    i just use it in some recipes to replace some of the white flour (i replace half the white flour with wheat flour and then replace about 1/2 cup of the remaining white with flax) because of the nutritional benefits and added fiber/protein etc.

    I read on livestrong Jillian Micheals Web that 1-3 tablespoons a day is good for weightloss my sister in law just started using ground flax but for other reasons and she told me when she added it to a shake she got really really full. Im gonna try it
