I do not find the answer in any of my books, but since the flax is 3 gm. carbs/3 gm. fiber I would not worry about it. I do know that Atkins said to use fiber for a laxative...so I would just count it as fiber.
"You can also take 1 Tbs. of course wheat bran or flaxseed meal....you can sprinkle bran over your vegetables or blend flaxseed meal into a shake." DANDR page 75.
This section is just before the listing of induction foods.

Thanks Ruth. I generally sprinkle 2TB of ground flaxseeds on my lunch salad, so I'm happy it should be ok on induction.
Believe it or not, I don't have that book, I have the original one from 1972.
Thanks again.
