Question Flaxseed Oil: Preferred Method

Just a little thread to see how different folk who are taking flaxseed oil use it.

I buy the oil, and I was only using it by drizzling 2 tsp over my daily salad grrens during dinner. It tastes great! Today I decided to eat some tuna and went ahead and put in my 2 tsp in the tuna along with the tbs of real mayo that usually goes in with it. OMG! It was the best tuna I had ever eaten. I don't think I will ever eat tuna again without flaxseed oil in it lol!

Anyone else do anything interesting with flaxseed oil?

Thanks! I am going to try this. I usually just swallow the Flaxseed Oil and chase it with a gulp of tea or something, but this does sound like a good way to take it

I bought myself a pretty little porcelain cup from a Chinese import shop .... hand-painted, holds exactly 15 ml (1 Tbsp). I slurp the oil straight up, no chaser. One dose morning, one dose evening.

Yum
