Notes
Pro tips: Be sure to grind up the flaxseed as your body can’t break down the exterior shell, so in order to reap those wonderful flax benefits, grind em up, or purchase already ground flaxseed. Next little pro tip is once the seeds are ground up, store them in an air-tight, dark place in the fridge or freezer. I personally would suggest buying whole flaxseeds and grinding them up fresh as you go. Whole flaxseeds are a lot more easy going when it comes to storage. You could store those bad boys at room temperature for a year!
