I was just researching flaxseeds on the net. It's best to buy it in the seed form and grind it into a smoothie. I don't drink smoothies. It can also be bought in the ground form and added to food. Does it have a flavor? It retains some fats which Metamucil does not. I will buy some ground flaxseed and give it a try.
