I totally get it, trying to figure out how to eat these healthy seeds can be so confusing. Grounding them into a fine powder and adding just one spoon to your daily bowl of curd is a very gentle way to start.
In our younger days, we just dry-roasted flax seeds (alsi) and chewed a small spoonful after lunch. It keeps the stomach clean and gives good strength, just drink a glass of warm water after eating them.
Never eat raw flax seeds whole because they will just pass through your system undigested. Always grind them gently, store the powder in the fridge, and mix one tablespoon in your atta or buttermilk daily.
I once ignored severe bloating and self-medicated with high-fiber seeds, which ended up making my bowel issues much worse. Please get a proper medical checkup to find the root cause of your weight issues first.
Please don't blindly trust internet trends saying flax seeds will burn all your belly fat overnight. Always verify with your doctor or a qualified dietician before changing your daily diet drastically.

Flax seeds are great for healthy fats, but make sure you match it with physical activity. I add ground flax seeds to my post-workout shake and do 40 minutes of walking daily, which works great.
The most realistic tip is to roasted-grind them in small batches because flax seed powder goes rancid very quickly. I take one teaspoon with my morning oats and it keeps me full for hours.
