Flax Oil
Thanks to the advice of you gals, I was able to tweak my diet a little. I am taking Fyre's advice and adding the flax oil to my protein shakes. I started this today, and all I have to say is...YUCK!  I added 1 Tbsp. to 8oz. of liquid (1/2 skim, 1/2 water) along with one scoop of Optimum 100% whey Chocolate Protein. It tasted nasty! I had to hold my nose so I would not taste it!!! Any suggestions? | | Reply » Flax Oil |
lol...do u really find it that bad? I have to admit it doesn't taste great. You're using chocolate whey right? Try adding a tablespoon of natural peanut butter to your shake as well. That should help mask the taste a bit. You can also add it or make a salad dressing out of it too. Or you could go extreme and just shoot it into your mouth and chug back some grapefruit juice afterwards...lol And if you absolutely can't take the taste, switch over to Udo's Ultimate Oil Blend, it has more of a nutty flavor to it. Another idea is to mix it in with your tuna salad at lunch. I hope we can find something that works for u sweetie.

I can't stand it AT ALL. I'm supposed to take 1/2 tsp w/ every shake, so I put it in 1 tsp measuring spoon, and put a couple drops of salad dressing and shoot it! Can't even taste it!

Well since I started making my shakes with water cuz it's cutting time, the flax is tasting really gross in my shakes...lol
so, now I just put one tablespoon in a shot glass and shoot it back and chase it with a little grapefruit juice. I was surprised I couldn't taste it at all. I take 3 tablespoons a day now so I need to get it down somehow. This seems to work for me.
I do however think I'm going to switch back to the Udo's Ultimate Oil blend, it's just a little expensive for how fast I go through it but it does taste way better.

What kind do you use? I use the Barleans High Lignan flax and a glass of water. Fill my mouth with water and 1 tablespoon down the hatch. It tasted really bad the first day or two and now it doesnt bother me at all. The after taste was what got my the first couple of days.

The kind I use is some crap from GNC. Instead of a Tablespoon, I mix in a Teaspoon of the oil in with 4oz. water, 4oz. soy milk, and 1 scoop of Optimum 100% whey Chocolate. I can barely even taste it that way...it tastes good!
