It has to be used in the raw form…Just powder the seeds without adding water and this fine powder can be added to milk water or juice….
It can be used for as long as you want so that you get the daily dose of omega 3 fatty acids.

Ready made date syrup is available in various super markets. Eg Lions date syrup….
