How much flax seed meal is good for me? I have been using 2 tablespoons full per day on salads, soups, drinks, etc. but I think I remember reading of a study where the users used 3 rounded tablespoons full compared to those who didn't. Would three rounded tablespoons be better? I am 59, 185 lbs. 6'3" and have a very active life so I don't gain weight although I eat over 2500 calories a day.

It is my understanding that a tablespoon on cereal in the morning is enough.

Everything I have read is 1 to 3 Tablespoons a day.

I usually use two, and I think it's fine. I don't think one more (or less) tablespoon will add (or take off) any significant nutritional value.
