When you buy Flax Seeds only buy the whole seed or if it is frozen or packed in nitrogen. Flax seeds go rancid quickly, so the flax seeds that are milled or ground without being packed in nitrogen or frozen are rancid. You can grind our own flax seeds in about a minute with a blender.

Sten berätta mer om dessa linfrö. Jag har börjat med lchf kost och nu efter några veckor är jag hård i magen. Läste att man kan dricka en tesked linfrö me vatten och de ska få igång magen. Kan man koka linfrö? Va menar du me att man ska frysa de?
Do falx seeds increase estrogen,?
What do you suggest about it
I heard that flaxseed it not good for men...lowers testosterone. Is this true?

Possible video showing how to eat chia seeds and flax seeds
I'm 33, on a weight loss journey lifestyle change . I just add ground flax to my smoothies, 1 meal per day and my spicy, lemon water mix. So far I've been loosing a pound per day! My goal is 135 pounds, currently 183.7, started at 187.9 . Wish me luck DOC ✨
Love you 💖 you must have reached your goal by now
Update on your journey?
Good luck! How are you doing to date?
Good luck friend
Do not forgo your protein & fats. Keep carbs at 1 ounce per meal. Two meals a day at 750 calorie per day. Last meal before 5 pm. I dropped from BMI of 29 to 24. Targeting BMI of 22.5. From Mac Donald I only buy their Big Mac triple cheese burgers. No fries, no coke, no milk shake no nothing else. Just weeks ago started roasting flaxseeds enough for 6 to 7days. Then use a 10 dollar mini grinder to grind fine particle size. Put in tight seal mug size container and keep it in freezer. 😁😁😁
We eat flax seed in Ethiopia by adding the grond flx(flour)in water,a little chopped onion and green pepper,salt for taste..served with injera.For stomach problems,we boil the seeds until it becomes jelly..very effective.
Hey fellow brother! Yes indeed. Also add it to “atmit” or a oat drink . Love telba
Thank for the information
It sounds delicious
Injera and telba, love them. But I need gored gored or zilzil ☺️
Wow! Amazing thank you very much for sharing 😊
I buy both seeds. I prefer chia because it turns into a pudding when soaked in milk overnight. I add vanilla extract, cinnamon, plain yogurt, and blueberries. Yummy! I alternate with flax seeds. I grind my own in small amounts with a coffee grinder that I reserve for grinding flax seeds and other less odoriferous nuts. I eat flax with plain yogurt, coconut flakes, cinnamon, and blueberries.
Wow! Nice one😊thsnk you very much for sharing 😊
I do seeds cycling to balance hormones for menopause. Combining flax seeds and pumpkin seeds first 15 days,
sunflower seeds and sesame seeds the next two weeks. Also adding a tablespoon of Chia seeds. It helps a lot with the hot flashes and insomnia during menopause. Just wanted to share that with you Dr. Thanks again for another wonderful video. Liked
Nice I will try giving my wife as she is pious.
Am on it right now, can I repeat the process
@@abhijack.1036 I take a week off in between sometimes when my body is adjusting and not having so many hot flashes during that week I add more cruciferous vegetables to produce more estrogen and progesterone intermittent fasting is an plus during that week. There is a CZcams video call seeds cycling I'm learning a lot from her hope you can find it. Happy and healthy New Year
Thanks for sharing 💟
I can sleep better with plain Chia seeds soak in water with a few pieces of dehydrated mango
I keep my flaxseed powder in the fridge. I have two tablespoons with lots of water in the morning. I experience a huge surge of energy a few minutes later. It is a wonderful superfood.
I put 1/3 cup of organic unsweetened coconut milk into a little mug and mix it with 1 teaspoon of ground flax seeds. It makes me feel like I'm eating regular cereal and milk again! It's an evening treat for me!
I mix almond flour, oatmeal, flax seed, chia seed, blueberries, smashed banana, and an egg or two. I then have a batter which i make and I call my healthy pancakes. They are so good, and good for you.
I put everything in th blender, minus th egg. Ready to go
Recipe?
Cut out the inflammatory flour and will be very healthy.
