Flax meal is also great mixed into yogurt with a little Da Vinci syrup for flavour.

I was originally reccommended linseeds to help with constipation in the first week of the atkins. Since then they have been sitting there doing nothing. They were nearly thrown away, luckily I found this place first.

I have tried linseeds ground up with black peppercorns to add flavour to salads as I am not a big fan of salad dressings. It worked better than I thought it would :D

I eat the stuff for breakfast
 
I buy "Golden Linseed" from Julian Graves and grind about 50g at a time in a coffee grinder. Used to nuke it with milk but have given up dairy so now use just water. Not as nice but is edible. Was nicer also mixed half and half with ground almond from same shop, but a bit too high in carbs.
Might try mixing it with whey protein...
It does keep things regular, all that fibre is better than the psyllium husks I used to take, at least I think that's what it was called.
Julian Graves is pretty good if there's one near you. Bigger bags and cheaper than GNC and Holland and Barrett for all sorts of nuts, seeds and things.
