First up - I love this stuff! I made a concoction of soaked flaxseed, blended with some filtered water and honey - then put it on a sheet in my dehydrator (those non-stick sheets) and dried it over night - it is YUMMY! THe only concern I have is that I read an article that eating too much flaxseed can be dangerous because of naturally occuring cyanide. Has anyone heard this? How much flaxseed can/do you eat in a day? If I made a bunch of this stuff, I could snack on it all day long. What are the caloric concerns in eating too much flaxseed? Should I be worried that I am eating too much and counteracting my eating for weight loss?

I have never heard anything Negative about Flaxseed. I would eat My fill. You will soon be off them and on to something else. The World of RAW is full of so many New Adventures, more things to try. You are, eating other Fruits and Vegetables?

My aim is 4 dessertspoon a day. I do not always make it. Sometimes I just crush it and drink it in a glass of water.