@@11kwright almond flour is inflammatory??
@@elaine8985 Only if the skin is still on it. Blanch the almonds yourself or buy blanched almond flour.
I mix it in half water & milk. I grind my chia seeds and flax/hemp seeds, add raw honey, mix well in a large bowl. Cover it, then wait until it thickens in the fridge. It is like a pudding. I sometimes add Turmeric and beet root powder. I will also substitute almond, milk, and or coconut milk. I feel very satisfied.
Agreed! It's so satisfying! I do the same minus the honey!
You gained my respect when you said to grind the flax seed… my 80 year old uncle put me unto flax seeds and I was impressed at his elasticity with his age, walked 5 miles up hill and very healthy… I started taking it and with in a week I had my tortícolis gone… no pain… I was sold… grind it weekly put it in anything i add it to my keto granola
Fun enough I saw a video from india, they uses both of these seeds, they recommend to soak it in the water for 12 hours or overnight and have it on the morning in empty stomach, I have done the Chia for past 3 days, it helped my constipation, the mixture of olive oil and figs soaked in for 3 days before consumption are a good answer for the constipation problems, my plan tonight is to soak the flaxseeds over night and use tomorrow, God bless all.
Which worked better for your constipation? Chia or Flaxseed?
If you soak the flax for 12 hours, should they still be grounded or is it able to eat whole?
My mother would always have a pitcher of flax seed water in the refrigerator to drink. She would bring a quart of water to a boil and turn the stove off. She would then add flax seeds to the water and let cool down before pouring into a jar and refrigerating. We would drink the refreshing water when we were thirsty for it. I always loved the drink. At 71 I am still making this drink.
That's another awesome idea to eat flax!Whole flax seed not ground,right?
I don’t ingest the seeds, the oils of the seeds are released into the water.
@@fearnot7500 I don’t ingest the seeds. They release their oil and fall to the bottom of the jar. I discard the seeds once I have drank all the water within a few days.
How much powder do you add ?
I let two tablespoons of chia seeds well in water overnight and drink the gel in the morning. I grind the flaxseeds (also two tablespoons) each time fresh and put them into my oatmeal. And I alternate every other day. Thnx for your vid!
Thanks .. I'm trying that tonight .. maybe I will have nuts / seeds with the gel ... like a sort of muesli
I have until now just added chia in with my seed mix .. I have at least one shot glass of the mix straight per day
I thought that's what your supposed to do.
Eating them dry messes up my stomach
I keep whole organic falxseeds in the fridge not freezer, everyday when I use them I grind 2 tablespoons fresh and add it to my nutribullet, is this a good method? thank you :)
@@silverscreenization Personally, I don't put the seeds in the fridge. I keep them in an airtight container and they stay fresh till I finished them. But I'm also not a professional flaxseed-expert 😉
How does it help? Does this help for people trying to loose weight?
I add ground flax and chia seeds to my veggie omelette, oatmeal, yogurt n fruit, smoothies, salads and soups; sometimes when I'm making certain Indian snacks I add a few tablespoons to the batter.
Thank you Dr. Ekberg for these valuable information; God bless you 🙏🌹
I make ‘Flaxseed muffin in a mug’ by mixing 1/4 cup of ground flaxseeds, 1 tsp baking powder, 2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp coconut oil then adding the dry ingredients to 1 large beaten egg in a mug, mixing until well blended. Place in a microwave and set it for about 90 secs. Turn out onto a cooling rack. I usually cut the muffin in half and spread each half with a thick layer of cream cheese. Yummy!!!
I will try today thank you!
Tks Sue Nicholls for the recipe.Ill try it tomorrow for my breakfast.
Flaxseed ground every day with yogurt keeps me with energy.
Microwaving it makes it unfortunately unhealthy
maybe try the air fryer? i would add caco
Thanks for sharing! I’m going to try this week.
I have a coffee grinder I use solely for flax seeds. I just grind enough to use immediately.
Never knew i could freeze ground flax seeds. I usually just refrigerate it. My morning concoction is 1 tsp of ground flax seed + half tsp ground chia seeds + few drops of fresh lemon + pinch of himalaya salt + pre blended fresh ginger with fresh beetroot juice which i warm to medium temperature. Gives me amazing energy and avoids constipation.
