i am currently on a weight loss diet plan using phen375. I personally dont like the taste of the flax seed so i mix some ground flax seed into my smoothies which i take daily. It actually hides the taste while adding a bit of texture to the smoothie. i am already benefitting from the use of flax seed and i recommend it very highly as a party of any diet!

In a glass – Mix: 2 tablespoons of grounded flaxseed and 3 Table spoons off raw unfiltered apple cider vinegrette. Fill up with water.
If you want to be extra healthy and if you have, lets say acne or maybe some infection going on in your body then add 3-5 drops off grapefruit seed extract.

Drink a glass every day or at least every other day. May sure you have some organic yogurt once in awhile. Because this drink kills bacteria and bugs. The yogurt will add the good bacteria that might also be killed by the drink.

Flaxseeds are truly amazing. I didn’t know that they can even help with acne. The more I read about flaxseeds, the more I learn and the more I am amazed!

The best way to eat flaxseed is to grind whole seeds in a coffee grinder and drink it with milk or water. Do not heat the seeds as it would destroy the natural fatty acids within it. Also, there is no fiber in flaxseed oil.

I like to throw a handful of organic whole almonds (shelled, of course) into the food processor with the flax seeds. The resulting mixture tastes excellent on just about everything….. I even put it in my warm tea in the morning!

Key omega-3 fatty acids including EPA and DHA are found primarily in oily cold-water fish such as tuna…salmon…and mackerel (higher concentrations are found in pure fish oil). Aside from fresh seaweed…a staple of many oriental cultures…plant foods rarely contain EPA or DHA.
