SpectrumEssentials Organic Premium Ground Flaxseed 14 ozUSDA Organic

This is a repeat buy for me. I find this brand by Spectrum essential is a very good one. It is organic which is what I am looking for. I take this mainly for constipation but also for the omega 3's in plant form.When using this flax seed I find I stay regular. If you are having trouble with constipation this is a very good and natural way to remedy it. I add it to any food I am eating cooked or raw. I add it to salads and into smoothies as well. Two tablespoons a day is the amount that I use.You can also add this to pastry recipes before baking like cakes, cookies, muffins, breads, you name it. It will also replace eggs in a recipe. You can google 'flaxseed, egg replacement' to find the correct ratio for your recipe or use mine. For each egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed (measure after grinding) with 3 tablespoons of water. Stir well, and place in the fridge to set for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the result should be a sticky egg-like substitute and it's ready to go!If you are in the market for a quality flaxseed that is organic you cannot beat this one form Spectrum Essentials. I have used to for a long time with great results health wise and in baking recipes.

Short ReviewPros-High Quality = Peace of Mind-Tastes very good and adds a little something to my shakes-Good quantity as well should last me through the month- Blends easily into my shake- Gets the job done-The price was competitive with other brands so no gripes thereCons- Such a great product I have a hard time thinking of a con to be completely honest, I simply have not had any complaints.This ground flax is definitely deserving of the 5 star rating without a doubt. I will grab another when I run through this one and I would definitely recommend this product. Flax Seeds provide an array of health benefits including aid in digestion and is fiber rich, if you are looking into Flax seeds and browsing around just get this product.

I buy another bag every time the one I have get empty.

I don't have egg allergies nor am I watching my cholesterol intake (for now anyway)or am into food fads of any sort - unless I have an actual organic disease I don't cut things out from my diet simply because it is in with the foodies & their sponsors. This month it is flour, next month medium chain fatty acids, I often wonder if folks understand the etiology of why some people simply can't eat certain foods? but I digress - The problem really is that I can't stand eggs in my food. I find them so off putting. I mean I love eggs by themselves in savory dishes but not in any desert, egg(nog) or pancake etc (yet to find away around using eggs for crème brûlée).I often use applesauce as a substitute and still do but for some reason it doesn't emulsify as well. With this not only am I pleased with the nutty earthy taste but you practically can't tell the difference between this and recipes that use eggs. I made two identical chocolate orange cakes one using eggs, & the other using flax and no one could tell the difference in fact the second cake had more of an audience which I presumed was due to the mocha icing but no it was definitely the nuttiness from the flax.. it conspired to make an enchanting desert!I add one tablespoon of flax for an egg plus three table spoons of water and beat them together to get that viscid consistency, add the other wet ingredients to the dry ingredients et voila.Really glad of it.. I am used to flax seed oil on fava beans and when I told my aunt about this she was quizzical as to how it can come in ground form but it does hurraahh.I did find it much cheaper elsewhere practically half the price so I might try the other brand see what the extra dollars are all about. I am hoping they're all the same I'd rather save the extra money. But there you've it, even folks on a regular diet can enjoy this as well.

I add this to smoothies and baked goods. It was recommended by a nurse for my son's constipation. It works and also adds vitamins, minerals and omega-3s to your diet. Adds a nutty taste and texture to cookies, muffins and even apple crisp. I prefer to use it in smoothies in order to retain all the nutrients. The only con is that I had to transfer the contents to another container as the resealable bag was defective. I just happened to get the one bag that did this, I'm sure. I will re-order this product as I like it very much and is an easy way to add fiber to the diet..

Natural and amazing great size for the money, great value. I use them every day in my Greek yogurt, it has a great texture. The health benefits are amazing, these are organic and natural great size for the price, has a great texture you can’t even taste them.They function great as health benefits, and they do not have a smell at all, add them to your daily food intake, very good for gut health, odorless, no smell

Buying for the second time. Consistently good product and still a good price. I'll continue buying.

We have used organic ground flax seed for over a year now and can tell a difference in our overall health. I use it in cakes, cookies, meatloaf, our hot oatmeal and cream of wheat. Anywhere, really, where I can tuck a few tablespoon fulls without affecting the flavor or textures of my dishes. This is an organic way to keep our digestive systems working smoothly without using any harsh stimulants I've always read that Americans don't get half enough fiber in their diets and a lot of our ailments could be wiped out if more fiber were added to our to our every day eating. It's rich in Omega 3 fatty acids and has 3 grams of fiber per serving.If you think that the whole flax seed is better for you then think again. It passes through the human system whole without digesting. That's why the ground flax seed is the better way to go. And since I'm eating flax seed, I decided that organic is the only way to go. Spectrum Essential Organic is always fresh and good quality.
