Is flaxseed/meal limited?

[WheresMeFeet]

I've just made the microwave pizza crust using 2 tbls of flaxmeal.

I'm sure I've read somewhere that we have to limit flaxmeal to 2 tbls per day?
Is this correct or not?

Asking because I'm greedy and might want to make to another pizza later!!

For daily fiber supplementation
Chapter 8: "I recommend that you take one tablespoon of psyllium husks daily. Be sure to select a sugar-free product. You can also take one tablespoon of coarse wheat bran or flaxseed meal."

For relief of constipation
Chapter 11: "If you are constipated, mix a tablespoon or more of psyllium husks in a cup or more of water and drink daily. Or mix ground flaxseed into a shake or sprinkle wheat bran on a salad or vegetables."

So there is a limit set forth in the book. Again, if you use the flax as a food, then the On-Going Weight Loss phase is the appropriate phase to do that. During Induction it's only used as a fiber supplement or as a constipation reliever in the amounts specified in the book.