I grind the seeds myself and mix with milk or kefir and let it rest for 30 mins and then eat as a pudding, maybe adding some cinnamon or vanilla for flavoring
I blend a tble spoon of flex seeds and add into a glass of warm water,add a juice of lemon,a tsp of honey and drink every morning.helps with cholestrol.
Be careful with flex seeds, flexing is not always that safe. And it also seems to be anything warm or especially hot among with flax seeds is not the best combination
The way my mother taught me is; put the flax seeds in water overnight in the refrigerator then in the morning I can take about two spoons and eat it. Its amazing, my life change after I started doing that. I consume chai too but that one you can have it however you wanted and benefit from the properties.
what benefits can you say you have seen when taking the seeds
Flaxseed is a staple food in Eritrea/Ethiopia. Grounded into powder, used for stew, hot drinks and condiments. I have it every night as hot drink with a little lemon juice and cinnamon - it's a beverage and a dessert in one!
እውነት ነው ትክክል That's True 🇪🇹💚💛❤️🇪🇷💯👍
I was blind as a bat, I started eating both seeds, and I don’t wear glasses anymore 🤷♀️
can you elaborate more about this
@@shyannebarretto9096 I also take cod oil capsules it works with the eye sight
We add 1 cup of hot water to 1/2 cup oatmeal, 2-3 heaping tsps of flax seed (powdered), blueberries and/or rasberries, cover and soak for 15 minutes. Super yum!
Thank You LisaR Nichols. Sounds great 😄
Eu uso água fria e acrescento casca de laranja triturada e cacau.. fica ótimo para o meu gosto!
if you want to grind flax seeds or chia seeds get a mortar and pestle - 20 seconds and you're done. Works like a charm.
Thank you Damremont18.
Should you do this before putting them into smoothies for blending?
@@6toolbaseball if you’re putting the seeds into a blender with other ingredients, a decent blender should eliminate the need for a motor and pestle.
@@6toolbaseball I blender my whole seed then put it in an (opaque) container then into the fridge. I've had comments in vids to freeze it. Now I do. As long as I can still sprinkle/spoon it into my food! ✌😷
Coffee grinder is perfect
Just made myself an oatmeal with ground chia and flax seed. Delicious
I do it everyday for my breakfast. you can add 1 sqeezed lemon. Its very satisfying.
I use organic flaxseed, not from the, farmers market, but, from Walmart. I use it in both, oatmeal and smoothies, which is, surely the reason, why, I run to the bathroom, regularly.
Just want to give a heads up on flax. It goes rancid very quick after being ground, and goes rancid even faster when it is heated. I do not recommend any "breads" made from flax especially if they have been heated in a microwave.
So... Oh that's interesting. We've been adding flax seeds to our bread dough.... Is that not a good idea then do you think?
@@keramiroberts6695 I just saw your message. If you are using the whole seed it is fine, but I wouldn't bake with it because it is a waste. The whole seed just goes through you with no benefits. Heating the ground flax seeds is worse though as it goes rancid very quickly.
I have seen a video of a doctor saying that we must roast or sprout Flax seed to remove the phytic acid from it. Is it necessary?
@drekberg
I also have the same question. And I bought it from the store ，do I need to wash it?
I love making organic Keto chia seed “pudding” - chia seeds, raw sprouted unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened coconut cream, Madagascar vanilla powder, unsweetened shredded coconut, a tiny pinch of Himalayan salt. You can top it with a bit of raw sprouted dehydrated pecans and or Ceylon cinnamon. Easy to make, delicious, and Keto.
In an attempt to help lower my blood pressure, I mix ground flaxseed with applesauce & add a scoop of beet powder. It tastes great, really masks the dirt taste of the beet powder & over the course of 3 months it has lowered my blood pressure!
Magnesium would be even more beneficial to you in regards to BP. Huge link between magnesium deficiency and BP.
