I have it everyday for breakfast. I had a tbl of ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and sugar to it. I think it's Elhern brand.

Not at all, but then again I do add the ground flax seed which helps keep things moving. Though I am wondering right now if my issues weren't IBS at all, and just my gallbladder. I'm doing a little experimenting, suppose I'll find out soon enough.

What brand flax do you use? And how much?
What's going on with your gallbladder? Are you okay?
Oh, I eat cream of brown rice cereal too...Lundberg brand or Bob's red Mill. I also add flax to it and I don't think it worsens the C. But, everyone is different.

I use spectrum mill ground flax seed. I also have added it to my muffins & if I make hash browns. I had my gallbladder out 2 weeks ago today. OMG I feel so much better. It was only functioning at 10% and in talking to the dr. yesterday, very well could have been the cause of most of my symptoms. I'm testing a little dairy to see how I react. I'm not planning on changing most of my diet, personally think I eat so much better now than I used to anyhow, but if I can have cheese again....

How much do you add in a given day?
Thanks so much for the brand name. They have stopped carrying the brand I used to use.
How wonderful if the GB was the main culprit! Keep us udated on your progress!
