I take 2 heaping tablespoons of the organic, ground, flaxseed and put it into a small cup of juice, like 3 or 4 ounces. It really is just preference how much juice. I like to down it quick and be done cuz its thick and I want it over with. Stir and drink.

Never take flaxseed or fiber with ANY OTHER SUPPLEMENTS OR MEDICATION. Fiber can interfere with absorbtion. It can be taken with food or not but never with supplements or medication.

It's best to drink a full glass of water afterwards.

P.s. flaxseed is sooooo healthy for you in sooooo many ways. My 22 year old daughter finally listened to me and is taking it and her periods and PMS is getting sooo much better. The omega in flaxseed is very good for hormones. But you have to take it consistantly and it doesnt help over night. But long term use will benefit your hormones, complexion, and so many other things.
