Generally speaking, yes. Flax oil contains "healthy" fats, which are needed by your body in many ways. Most people will take 1-2 tbsp daily.

Ah, that's what i thought. i'm guessing the actual liquid is better than the tablets?( the liquid seems hard to get hold of in the UK)?

Howbout the seeds themselves. I hear they need to be ground up though

i used to grind up flax seeds and throw them into my shakes because i didnt mind the taste as much as the oil and it was cheaper. bump on the pro's/con's on using seeds over oil.

you can buy the seeds already ground up for pretty cheap.

look for "milled" flax seeds.

Oil is superior to caps, as 1 tbsp oil = 14 caps...

Flax seeds are great to top off in your oatmeal, salads, etc.

Think I'll be a man and do shots of it 9although apparently it's not too tasy. Anyone one any decent websites that sll it? US UK or others as I'm sure they all do shipping.

Which type is the key.

When I'm dieting, as I lower my carbs to keep my calories high enough I often consume 6 even 9 tbs of flax seed oil per day. Any possible negative effects in doing so??
