Ground Flax Seed | Manitoba Milling Co | One 12.35 oz Bag | Smooth Milled Flaxseed Fiber with Protein, Omega 3 | Gluten Free, Non-GMO Gourmet Milled Flaxseed for Muffins, Yogurt, Smoothies

I bought this to try because being a woman "of a certain age" I've been dealing with hot flashes for nearly 30 years as I refuse to take any hormone replacement -- I figured since women for centuries dealt with hot flashes....so could I. Keep one thing in mind, ladies, not all doctors will tell you this but when you start going through the change some of you will have hot flashes for a few months, some for a few years, and some very "special" ones (like myself) have the privilege and joy of living with them for the rest of our lives! Thank goodness for nature!!! Flaxseed does help, although it doesn't eliminate them by any means. I've been buying whole flaxseed and pulverizing it in my bullet to add to my protein shakes as whole flax seeds do not digest, but only run right through your system. No matter how much I tried to chop them up, though, there were still "husks" which I'd have to rinse out of my mouth. When I saw this flaxseed powder I thought I'd give it a try. I use a tablespoon in each protein drink, making two a day to ensure I get enough protein, and flaxseed is high in Omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, antioxidants, AND gives you additional protein. I like that it's an American company owned by women, even if they do get most of their flaxseed from north of our border! I was so pleased when I opened the package and saw that, in fact, it really was powder...no husks because it's so finely milled! It mixes wonderfully in my protein shake and doesn't add any taste to speak of. I would recommend this to anyone thinking of using flaxseed. Nature IS our best medicine!

Nice consistency. blends well into smoothie.

I’ve been buying this product for 4 years and I’m always satisfied. It’s the best ground flax seed I’ve tried.

I've been using this product for over a year now. I like the consistency and quality of the product. My quibble is more around the "NEW LOOK" change in packaging a few months ago. The package simply does not close tightly, like the previous package did. So I have to press it down, twist the top down a couple times and use a clip to keep it closed. Manitoba Milling Co., if you read this review, please ensure the company that you source these packages from is made aware.

Very smooth and tasteful! I really Enjoy mixing it in my smoothies.

I add this to smoothies, protein drinks, and hot cereals for extra fiber and omegas. Its flour-like consistency dissolves much better than most flax meal. It can also be used as a thickener and even mixed with water to use like eggs as a binder in baked goods, although I haven’t yet tried that. Highly recommend.

I've been putting this in my morning protein shakes for a long time. Solid buy, great taste, always fresh, wonderful quality.

Mixes well in smoothies and great for making yogurt bowls
