Carmentina and flybaby are correct. The only way to get to the highly nutritious good stuff in the flax seed is to get it open before you swallow it. Either by chewing really really well, or grinding the seeds before you add them to your recipe.
I like raw cookbook author Gabriella Chavez’s technique. Take your recipe for crackers (whatever recipe you like) and add your flax seeds in your food processor, then add water, just to cover them. leave for 4 to 8 hours. This will ‘wake them up’ and make them alive. Then blend well. Then add the rest of your ingredients. Then pour it onto your teflex & dehydrate!
