I was wondering if anybody knows if using flax seed capsules are the same as using the actual flax seed oil?


Thanks!

Patty, we had a pretty long discussion about this not that long ago, you'll find the thread here

It is the same product BUT you would need to take a whole lot of capsules to get the amount you need everyday. Some people take 3 Tbsp a day of the oil. Also the oil has an expiry date and is sold refrigerated in a dark bottle to protect it from spoiling... god knows what the oil inside the capsules tastes like.

If you havent got any yet, stick with the oil. It can be mixed with your food to as a dressing or whatever.

Thanks for the insite...I just wasn't sure about the difference!!

besides, the oil is rather tasty, good on salads and in tuna and on salmon and well, you get my drift
