I started with ground flax seed to help with my high blood glucose, reduce cholesterol, get more and a different type of Omega-3 and reduce constipation. I buy whole flax seeds and grind them myself in a coffee bean grinder. Ground flax seed has oil that will go rancid unless refrigerated. And whole seed are much less expensive. So far ( 2 years) I have not seen any decrease in blood sugar, and I'm still somewhat constipated, however my cholesterol is lower, but not my triglycerides. So I am hoping that the Omega-3 is doing my brain and circulatory system is seeing the benefit that I am not.Read More Read Less
