How much flax seed is allowed?

February 21, 2007, 07:26 PM

I have been making flax seed muffins for breakfast this week, but I'm worried that this is not a good idea. I don't know the rules on how much of it is allowed. It doesn't seem to bother my tummy, so is it okay to have muffins for breakfast. I would think that I have 1.5-2.5 tablespoons of flax in each and I eat two topped with cream cheese.

Re: How much flax seed is allowed?

In induction, flaxseed is allowed for constipation only. If you don't suffer from this you should wait for the nuts/seeds rung of OWL. If you do have a prob in induction, Dr A advised 1-2 tablespoons as necessary, increasing only if you still have problems.
