Shall you eat whole or ground sesame seeds?

I think it doesn't matter but if you eat whole flax seeds you have to chew them well. The outside of flax seed is too hard to break apart by chewing and whole flax seed is not properly digested to get out the nutrients. The recommendation is to use either flax seed oil to use already ground flax seed.


How do you eat flax seed?

Flax seeds must be finely ground into a meal to get the maximum benefits from the omega-3 oil and dietary fiber. You can use a coffee grinder and dedicate its use to grinding flax seeds. Once ground, the flax seeds should be consumed quickly, because the oil in the seeds oxidizes rapidly. Try to consume 2 tablespoons of ground flax seed daily, and make sure you drink plenty of water when adding flax seed to your diet. Ground flax seed can easily be mixed into salad dressing, or added on top of dishes including salads, stir-fry, soup, stews, and cereal. Flax seeds are 35-40% oil, so a similar amount of oil may be omitted from any recipe requiring oil that also includes ground flax seeds. Similarly, about 1 tablespoon of ground flax seeds steeped in 3 tablespoons of warm water for 2-3 minutes will substitute for one egg in recipes.

What is the best way to eat flax seed?

Flax seeds can be eaten whole, ground or as flax oil. It is usually recommended that the seeds be ground for maximum benefit, otherwise the seeds may simply pass through the digestive system, whilst flax seed oil contains only some of the nutrients of flax, having neither the fiber nor the phytochemicals of the whole seed.


Is eating a lot of raw flax seed bad?

Yes; I wouldn't do that. In great excess, flax seeds can get lodged in your appendix, precipitating appendicitis or cause an intestinal blokage. Try grinding them in a blender or a coffee grinder first. Flax is extremely heart healthy. Super rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, flax can be of great benefit to those with high cholesterol. If you've got diverticulosis, you should never eat little seeds of ANY kind. Try Flax oil instead.
