Flax seeds

[Guest guest]

Hi. This is Mary Ellen, again. I have a question about flax seeds. I used to buy

raw organic flax seeds and grind them up in this cool little coffee grinder and

then add them to my juice, but then, a friend of mine said she went to this

lecture or seminar or something by this woman/author who wrote some book about

" fat flushing " (something like that) and this woman said that you should always

toast your flax seeds first because there is something " harmful " in them, but

toasting them makes them ok to eat. Now, I was just wondering if anyone out

there has ever heard of this? Because I am trying to be 100% raw, and as a

result, I have avoided the flax seeds lately because the ones I have here, are

now " toasted " . Also, I was wondering if flax seeds need to be kept refrigerated

because in my hfs, they are kept on the shelf, but then I have seen them in the

frig at the bulk food store, so I was just wondering...

 

Peace, ~*~Mary Ellen~*~
