Non-Gmo, great quality, excellent value, high in iron and for pain
I love this and use these seeds (after soaking in water overnight to maximize effectiveness) for pain management (nature's diazepam without side effects) and anemia treatment (super high in easily-absorbed iron). One should roast or soak the untreated seeds for max benefit. They swell up nicely and are, to me, pretty tasty as they are, reminiscent of wheat berries but not quite as chewy. Roasted seeds may be ground into flour. Soaked ones can be eaten straight or added to other foods. I add them to pancakes, cookies, soups and salads. Vegetarians and vegans should take extra note. Anemics - These are a powerhouse for easily absorbed iron. I soak 3/4 cup in chlorine free water overnight and add to food throughout the day - from soups to salads, even straight brcause I like the texture.