Yep. I put Flax Seed, Chia Seeds and Hemp Seeds in with my juicing every day. I also add Turmeric, Ginger, Black pepper. Blueberries, Strawberries, Black Cherries, Mango, Pineapple, Raspberries, Bananas. All that blended with almond milk. It takes effort to stay healthy but well worth it.
I make a smooth in the morning starting putting a tablespoon flaxseed, some almonds, two wall nuts, some grinded hymalayasalt and a cup of water.. Than I grind that all together. When everything is smooth, I put frozen Kale, fresh spinach and other green vegatables, a peace of carottes, a banana, an apple part and also a handful organ oats.. Let this all together grind again and I assure you, you will have a wonderful smooth, full of vitamins and taste.. The flaxseed I cannot find back in my smoothly so, very easy to grind it at the beginning of the smooth.. 👍👍👍
L
Thanks for the recipe ! I think the "smooth making" comes about 8-12 hours after drinking your healthy concoction, at least it does for me. 😉
I put them with other protein and berries in my smoothie every day. My high speed blender pulverizes them well so they are easily digested. I store them in the fridge. Love them! Great energy and gives my smoothie extra heft.
Thank you Madame b.ry
I mix 1 /2 teaspoon of ground flaxseed into organic applesauce. Since this is my first time eating ground flax seeds and am almost eighty, I am beginning with small portions to see if I have any side effects. Thank you Dr. Ekberg for the information on freezing ground flax seed.
I am having my chia and flax while I am watching this video. I am proud of myself 😊😊😊
I thought I was the only one who mixed both
🤣👏👏👏
Same haha
I have been eating flax seed and chia seeds for years, I just grind flax seeds in coffee grinder as I need them so they are always freshly ground, I make a pudding with chia seeds, just add protein powder , water and chia seeds and let sit in fridge until set
This is helpful information. I knew that ground flax and chia can go rancid if stored at room temperature for long periods of time. Oxidative risk occurs after seeds are ground; therefore, I do not purchase ground flax seeds. Heat and light are particularly detrimental.
According to many sources, flax and even chia should be freshly ground to maximize the nutritional benefits. I grind a 50/50 blend of whole flax/chia and store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for no longer a few days. I use two tablespoons in yogurt, keto cereals, smoothies, et al.
I store the whole seeds in their original packages inside freezer bags in the freezer. I remove only the amount needed to grind more seeds.
These two seeds are very cheap in my country Sri Lanka. I also know about this. I love you doctor. You are such a doing a motion
Thank you anu sky is limit.
How do you take this flaxseed? Do you freeze them?
Sri Lanka is an awesome country.
@@creativesource3514 thanks a lot , I'm from srilanka too🙏🏼
Love making chia puddings and adding chia and flaxmeal to my overnight oats.
Wow you're a cutie pie are you single
I soaked oatmeal overnight then I add chia seed, flaxseed, one banana, peanut, a quarter teaspoon of cinnamon dates (optional)water blend all together, That is my breakfast every day it's amazing, keeps me full till lunch sometimes dinner. Thank you Doctor.
And it's actually helping with weight loss as well.
I can buy a pound of whole flax seeds for under $2.00 at Dekalb Farmers Market in Atlanta, GA. Then grind the flax seeds in about a minute. How to grind your flax seeds > czcams.com/video/mGzKjR5bdbI/video.html
I toasted flax seed to eat as snack. It is so yummy that I can't stop eating :) try it for yourself.
I also use more flax seeds .and i love to have roasted flax seeds😊😊😍
What about the smell
You should try flax seeds and chia seeds. They are super cheap and very healthy.
Can we eat both of them same time or same day
ok
Dr. Ekberg, would flaxseeds raise the estrogen level?
So how about flaxseed chia, with other nuts in many Wonderbread recipes? Is that a good way to use grinding flax?
My question too,can we eat them at the same time and in what amounts@@naziastarot
Mixed berry smoothy - 2 tablespoons of chia and flax in 3/4 cup cranberry juice for 30 minutes -- add 1 cup of mixed frozen berries - teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and a half teaspoon of cinnamon(cassia) or 1 tsp of ceylon cinnamon and blend. I find it to be an amazing start to the day.
