Trenger et kjapt svar på denne (Lise, Nille :o ) Please

Har fått tak i linfrø i dag ... har de samme virkning som psylliumfrø?

Er det ok å spise?
Hvor lenge må de eventuelt ligge i vann først?
Virker de på samme måten som psylliumfrø?

Atkins anbefaler ikke hele linfrø. De kommer like hele ut igjen. Det aller beste er å knuse dem og ha dem i en shake eller lign. De hjelper godt mot forstoppelse
Jeg har ikke problem når jeg spiser 1-2 fiberrik hver morgen. (wheat bran på engelsk)

Her er hva Atkins sier om saken:

Sitat:

Some constipation is common during the first week of the Induction phase. This is due to the change in diet, especially the reduction of fruit and vegetable fiber. Be sure that you are taking in at least three cups of salad vegetables and not using your carb allotment on other foods. After the first few days, your body should adjust and constipation shouldn't be a problem. And when you begin to add more carbohydrates, your first choices should be more vegetables, followed by seeds and nuts and berries.

If constipation continues, there are several remedies. First, make sure you are drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of water each day. Inadequate hydration is the main reason for constipation. Most people, especially women, don't drink enough water and are slightly dehydrated much of the time. Second, consume some supplementary fiber in the form of wheat bran sprinkled on a salad, psyllium husks mixed with water or ground flaxseed blended into a protein drink. The amount needed to stay regular varies from person to person. Start with a tablespoonful. It may take a few days to find the amount that works for you. Do be careful not to use too much fiber; in excess, it can actually act as a binder. Finally, increasing physical activity often helps.

If adding more fiber in the form of vegetables to your diet isn’t doing the trick for you, try a dose of crushed flax seeds to relieve your constipation. This excellent natural remedy is available at any health-food store. Stir 2 teaspoons into a glass of water and drink it down in the evening—you’ll probably get results the next morning. Oat or wheat bran is another natural approach. An alternative is a bulk-forming sugar-free fiber supplement made from psyllium (Fiberall®, Metamucil®). These products are available as powders, capsules and wafers; use as directed on the package. Unless your doctor recommends them, don’t use chemical or herbal laxatives or stool softeners. These products can cause uncomfortable cramping and diarrhea, and their effects may remain with you for several days.
