I use flax seeds in my post workout shakes, so that I get the benefit of the fiber as well.

You don't want to slow absorption pwo though and fat does that job well.

Okay - this is gross, but I wanted to bring it up before - now is the chance. Have you noticed that you 'pass' the seeds - apparently undigested?

Hypothetically speaking, if one passes the seeds whole, are they getting the benefit of either the omega-3 or the fiber?

BTW - I take 1 gram 3 times a day - 2nd, 4th & 6th mealtimes.

I wouldn't take it after a workout, but that is assuming that its critical that you get, only protein and CARBS, after a workout. I would bet though that if a study was done , say one group taking flak seed oil after and another say taking it in the AM, several hours a part from working out , if there would be any real difference.
Remember after lifting the critical time is 36 hours( i believe) so as long as you restore glycogen and get sufficient protein, and good fat you will be covered there.

Get about 8-10 g at breakfast mixed with goji berries.
