actually i don't think that is a problem at all.... ground flax holds up extremely well in cold storage...i keep it in a plastic sealed container in the fridge personally i like to get nutritional supplementation in natural food form as opposed to pills...beyond the cholesterol lowering characteristics, a person can EASILY obtain the necessary fiber content so important in fighting colon cancer... i forgot to point out that i also add lewis brewers yeast to my ground flax seed concoction....it's an amazing source of the entire B vitamin complex, amino acids (protein) and as we discussed earlier chromium (which may stabilize blood glucose levels) more on flaxseed ameriflax.com and on lewis labs (no i don't work there, i just think it's one of the better tasting brands) lewis-labs.com "It is extraordinarily rich in nucleic acid, which is a basic element in cell development and is believed to retard the aging process. It is the best nutritional source of chromium, which occurs in brewer?s yeast in an organic compound known as GTF (glucose tolerance factor). This vital factor is essential for the production of functionally effective insulin, without which the body cannot handle glucose?its major fuel. Hypoglycemia results when the blood sugar level rapidly shoots upward, followed by a rapid release of insulin, which in turn overshoots the mark and drives the blood sugar too low. The role of GTF is to moderate insulin activity. First, by potentiating and circulating insulin and then by reducing the amount required to be released. This moderating effect of GTF is important, not only for diabetics and hypoglycemics, but also many of those who have increased hunger or craving for sweets. Brewer?s yeast has at least ten times more GTF activity than any other natural food.."
