I'm reminded of an anecdote that's not quite on topic but may be of interest to some here. A friend had a colonoscopy recently, followed all the rules, but the doctor said he'd have to do it over because her system wasn't clean enough. Turns out it was lingering flax seed. Doctor said the next time to stop the flax seed two weeks before the procedure.

Re the life span of ground flax seed, the vendors promise months of freshness after opening. Of course, vendors promise all sorts of things.

I use flax seed primarily for texture in my foods. And also for fiber and Omega-3. I take so many supplements already that it's a nice break to take cod liver oil and flax seed in some other form. I can only tolerate so many big pills.
