    Flax or Cream

    Ok, so, when cutting, is Flax a better choice for fat in protein shakes than heavy whipping cream? Cream tastes a gazillion times better!

    Lol, though I am able to mix flax with tuna, but I prefer mayo . Other than shakes and tuna, I really don't know what else to mix flax with...atleast that I could tolerate.

    My grandma LOVES flax and can't get enough. She grows it in the backyard and harvests the seeds to make breads, soups, pudding pops, muffins. She says it helps her digestion and makes her feel good since flax is in the Bible. She reads her Bible out loud every morning til noon and says "flax" real loud when she comes across that word. Anyways, she grinds up the seeds in her flax machine and it smells good like hickory sticks.

    Lenny: Pfft, forget it, Homer. While it has been established that eggs contain cholesterol, it has not yet been proven conclusively that they actually raise the level of serum cholesterol in the human
    blood stream.

    Oh my rod, hickory sticks reminds me of the verse "spare not the rod". I use to get my fanny tanned by my poppa with a hickory stick when I dropped his beer from the refrigerator or didn't have spare change to help him buy cigarettes. Do you know that verse Rod?

    Ignoring taste....which as a BB or fitness enthusiast we often are forced to do...flax oil is a much better choice the heavy cream.

    If you're looking for the digestive qualities of flax, purchase some ground flax seed and try adding it to your oatmeal...it has a nutty taste.
    Searching for the right balance...
