flax seed benefits with weight loss

Flax seed is generally considered a good diet supplement for omega 3 and other good stuff - for humans. Is it good to add to dog food, either canned or home cooked? I suppose if you dog eats Kibble with water some could be mixed in there too.

Hello -- I have been trying to find out whether consuming flax seed would interfere with the efficacy of the taxol / herceptin treatments that I am receiving for my breast cancer. I understand from a study done at the University of Toronto that flax seed may help to eliminate breast cancer. However, I would not want to consume anything that would interfere with my regular medical treatment. The cancer is in the left side of my lymph system. It is estrogen-receptor and HER-2 positive.

My period has been regular ( 28-31 day cycle), however after starting to take flax seed I am now second month in a row experiencing the delay in my period. I have had a mild hormonal acne, hence after reading a lot, I thought I will give flax seed a go, however last month my period was delayed by a week and now it is 3 days late again. Thank you!

I wonder whether you will throw similar light on the use of Flax seed and Flax seed oil.There are many websites on the internet. If important aspects are given in a simple manner, it will prove useful to all community members.Dr.Budwig protocol is also an important work on Flax seed.Please do write on this subject. Thanks.

I used flax seed meal for helping me keep my weight up, putting it into smoothies, oatmeal, etc. It makes wonderful cornbread. Check out this post: http://www.medhelp.

I'm sorry you were sick! Congrats on the weight loss (if you wanted to lose)! Yes, it sure sounds like things are leveling out. I hope it stays that way!

does anyone here use this on a daily basis? i've read a lot of good things about it and we just got some. we bought ground flax seed... but we haven't used it yet. can anyone tell me any other things about it i may not have read or possible different ways that you use it? thank you.

I have tried different brands of fish oil on different occassions as well as my husband. I wished I could take it for the health benefits; but, in our case, it causes digestive upset such as bloating and gas. So, I've replaced fish oil with flax seed oil and we do not experience the gas and bloating we had with fish oil. In my case, I feel much better on flax seed oil, emotionally as well as physically.

s bread is potato with whole flax seed, ground flax seed and HEMP seed, with whole wheat. I just finished shaping it into loaves. Should be gooood.

Blend flax seed in coffee blender, mix with peanut or almond butter, and eat on an apple with a glass of milk. This was all I could stomach that early.

thanks, I will start using flax seed again, had stopped during tx. I usually grind them and sprinkle them over my food and salads etc...

15lbs in 2 months is almost 2lbs a week. That is very fast weight loss which is difficult and can be dangerous. 2: you're young and probably still growing, so any weight loss can be dangerous if not done without consulting a doctor. 3: I don't think you need to loose weight period. Using your sex, height and weight the BMI calculator I use says you're at 22BMI. A healthy BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9.

ll be making around half my meals from oats, wheat germ, crushed flax seed, almonds, raisins, and honey, - with some chia thrown in if I can get it from a good, cheap source - all mixed together in a nutritious, delicious, liver-friendly goop that reminds me fondly of what I was once served in a San Francisco lock-up when I was busted for vagrancy in the days before I was old enough to have a draft card. The honey makes it palatable. M.

Supplement the diet with high calorie smoothies using a variety of fruits and crushed ice ,milk and flax seed oil, flax supplies a healthy form of fat.Enjoy meals as a family making eating a fun activity he will want to do .good Luck let us know how he gets on .

There seems to be way more info out now, than there was years ago. I heard that Riba does better when taken with fats. Flax seed oil capsules good? They have Omega 3. How much fat? Would a small container of whole milk do it? I am grateful to be on Tx and grateful that this forum is here.

i just started treatment with telaprevir, and have used flax seed oil for the fat on one dose and will use it again. the problem with flax seed oil is it goes rancid really fast. so if you are going to use it make sure you buy from a very reliable source that refrigerates the oil and check the date. yesterday i bought an 8 ounce bottle of barlean's flax oil that was pressed on 9/15/10 with an expiration of 3/15/11. so make sure it is supper fresh. rancid oil will cause liver damage.

It makes them tons worse. I take a tsp. of flax seed each day and blend them in a smoothie and that doesn't seem to bother me. What brand of plant based omega 3 do you use? After my bad experiences with krill oil, I'm kind of scared to take anything but whole flax seeds.

It was very cheap and I made salmon cakes which were very good and quick to make. It also said that flax seed and flax seed oil are high in Omega 3 fatty acids without the worry of mercury. Flax seed flour is good to add to foods in place of some of the flour. It has to be ground or crushed to be used by our bodies. Walnuts are another good source too. I found a good recipe for salmon cakes in Joy of Cooking. Here is the recipe I used.

can I drink boost with flax seed oil in it for the fat content required for incivek doses

I personally would not focus so much on the weight loss but rather on pre-dosing with alaina, riba or interferon, or maybe all of them. This type of thinking will benefit you a lot more then losing weight.

It sounds like flax seed (I figured an ointment/liquid form for the eyes, one must read carefully) may be a good ongoing treatment as a simple food additive, if the dog will eat it. Is flax seed a seed? Where does one purchase it - I can check Amazon to see what they offer, but it may be a grocery store item for human consumption. I try to ruse Opt morning and night, and wonder if using it once a day and say "artivicial tears" (for humans) once a day.

sorry to ask...it may sound dumb, but does it matter if it's hyper or hypo to avoid iodine?

I'm 44 and I'm a type 2 diabetic. I've been struggling with losing weight. I've done everything I can even seen a dietion. I work out 3-4 a week for over hour each day. I've changed my whole eating habits but I've only lost 2 lbs. is there anything thing you can recommend to help burn fat and up my metatabalism I'm extremely frustrated and disappointed. I don't know what else to do. Please help!!!

Since essential fatty acids are necessary, you can take flax seed oil in place of Evening Primrose Oil or EPO after ovulation. This may be taken throughout pregnancy as well. There are many remedies out there to help with fertility, but few are as good as Evening Primrose Oil or EPO. Evening Primrose Oil or EPO is excellent for women because of the help it gives in alleviating premenstrual syndrome symptoms, and even menopausal women can benefit from taking it.
