Common Questions and Answers about Flaxseed meal substitute for butter

flax-seed

Avatar f tn Try flaxseed meal. There is a brand called Bob's Red Mill that is already ground. If you live in an area that has a Trader Joe's store, that's a great place to get it. They sell the product cheaper than anyone else I know of. Other places will have it, too. I have seen it at grocery store chains in my own area. You can also find it at natural food stores or co-ops. I would try Trader Joes first, though. The beauty of flaxseed meal is that it is an actual food fiber.
Avatar m tn I think taking the fiber supplement is correct, because this sounds like the colon spasming. There is a gentler fiber that I have found to be less irritating to the gut. This is flaxseed meal. I read of a woman who said that she used it much like one uses Metamucil and drinks it down first thing in the morning and last thing at night and has done so for years. Taking psyllium fiber (the main ingredient in Metamucil) wasn't helpful for her bowel troubles, but the flaxseed meal was.
390388 tn?1279636213 Can you substitute a meal drink or food bar type of thing for a meal? I'm having to eat 3 times a day now in which for me is very hard. If so which ones? Is there anything like that on the market for diabetes? Just curious.
Avatar f tn I hope it's normal bcuz Im in the same boat, but only 24weeks. I feel like I eat a meal & soon as I take my last bite Im looking for my next meal. I hve a crazy pattern of sleep bcuz I need 2 wake up & feed my belly. I thnk ur fine!
Avatar f tn I'd first consider just adding another healthy meal. Most shakes doctors know about aren't particularly healthy. You can make your own, but to play it safe I'd try using rice protein as the base -- most shakes are either dairy or soy and they are both common allergens and many people don't tolerate them well.
Avatar f tn I did not have much of an appetite but like HRSEWSPR said peanut butter worked for me, I would eat 3 tablespoons with an apple a cheese omelet and a glass of milk.

Avatar f tn Carry nuts and dried fruit in your pocket for a snack or peanut-butter-and-cracker, cheese sticks or power bars, single-serving energy gel packs to eat before running, this will give you quick energy and carbohydrates. Eat snacks and drink energy drinks immediately after running to replace electrolytes. Eat a High Calorie Dinner complex carbohydrates such as brown rice, whole-grain pasta and beans, high-calorie fish, such as salmon and tuna. Add extras to foods you already eat.
Avatar n tn Bananas and peanut butter sandwiches never let me down when it came to nausea lol! Oatmeal too!
Avatar f tn I've had trouble pooping so my stepmother recommended flaxseed. I sprinkled some on my peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Later I go online to find out that you're not supposed to eat them during pregnancy. Will this result in miscarriage? I am 18 wks 4 days.
Avatar n tn Has anyone used flaxseed oil for the 20g's of fat. I thought if I mixed it with a fruit smoothy it would be tolerable and I also found a flavored flaxseed oil but that was pretty expensive. I want to try to use the "good" fat for protease inhibitor. This anti-depressant already has me eating like crazy. I start this Friday Yikes!!
Avatar n tn The Budwig diet is mainly composed of flaxseed oil and cottage cheese with restrictions on eating animal meats, butter and sugars. Some holistic health enthusiasts believe that cancer patients are deficient in essential lipids that cottage cheese mixed with flaxseed can replace. The scientific journal “Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift” published a study in 2012 that determined that cancer diets, such as the Budwig, diet do not cure cancer and can have adverse health effects.
Avatar f tn Your weight is normal for your height. Heart Healthy diet which is a moderate fat diet and a moderate fat diet means = using polyunsaturated (omega 3, corn oil, nuts, etc) fats and monounsaturated (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) fats, no saturated fats (high fat snack foods, butter, fat spreads) and no trans fats.
Avatar n tn As I mentioned in response to your other question. . . . . flaxseed is recommended for eye problems and specifically for dry eye. I buy the liquid gels and also grind whole flaxseed and mix it into a healthy smoothie drink. (Obviously, the flaxseed is to be taken orally--never directly to the eye!
Avatar f tn With flaxseed meal, you can even add just a small portion of the amount you will be using for the whole day with each meal, so that you're also not eating it all at once, which might be helpful when you have such a sensitive system. Don't forget that you must drink plenty of water with any kind of fiber and with gastro problems, for that matter.
Avatar n tn A fiber that I found better than psyllium, which is actually simply too irritating for the stomach and the bowels of just about everyone I know, is simply flaxseed meal. A healthy amount of fiber is supposed to help balance out the colon, regardless of which extreme symptom a person experiences. When you see your gasto, you may be prescribed an anti-spasmodic medication. My doctor has me using the generic form of Bentyl. I hate it, because it sedates me too much.
Avatar f tn From there you need to look at different food groups to take care of your other issues. For Celiac disease substitute all the wheat products for corn or rice products. For Kidney issues, the high potassium fruit and vegetables need to be avoided and substitute with low potassium fruit, such as apples, pears. Tomatoes are high potassium, which needs to be avoided and that will help you with your GERD because tomato products irritate GERD.
Avatar f tn For breakfast have two servings of fruit, one serving of protein, and three servings of whole grains. Like a small apple, 6 ounces of orange juice, a whole grain bagel, and 2 tablespoons peanut butter. For the mid-morning snack choose a dairy or dairy substitute serving, two whole grains and a piece of fruit. One string cheese, eight whole grain crackers and a banana is good.
Avatar n tn After cooking, I stir in 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed meal, one teaspoon of maple syrup and one teaspoon of peanut butter. Delicious! JoAnne My allergies are off the chart so healthy meals are hard. No fruit other than citrus, blueberries and blackberries, no tree nuts, no shellfish, no soy . . . It is difficult. Breakfast usually is organic yogurt, I put steel cut oats on the night before so they are somewhat chewy. At times I put blueberries or blackberries in too.
Avatar m tn I'm suffering from lower abdominal swelling, a foul smell eliminating from the anus sweating there also. There is something in the air that eliminates off me that causes other people to come down with diarreah, vomiting. I cut out the pop and the junk food I eat three meals a day and this has reduced the odor problem but the sweating and the thing that causes people to get sick is still there.
