  1. Hello everyone:

    I am new to the group and have a couple of questions regarding flax seed.

    How much do you use in a day and how do you eat this? I have been using 1
    tbs and was wondering if that was adequate.

    TIA,
    Mimi

  2. 1/4 cup a day is what I was told.

    One needs to be grinding it up, for one thing...then you can sprinkle it
    over salads or mix in it with protein shakes, or mix in with chopped nuts,
    etc, for something crunchy like.

  5. Mix 3 parts ground flax seed, 2 parts chopped mixed nuts, 1 part bran plus a
    good dollop of cinnamon/mixed spice or what have you. 1/2 cup of this, 1 cup
    semi skimmed stir a bit and nuke for 3 min as a breakfast "porridge"

    Recipe courtesy of many others.

    A common mistake that people made when trying to design something completely
    foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
