Fine for hot water bottles.
I do not think that this product should be overheated I prefer to use it with preservative free natural yogurt as a thickener
Research suggests that you can reduce nutrients by overheating29/11/2019, By BeePersonally I find the taste to be like that of card board, though it is great for holding things together as an egg alternative.25/10/2019, By AdeneGreat that I can get my Flaxseed boost in this powder form and the Health Connection Brand is good value for money.21/10/2019, By TimNo complaints.I use it in all my breakfasts and really enjoyed the pancake recipe on the back of the package01/07/2019, By BeemeMy Skoonma het baie gesukkel met opelyf en vandat sy die Flaxseed poeier elke oggend oor haar pap gooi het sy geen probleem nie, sy sukkel as jare om 'n produk te kry wat gesond is en werk.

I have a very sensitive tummy, and that makes it hard to get all the good stuff when you can't actually eat any of it. This is a great way to keep my gut healthy, and it tastes lovely.17/08/2018, By JennaLoving this - just started using it, so still have to experience the benefits but know that it is pure goodness = I add it to my bulletproof coffee - am going to try it with betonite clay as another reviewer does for a detox drink -05/07/2018, By AislinnI've only been using it for two weeks and not every day.

Very happy with the product.19/10/2017, By SharonI enjoyed changing over to the powder from the seeds, as it doesn't get stuck in my teeth.
