mean definition. In statistics, an average of a group of numbers or data points. With a group of numbers, the mean is obtained by adding them and dividing by the number of numbers in the group. Thus the mean of five, seven, and twelve is eight (twenty-four divided by three). (Compare median and mode.)
The University of Maryland Medical Center recommends adults consume 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed two to three times a day, or 2 to 4 tablespoons once per day. You can mix the ground seeds into cereal, yogurt, oatmeal or smoothies or sprinkle them generously on top of salads and vegetable dishes.
One ounce of flaxseeds is roughly 3Â½ Tablespoons. There's 3 teaspoons per Tablespoon .. so 10Â½ teaspoonsful of flaxseeds = one ounce. Fitday .. if you select seeds, flax seed you'll be given the option of 1 cup as the default, but you may change that to 1 Tbsp. Then you could just enter your portion size as 0.33 Tbsp. Even better, you could actually increase your portion to one Tbsp ;) Doreen
