I bought this to try because being a woman "of a certain age" I've been dealing with hot flashes for nearly 30 years as I refuse to take any hormone replacement -- I figured since women for centuries dealt with hot flashes....so could I. Keep one thing in mind, ladies, not all doctors will tell you this but when you start going through the change some of you will have hot flashes for a few months, some for a few years, and some very "special" ones (like myself) have the privilege and joy of living with them for the rest of our lives! Thank goodness for nature!!! Flaxseed does help, although it doesn't eliminate them by any means. I've been buying whole flaxseed and pulverizing it in my bullet to add to my protein shakes as whole flax seeds do not digest, but only run right through your system. No matter how much I tried to chop them up, though, there were still "husks" which I'd have to rinse out of my mouth.When I saw this flaxseed powder I thought I'd give it a try. I use a tablespoon in each protein drink, making two a day to ensure I get enough protein, and flaxseed is high in Omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, antioxidants, AND gives you additional protein. I like that it's an American company owned by women, even if they do get most of their flaxseed from north of our border! I was so pleased when I opened the package and saw that, in fact, it really was powder...no husks because it's so finely milled! It mixes wonderfully in my protein shake and doesn't add any taste to speak of. I would recommend this to anyone thinking of using flaxseed. Nature IS our best medicine!

Recommended by my Urogynecology to use Flax seed powder for fiber and i chose this brand as not to be too fussy and so far it's good I use it in my smoothies in the morning along with my Matcha powder. It's only been less than a month but I will let you know how better it is!! I buy it again!

Easy to use
