to those poor misguided souls ,

flax and linseed oil are like chalk and cheese .

If you drink linseed oil or paint stripper ( as it is also known) you may rip your stomach out on the way , this is because the linseed oil is rancid and not fit for human consumption .
Flax oil and flax meal are highly unstable and need to be treated in a special way to prevent them from going rancid and from becoming toxic like linseed oil .

Ground flax is a marvellous form of fibre ,it is a great filler for mince and muffins and goes well in shakes . It is packed with healthy omega-3 oils and is the next best to fish oils .

Yes it can taste a bit grassy on its own , but why would you want to have it alone ??
Try ground flax , soy protein powder , hot water and Hermasetas gold with a dash of cinnamon ,butter or cream and voila you have porridge !!!!!!

give it try it wont bite and you may like it tooooo
