Anyone have any other experience with using either one of these? I would take them but I'm afraid of the bigger boobs!! I don't need to add on an extra cup!:lachen::lachen:

I lost my temple hair d/t pp shedding, since taking flax for 4 mos. my hair texture is coming in different as in in looser curl pattern, darker, thicker, and shiny.(All desirable of course) DH noticed this too.

As far as the boobs go, although I am losing weight, my boobs are still enormous. Never knew that about flax

OMG, I never knew that:blush:. I have been taking the pills for about a month, and let's just say- DH is VERY happy.

It happened to me too. I went from a C to a DD. I couldn't figure out what happened. I thought it was the new style of bra until a got one in a different brand. My DH is also very happy.
 
I take the oil. I noticed a huge difference in my skin and my hair doesn't feel as dry as it was. I tried taking it straight but that was not a good idea. :nono: It has a nutty oil taste. I usually have problems taking liquid anything but I thought about how I mixed my patients medication in ice cream and that did the trick for me. I just mix it with a little vanilla ice cream every day. BTW, I noticed the difference in a week.
 
To Ms. Eveline 1,
I recommend doing as less as posible to your hair, using hardly ever any heat etc. Good conditioners and keeping it oiled. The less you do to it, the more it will grow

Good Luck.

Congrats on the weight loss, and I didn't know about the boobs thing until I read it on another thread.

That's exactly what's happening to me - mid and upper back pain. I noticed they were getting bigger but I thought it was another growth spurt, I didn't realize it could be the flaxseed. This is going to be a problem.

Oh gosh, so sorry to hear this!! Maybe if you stopped taking them, maybe they'll go back to normal? Or is that even possible? I sure do hope you can find some way of diminishing this before it gets even worse!! Praying for you!! :bighug:
 
I had no idea about the boobs. Maybe that is why my boobies are tender. :lol: They do feel fuller though. I think I may have to buy the entire stock from the Vitamine Shoppe!

@$#%^! I forgot to buy some flaxseed this weekend:wallbash::wallbash::wallbash:. I'm curious to see if I can add a little growth to my rack (I'm 38B:sad:). I would also like to see the benefits of flaxseed on my hair.
 
ok, I've been convinced. I ordered the barlean's flavored flaxseed (since I hate anything nutty tasting, hopefully the flavor will make it tolerable).

Thanks! I'm hoping that they will come to a stop as the oil becomes standard in my body? I figure they have to stop right?

Are you sure? I really thought that it was Fenugreek seed that increased your bust size and helps nursing mothers breasts produce more milk for their new born babies. I took flaxseed oils years ago and to be honest, my breast size actually reduced in size.

ETA: Oooh I remember, when I was taking flaxseed oil years ago, I was excerising quite a lot so maybe that's why my breasts became smaller.

Does anyone have anything to say about the grounded flax seed. I just ordered some and is adding to protein shakes. 2tbls. I have some pills, I find when I take those they helped me to be regular. Well I guess I will finish up my bag and see how that go. My skin can take a boost
 
I take it by oil form. I must say it not a great taste at all.:nono: However I mix mine with soda or water to kill the taste and thickness. I been taking it for a week, and the first thing I notice after only 2 days my skin was glowing and very smooth:blush:. I haven't notice anything w/my hair yet but I know its working, but to add I only been taking it for a week. :ohwell: This is beauty in a bottle. :lick:
 
I put two table spoons of ground flaxseeds in my yogurt or green smoothie every day. I'm not sure if it's necessary to take pills or oil behind that. Plus I take Omega 3 6 9 daily. I figure that's enough.
