Top 15 Foods for Women’s Health

6. Flaxseed

Flaxseeds are a plant-based source of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, as well as phytoestrogens, nutrients safe for most healthy women. The healthy fats and fiber in flaxseeds also work to keep skin supple and hydrated. Buy whole flaxseed and grind fresh just before using (they need to be ground to be absorbed) to avoid oxidation.
