    do i have this right

    if im using flax as a supplement then i dont need to count the carbs but if im using it as a food then i do? i just read a recipe and it said people add it for a breading texture and to count the carbs then..

    just wondering ive been taking the pill (oil)form so i havent counted the carbs

    No, you count the carbs to every food and drink you put eat of drink throughout the day. Just because you are using flax as a fiber supplement doesn't mean you don't count it towards your daily carbs.

        If you're taking flax OIL pills, they shouldn't have any carbs.....it's oil, just like any other except gross tasting
