They should consider what happens to body-builders who take steroids: their bodies compensate by producing the antagonist hormone, which is why mega-doses of testosterone cause development of breast tissue (the body produces estrogen, to compensate). So, you'll always have a balance, based upon your physiology.<BR/><BR/>As to the flax, I think you could stand to add a bit more, and you might even enjoy adding the seeds whole. Also, if you buy flax, don't buy it pre-ground, because that's mostly stale - the oils go rancid in a few days, apparently, so pre-ground is almost always stale, unless it's packed in an 'alternate atmosphere', and then you have to use it right after opening it.<BR/><BR/>Check out <A HREF="http://www.flickr.com/photos/wishiwerebaking/508538717/" REL="nofollow">this picture</A> to see what I put into my loaves, in a usual batch. It's a bit hard to get a good rise out of loaves when you put this much 'stuff' into them, so you might start off with only 1 cup of the oat bran, but the 2 cups of flax seeds give a wonderful nutty flavor.<BR/><BR/>If you do whole seeds, though, just don't use the dark ones - they make the bread look awful & mottled, as they show through.<BR/><BR/>Do you have any shots of the sliced loaf?David T.
