Whole flax seeds should not be eaten whole!
March 4th, 2010 | by admin |Out of all the forms in which you can buy flax seed, the whole flax seed form has the longest shelf live; this is useful as it allows you to buy in bulk and so make some great savings. There is something you should be aware of however and that is you shouldn’t eat whole flax seeds.
The problem is that if you eat whole flax seed, your body cannot digest them and you fail to obtain all the benefits hidden inside. So, how exactly are you meant to unlock their goodness hidden inside? Well, you have to grind them up (e.g. in a coffee grinder) and then you can put it on your food and hence gain the benefits.
