Purpose of Review

Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent metabolic disorder contributing to significant global health challenges. As interest in alternative therapies grows, flaxseed rich in omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and fiber has garnered attention for its potential role in diabetes management.

Recent Findings

The reviewed literature suggested that various components present in flaxseeds are known to combat impaired carbohydrate metabolism including the other associated diabetic abnormalities like oxidative stress markers, inflammation, and hypercholesterolemia.

Summary

Taken together, this review has highlighted the essential constituents of flaxseed and their potential mechanisms in reducing fasting blood glucose levels, alleviating oxidative stress, balancing lipid profiles, and regulating inflammatory markers in individuals with diabetes. Flaxseed, whether consumed whole or in various processed forms, may serve as a complementary therapy alongside conventional antidiabetic medications.
