra protein into your diet, goat milk is an excellent choice. In contrast to many plant-based “milks” that are primarily water supplemented with artificial nutrients, goat milk is a natural nutritional powerhouse.

Double check the ingredient list on your plant “milks.” They often contain added oils like rapeseed or sunflower to mimic the creamy texture of real dairy. By comparison, goat milk is a natural, creamy option without the need for any extra oils.

Beyond their delicious milk, dairy goats play a vital role in sustainable farming. They require significantly less water per gallon of milk produced than most other livestock. Moreover, they emit nearly 20 times less methane per kilogram of body weight compared to dairy cows, contributing to a greener environment.

Raising dairy goats embodies a labor of love, far removed from industrial-sized farming. With their adaptability and eco-friendly qualities, such as resilience to heat, dairy goats could play an important role in the battle against climate change. They exemplify a sustainable and compassionate approach to farming, ensuring both the well-being of the animals and the planet.

Goat milk boasts significantly higher levels of short and medium-chain fatty acids than cow milk. Studies indicate these fatty acids are swiftly digested, offering rapid energy to the body.

Additionally, goat milk is packed with hydration-boosting nutrients like carbohydrates, fat, protein, vitamins, and minerals, which the body takes longer to process. This extended absorption time allows the body to retain fluids, enhancing overall hydration. Goat milk also contains vital electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, crucial for efficient water absorption.

High in Protein. When it comes to incorporating extra protein into your diet, goat milk is an excellent choice. A single 8-ounce serving of our whole milk contains 8g of protein, providing the perfect energy boost for your day. In contrast to many plant-based “milks” that are primarily water supplemented with artificial nutrients, goat milk is a natural nutritional powerhouse.