I ground one cup of chia and one cup of flax seeds together into the blender and placed in the glass jar and keep in the fridge for later. Put 2 tablespoons with half glass of water mix well and drink. It’s easy to swallow and I love it.
I have started using flaxseeds through various heathy forms of smoothies.
Mm hmm
I grind each of them into powder and I put the open bags in the freezer in a ziplock bag and add a spoon full of each to my oatmeal.
@@Smileeen I think she means once the sealed bag is opened she then keeps it in the freezer…
As i watch this i am eating a pudding Vitamix send me the recipes lastnight ani and I made it for breakfast.
Almond milk
Almonds
Chia seeds
Strawberries
Dates
Banana
I add some pumpkin seeds and fruits for breakfast. Thank you for reminding me how valuable these seeds are. Health to all. Much blessings
I used 1 tsp.of flaxseed for my banana oatmeal Doc.👍❤😊everyday👍
I use a coffeegrinder for the flax seeds ,done in a few seconds,use them straith away in my smoothy.I use Sunflower seeds non grinded ,in my yogurt with oats.Might get the chia seeds also for variation.
The easiest way I found is to add both whole flax seed and chia seeds into my smoothie before processing. My Nutribullet 900 has no problem pulverizing these. This is the easiest way to consume imo.
Same. I like the white chia seeds and I also add hemp seeds. What else do you put into your smoothie? I add almond milk, walnuts, almond butter and protein powder. Some frozen blueberries and a few pieces of frozen organic pineapple however the fruit is not a great idea due to the carbs.
I mix 2 Tbsp of ground flaxseeds into my oatmeal with milk and honey. Sometimes I put raisins, walnuts or cashews with it. Before I had flaxseeds, i could not bend my knees nor were high heels and had pain walking. I tried joint pills, cream, patches but didn't help. Flaxseed is the only thing that gets rid of my knee pain. I grind the seeds and freeze it.
You might try getting rid of the milk and honey. They both have a lot of sugar which contributes to arthritis pain.
I soak chia seeds with almond milk in the refrigerator. Stir it up good first. Later, add spoonfuls of the resulting pudding to whatever you like.
Nice video- I feed my horse both flax seeds and chia seeds- and I eat them both too- I really enjoy making chia pudding- a tasty dessert
The seeds that go into my smoothie.
Chia seeds
Flax seeds
Black sesame seeds
pumpkin seeds
sunflower seeds
Hemp seeds
All ground up. Thats's just the seeds that go in, then all the other goodies. spices ,Berries, green leafy ect...........
Big up for hemp seeds 👍👍
Show off 🙄
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Add sweet basil seeds. I make a six seed crackers with with psyllium husks. Great snack
I’ve been putting chia and ground flax in my smoothies for years and years, yet I never knew why. I literally think I saw the seeds in a grocery store one day maybe 7 years ago and I never stopped using them. My body has reacted well. Especially as a vegetarian, I need as much nutrient-dense food as possible.
Thanks for the video explaining WHY.
An easy way to grind up a few spoons of whole flax seeds when needed; use a mortar & pestle 🙂
A coffee grinder is awesome
Flax.. High estrogen.
@@Kitiwake I hope he addresses this
@@karinpattinson7904 Have two grinders: one for coffee, one for seeds and spices.
@@Kitiwake o quê é estrogênio??🤔🤔🤔
I love both seeds! Often add chia in a glass of water and drink during the day. Tack så mycket Dr. Ekberg!
Nice, I just bought some milled flaxseed and didn't know about the rancidity. Putting the remainder in the freezer now! I typically add mine to my protein smoothies, so frozen flax should help keep the drink chilled nicely.
i crush 4 tablespoons of flaxseed in a mixer, and I mix with 4 tablespoons of chia, 4tbsps of sunflower seed and 4tbsps of pumpkin seed. Then I put that min in the freezer and add two tbsps of it everyday along with 1 tbsp of tahini. Yummy! Sometimes, I toast a thin slice of homemade dinkel bread and add a thin layer of sheep butter, then tahini and then sprinkle some of that mix. That is so delicious!
