    Hi!

    I read in the other post that you have a blender--they will grind up just fine in there! Don't bother trying the food processor though, it just makes them spin around! If you grind them, only do enough for a day or two, since they lose nutrients quickly.

    Question Soaking seeds

    I've also read in various threads that soaking them too is ideal--unless I read it wrong but I've always ate them the way they are on salads too.

    are you new here leespike? if so, welcome to your new home!

    day 2 juice fast,
