Guest guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Years ago I found an academic reference which said flax seed was high in phytase. I tried to find the reference again a couple months ago to no avail. So, I've been using a few T ground flax seed in my oat soaks based on the hope that my memory is right. Sigh.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 How is your thyroid function? Rhetorical question. I've heard anecdotal evidence that flax is another thyroid suppressor. I searched for research on that and was unable to find it. But, it isn't worth it to me, if it is true, so I gave up the flax.
