[RC] Ground Flax - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Sheila Larsen Sheila_Larsen@xxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== I would recommend searching the archives, but this is what I understand about flax. First for allergies for a horse (don't know about a pony) you should be feeding one pound to get the desired results for allergies. Three cups of unground flax seed is equal to one pound. Next is that it is the volatile fatty acids that have the allergy benefits. Because they are so volatile it is best to grind and feed. I don't know if keeping it for a week even in a closed container would provide the same benefits but it is my recollection that it will not. Again search the archives and look for Susan Garlinghouse's discussion on it. You can also search the internet for information. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
