Does Flax Oil get ruined when it is blended?

[CytoMel]

I dont think it does.

It seems to me like a blender would just chop up the flax into smaller particles but wouldnt destroy the flax benefits.

Does anyone know for sure?

 

[anthrax]

it is perfectly OK to blend flax seed oil

it wouldnt destroy the flax benefits
but you'll add the benefits of other oils

flax + olive oil = poly + mono-unsaturated fatty acids =

Only heat will destroy flax oil.

Oxygen degrades the flaxseed oil. That is why most bottles have some antioxidants in there to protect it from O2. Now when you shake the bottle, or put it in your shake, all you're doing is speeding up the process of degrading the flax. Just pour out a tablespoon and drink, that's the best way to take it. And keep refrigerated. Some supplement shops have caught on and keep flax refrigerated now, which is good thing.
