From your post:
they show that flaxseed oil is very high in alphalinoleic acid - not something you want going into your system, due to it's tendency to move production toward the 'bad' eicosanoid direction.







WOW!

This subject is completely new to me, and I must acknowledge that I don't know anything about it. Can you tell me if they mean that no one should use flaxseed oil, or is there a particular group of folks who should not use it. I use it for several reasons:
1. constipation relief
2. I have arterial disease, have had 1 coronary stent, and have problems with the circulation in my legs.
3. Have high triglycerides, which I believe is caused by type 2 diabetes. Have not been tested since my blood glucose has been lowered, and I have lost 22 pounds.

Please can you give me more laymen term reasoning why we should not take flaxseed oil.

I would really appreciate it. Have not read Protein Power.

Thanks.
