Foodland also sell flax seeds. I have seen them in the Ram Intra branch.

Anybody knows the price ? Lazy to go there actually.

I posted the other topic specifically for Bangkok. If you're in Chiang Mai, go to Rimping (the one near Airport definitely sells them). 49 baht a bag.

Are you going to do the Velocity diet (V diet) too?

Omega 3 rich flax seeds can do a lot of good to your body.

Macro Phuket has Flax seeds near the bakery / seed & nut isle.

Pretty much everywhere, the OP should try going into a shop to look! Makro, Rimping, Foodland, Tops, Central plus any number of health food/supplement shops.

a little flax is nice source of fiber but the source of omega 3 idea has been pretty well debunked.

The conversion ratio is so low flax mostly just increases omega 6 levels.

Is omega 6 bad?

If you eat the flaxseeds uncrushed they will mostly just pass through so no point really. You need to smash them. Best to do it fresh daily. I use a mortar and pestle. You could grind a large amount and store (in fridge) but not as good as fresh.

Someone just said that flax seeds are useless...

Thanks. I'll look into that. Frankly, I forgot why I started eat flaxseed in the first place! Does it have other benefits?

[thailandbeachisland]

Any other seeds that can be useful to eat daily ?

rolled oats (as in porridge) (german) from tops not expensive. good for the stomach. i eat them as is uncooked. not daily but in inter-spaced binges as with most else. sprinkled on a tin of tuna in brine (uncooked) also is a treat. try it before you discount it offhand.

also roasted and straight pumpkin seeds from 7-11, they got sunflower seeds too.

Omega 3 and fibre value.
