flax seed oil

[BigEasy]

would this still offer the same benefits?? i would MUCH rather take a capsule, and/or eat flax seeds, than guzzle down yucky flax seed oil

If by 'same benefits,' you mean high quality oil rich in Omega's, yes!!!

Plus, you get some great fibre as an added bonus, along with some complex carbos and protein. Read some of the links in my prior message, I think you would find it worth trying.

If you don't want to sink much money into trying the ground flax seeds, buy a quarter pound from your local health nut.....er......health FOOD store. Use a coffee grinder or blender to grind the seeds into flax meal. See what you think.

I don't see why you can't take a capsule.. I cut one of mine open and poured it out, it seems to be the same stuff as in the oil. Looks and tastes the same anyway..

It's just the oil surrounded by a shell..

As PSB pointed out, it's expensive and requires lots of caps be swallowed. It is also difficult to assess the freshness and quality of the encapsulated oil. It REALLY should be cold pressed in a vacuum or inert gas atmosphere (like nitrogen) and maintained refrigerated until consumed.
