Little help with flax seeds

[Andy_Massaro]

I just picked up a few items from the grocery store to incorporate into my diet, one of them being flax seeds.. I've read online that you should grind them up or something but I dunno..

Any suggestions of what to do with these flax seeds?

thanks

Yes most definately. Use a coffee grinder and put them in your oats, salads etc.. You don't get the benefits of flax seed unless they are gound or chopped up.

Well.... You do get the fibre benefits!

True but from what I know, your body can't digest them properly and you miss out on the nutritional benefits that the seeds provide, well other than fiber lol.
