Ground flax kept open at room temperature turns fishy and bitter, and that rancid batch is a common reason someone decides flax disagrees with them. / Raw flax contains cyanogenic glycosides. Culinary amounts of a spoon or two are not the concern, very large raw intakes are, and cooking or baking reduces them. / The mucilage bulks up with water.
