Hello,
I have been wondering about this. Are the temperatures and air of a dehydrator damaging to ground flax seed. Normally, it is stored in the refrigerator to protect the fragile fatty acids from oxidation. It seems that exposing the insides of seeds to these elements may diminish nutrition and even cause it to be dangerous.
Thanks!

I have done some research into this. The actual tests that have done show that heating is not dangerous, even at temps that are much higher than we use when dehydrating. . You can read more here: http://www.flaxcouncil.ca/english/pdf/stor.pdf