Just started adding chia seeds to my hot chocolate. I use organic cacao, grass fed milk, Teaspoon of raw honey, pinch of clove, ginger, cayenne, and cinnamon. Soak the seeds in the milk for 2p min before warming the milk up.
thanks for the video. I have been using flaxseed for years knowing the benefits. I would recommend buying whole flaxseed, and grinding what you're going to use at the time so that there's no chance of the oils going rancid. I myself make flaxseed smoothies.
It is traditionaly used two ways. 1 flax seed boiling it. You boil one spoon of flax seed and leave it for the night and in the morning stir it and drink with empty stomach. 2 Roasted and grinding it and eat it with anything you like. Mostly mix with cold water and salt and eat with bread. You can also mix with warm water and drink.
I put on my salads hemp seed, chia seeds , flax seeds through coffee grinder and dried out and ground avocado seed with some MCT and flax oil. Really nice.
avocado seed ?
....?
Thanks 😊 you can also make bread with flaxseeds & black seeds. Chiaseeds a few spoon can be put in a water bottle keep in the fridge add some to your daily water or juice.
Dr. Ekberg ... thanks for the info. But are the side effects for both seeds please - Grace - Kenya
i put chia (soaked of course) in my iced coffee or milk tea.
I soak two table spoons of chia seeds into porridge or warm water stir it for five minutes then drink in an empty stomach.
Cup chia and cup of flex seeds mixed with 4cups almost flour one pkg yest two eggs and two oz butter makes great bread. I do not care for coconut flour but I like coconut milk you can use coconut milk if you like
Strange!
I put 3 scoops of chia on my thermo, fill up with water and let it soak for 5 mins but you must shake it so it doesn’t go to the bottom. The chia seeds get bigger and produce a mucus like substance. It really fills you up.
Just made cookes with flax seeds and nuts ,instead suger I used honey,1 egg ,2 spoons olive oil,vanilla drops,cocco nibs.So good
CZcams suggested this right as I'm snacking on both of these in a nut and seed mix I made👍. The algorithm can be scarily accurate at times. I appreciate the information, and this channel.
When he said 1.99 a pound I had to look at the date of this vid.
Easy way for Chia is podding
Once cup of almond milk 4 tables spoons chia seeds...
Pint glass jar...shake refrigerator and shake a few times during refrigeration...
Add honey, maple syrup or fruit...delicious 😀
I use flaxseed powder in my soups, and I add it to my chili. 1 tbsp of flaxseed powder and 2 tbsp of water is equivalent to 1 egg. I also grind chia seeds and add it to my smoothies 😋
Thank you Dr. Ekberg I have been using ground flaxseed and kept it in a glass jar at room temperature! I will buy the seeds from now on and grind them myself . Thank you very much for your great advice!
I used every day two tables of flake seed and one table of chia with my smoothies. I mixes
One cup of spinach
Two spoons 🥄 of flak seed
One 🥄 of chia
1/2 of avocado 🥑
1 banana🍌
Five walnuts
Five almonds
One spoon 🥄 of Greek yougart.
Problem with yogurt that it has high level of sugar.
@@maliciousconspiracy1448, it’s called Greek yogurt which can have the minimum of 4 grams of sugar which is not a lot :)
I mix white Chia seeds, say 20%, with hone made full fat milk Kefir, which also contains fermented fruit (eg Plums) and nuts (eg Brazil Nuts) and Seeds (eg Pepitas). Leave in the refrigerator for a couple of days or more. Turns the Kefir into a creamy porridge. YUM
I grind both chia and linseed into flour and I make bread. Third cup chia, third sunflower, third pumpkin seed ground, third linseed and three eights of a cup sesame seed ground, 3 Tablespoons psyllium husks whole and add 1 tsp bicarb.
Then add 8 beaten eggs.
Then add one sachet yeast which brew up IN THE BEGINNING (brew for about 15 mins with 1 cup warm water and one teaspoon cane or beet sugar.)
Mix all well with hand blender, put in greased baking tin in 70c oven to rise for an hour.
