"I use this for Omega-3s and fiber although don't kid yourself, your body does not convert vegetable sources of Omega-3s all that well. But it has other nutrients & fiber plus it tastes excellent in some yogurt with berries & a banana. Also good in a smoothie."

"After ordering a 2 lb bag of this, I was told (then verified by doing some research) that flax degrades VERY quickly once it's crushed. Bummer. I didn't want to have to buy whole seeds then grind them, I did that before. Too much work so early in the morning. I stored this 2 lb bag in my freezer which was kind of a pain mainly because I kept forgetting to eat it. I put it in with my hot rice cereal in the mornings and too much makes the whole thing really slimy. I've since switched to fish oils for my omega 3."

"I've heard that the body can't process whole flax seeds, so I purchase the ground version. I sprinkle it atop my cereal every morning, and sometimes sneak a little into a cake here and there. It's supposed to do wonders for the human body."
