  • flax seed and essential oils

    Since the fiber (like flaxmeal, wheat bran, psyllium) absorbs the fat in our guts, should we take the essential oils at a diferent time, so they won't be absorbed by the fiber?

      Thanks 2big, I knew you were going to answer!

      So flax won't absorb the essential oil capsules I take?

      Does the flax or any kind of fiber really absorbs the fat in our guts?

        fibers absorb water and things get trapped in the bundles of fibers and carried out. that is how oat bran removes cholesterol.

        so in theory you are losing some of everything you take with your high fiber foods and/or supplements. that is why they tell folk not to take thier meds with high fiber foods.