Bake for 1 hour at 200c
Thanks! I'd have loved a comparison with hemp too. You can bake flax only bread, same with chia flour. I am planning out a keto vegan 4 day rotation with macadamia nuts, flax, hemp, and chia. Good for the heart, good for the brain, good for the karma...!
This sounds amazing. Please post full recepie.
Chia gives energy and strength. I sprinkle it on my oatmeal. Had many benefits!
I use chia and flax seeds in my daily baked brown bread
I grind the flaxseed in my coffee grinder and only grind what I am going to use right away. It works great!
Flaxseed is very good for reduced cholesterol. I have used it many years
Thank you.
I sprinkle it on my oatmeal, it’s very good.
Can we add both Flax seeds and Chia seeds to the same meal? If ok, what ratio need to be used?
Thank you. Best wishes for good health!
I make a flax muffin 1/3 cup 1 egg 1 tsp of baking powder I do occasionally add 1 tsp of pure vanilla Ceylon cinnamon. 😋
Put the Flax / linseed in a pepper mill and add to your food as and when. Fannying about with freezers and ziplock bags is an unnecessary ball ache. I add Chia and Flax / Linseed to Lentil soup along with pumpkin seeds, Cumin, Cayenne Pepper, Black Pepper, Turmeric, and Smoked Paprika.
I buy flax already ground but haven’t put them in the freezer, thanks for the tip.
This is my new favorite channel. Love all of your videos. Thank you.
So glad you are enjoying it. We will keep life saving information coming your way.
Do u have to put after Granite them in the freezer bc I put in my kitchen cabinets
I buy the whole flax and chia, then lightly "crack" the seeds in a Margo Molina flour mill when I am ready to use it...because the seeds have the high oil content they have a tendency to foul the grinding burs...it's not too bad if I do a light crack, the mill doesn't foul as bad, and it's not too hard to clean the mill afterwards (keeping the seeds frozen helps too); just enough to break the shell, then let digestion do the rest...(the worst is sesame seeds, they really gum up the machine; cracking them when they are frozen really helps)...but I will run some 5-grain cereal through the machine, after cracking the seeds, to clean the burs...(and Bob's Red Mill 5-grain cereal with flax makes really good flour)...
In the morning I have 2 tablespoons of chia soaked in soya milk with bran and berries….it keeps me regular and gives me energy
Feeling backed up? These will clean you out.
is it as useful as omega 3 in salmon?
@@MiaDV I wanna know this too, I believe chia are superior though.
clean you out, but does it give you diarrhea???
Great info on the chia and flax, thank you.
Dễ 👍
I make "seed cereal" with both.
I put in 2 tbs of whatever seeds I have. Then 1 tbs of chia and 1 tbs of ground flax. I add berries in there.
My milk mixture is protien powder and milk. Somtimes I add germ in there. Keeps me full for hours.
I’m using both in my smoothies. I use the flax I grind and use in my yogurt. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much Dr. Sten, I use flax ground seed with yogurt or mike as well 👌🏻
Am sure Mike loves it 😉
What is your opinion about vacuum-sealing flax and/or chia seeds, and storing at room temperature?
SuperPussyFinger , I find storing in the refrigerator-works well.
I just found an oatmeal I love with both Flax and chia seeds in them and dark chocolate! It's something I love to eat in the morning for breakfast and makes feel extremely energetic! 🎉🥰
Sprouting and stone ground eliminates most of the oxidation concerns and enhances bioavailability immensely in a number of ways
I mix in with my ground meat as a binder then add seasoning.
Way better than bread crumbs😄
I use it in my meatloaf to sneak nutrients into my family ❤️
Thats a great idea, how much do you use?
I add 1 tablespoon of Chia with 1 tablespoon of grounded flax seeds to a glass of milk and drink it in the morning as my breakfast. so good.
Is it hot milk or cold...appreacite your response...thank u..
Flax powder for baking is good fiber along with almond flour and coconut flour.
I make my own kefir, so to a cup or kefir I add a handful of blueberries, another handful of walnuts, a spoon of nutritional yeast, a spoon of ground flax, a half of a green apple finely chopped, and top off with ceylon cinnamon. Sometimes this is my breakfast, or can also be my dinner.
