Our seeds come ground which we do in small batches to ensure stability and nutrient quality of the seeds. Oxygen absorbers are also used in our Phase 1 and 2 containers.  When seed cycling, it's important to consume ground seeds as opposed to whole seeds for a few reasons.

First, consuming ground seeds makes it easier for the body to absorb the nutrients contained in the seeds. Whole seeds have a hard outer shell that can be difficult for the body to break down, which can limit the amount of nutrients that are absorbed. Ground seeds, on the other hand, have a larger surface area, making it easier for the body to access the nutrients contained within them.

Second, ground seeds are often easier to digest than whole seeds, which can be beneficial for people with gastrointestinal issues.

Seed cycling is not recommended for people who have seed allergies to all four key seeds, including flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and sesame seeds. However, there are alternative approaches you can explore. For instance, if you're allergic to sesame seeds but not to the other three seeds, you can still seed cycle by following Phase 1 as usual, and in Phase 2, doubling the dose of the sunflower seeds instead of including sesame seeds. With this modification, you can still experience the benefits of seed cycling and promote hormonal balance naturally.
