Flax seed Meal...what are the benefits?

aliveandfree22 · October 2011

Today I was shopping and saw Flax seed Meal for pretty cheap.
I'm curious if people here use it, and what you guys mix it with.
Also, what are the benefits and how much/ how often should I have it with my meals?

Thanks!!

It's a great source of fiber! I made flaxseed muffins, add it to pancakes, and I've heard of people mixing it in with yogurt. 2 Tbsp is usually one serving, with that you get 4g fiber.

my usual breakfast meal is full of good calories, protein, fiber & antioxidants! and it's super delish & filling!
i mix flax seeds in with my granola cereal and add that to my greek yogurt with strawberries & blueberries
