I've heard that we cannot absorb nutrients from flax seeds as long as they are intact. They need to be broken down for us, otherwise we just poop them out. I use ground flax seed for this reason.

Yeah, Perhaps the blender can chop them up a little, but chewing with the molars is usually how I consume them. In a smoothie, though, we just drink them down don't we? Good point @donguillermo! Everybody, use ground flax seeds in your smoothies for maximum nutrition. Thanks!

Oooh, i know of something that I should post about, as far as the food goes. It is tsampa and I actually have some photos on how I tried preparing it.
