I was contacting Salba because I wondered if I should use whole or ground seeds. Here is their reply.
I see nowhere on if there is any difference eating whole or crushed.
Some grains you don't get all nutrition of it if you eat them whole so I wonder if the stomach will digest them whole or if it is best with crushed ones.
We assume that the nutrients from the whole Salba seed are available for absorption as well as those from ground Salba, because Salba has an open husk that softens up when it gets in contact with any fluid. Also, when you add the seed to water you can see that it absorbs a lot of water, indicating the seed is easily accessible.
I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me again.
Enjoy Salba!
