flax seed benefits hot flashes

Hi , Can any one tell me please , I have a breast cancer removal and overies removal two years ago, after thet i am in medication tamoxfen amd vit. i had a hot flashes but its reduced after that now i am in a ( hard ) diet with 5 days aweek exercise but the hot flases getting to much in order that i cannot sleep at nite> Dose the diet and exercise with tamoxfen exhilarate hot flashes ?

Yes, I've read that it helps too but don't know anyone who has a real life story to tell me. Hm. You know what is odd? I got sick, have lost some weight. It's also turned chillier here and I am not having hot flashes at night at all. I'm sleeping pretty well. Makes me wonder if they really were hot flashes. And my moods seem better. I haven't had a period in 5 months. Maybe I'm headed toward being more even with the hormones. Lordy, I hope so.

In January, I could not take it any more. I bought soy milk, flax seed and chia seeds. I eat the chia and flax seeds with my nuts/oatmeal. I drink soy milk 2 or 3 days a week. (too much soy is not good for you I'm hearing), no more than a glass or mix with regular milk. My night sweats (they were getting pretty bad) and hot flashes have greatly diminished. My sleep has improved. I did not have hot flashes before the IVF treatments.

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.

Can you believe it......flax seed oil has helped me trememdously with hot flashes, menstral symptoms and my nerves. I take no medication.

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.

htm strange it mentions the omega3-fatty acid. I have a friend epileptic, his father swears that flax seed oil ( linseed ) got him cured from epilepsy. I don't believe. So the relationship bipolarepilepsy can be sound and that bipolarity is partly neurological and partly psychological. This clarifies why drugs like anticonvulsents have a mood stabilization effect.

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.

Actually, I don't use flax seed oil. I use flax seed meal, mixing it into granola, oatmeal, smoothies, etc. Its great for making corn bread. But I'm not on triple therapy either. And I love coconut anything!

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...

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.

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.

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.

, does cause a lot of side effects including hot flashes,but the benefits must always be weighed against the possible risks.I am sure if your wife discusses her problem with her Oncologist something could be done to alleviate her discomfort without stopping the medication.Also a different drug,such as Femara could be more tolerable?I really don't know,but in my case I found that Femara was less problematic.

t have that bad symptoms, just mainly hot flashes irritable rls migrain, and weakness. I also have the flu so I guess I quit at the right time, but I'm just curious how long this will last if it gets better or worste?

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 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.

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
