In practice
Flax seeds are small, glossy and rich in omega-3 fats, and a cup of whole seeds weighs about 168 g on this page. Whole seeds often pass through the body undigested, so grinding them (flax meal) makes the nutrients available, and ground flax is lighter per cup than whole. Mixed with water, ground flax forms a gel that can replace an egg in many baked goods. Store ground flax in the fridge, since it goes rancid much faster than whole seeds.
How to convert cups of flax seeds to grams
