The bob's red mill flaxmeal that I have - according to the website - actually has 1.33 g of soluble fiber and 2.67 g insoluble fiber - so I do count the 1.33 g of carbs from the total carbs on the nutritional info (4 g carbs and 4 g fiber...so i count the 1.33 which is insoluble)...

the question I have - does anyone out here in ADDB land incorporate flax seed meal on a DAILY BASIS? And - if you do - what is your weight loss like?

Just curious if anyone has noticed any benefits of any kind by using them daily. thanks!!
I used to eat flax everyday. Then after doing my own research on flax, I decided it wasn't something I wanted to expose my body to on a regular basis. Also, I found that moving to OWL Phase eliminated the need for any additional fiber supplements and I could find Omega 3 sources elsewhere.

But it's a personal decision and I came to mine after reading alot of flax industry-sponsored material and non-flax industry-sponsored material.
