flax seed meal vs. oil

[powerhouse972]

Why is oil better? You can get 16 grams of fat from both so why pay more for oil?

I am studying for this pathophysiology test I have on Friday and one of the chapters is on cellular proliferation ( cancer).
Anyways, they are saying that polyunsaturated fats, especially omega 6 "promote" cancer more effectively than saturated fats. Now I take flax seed oil which is 20% Omega 6 I beleive and a lot of bros do to. So good for your heart but cancer promoting????



What about this?
anyone know anything about this, I just read this today....
