IMHO
flax should only be used in conjunction with ala and
only if you will not take fish oils.
You need around 120g of flax to equal the
12g of fish oils I suggest for optimal levels.

(Those extra calories from the flax have to be taken back out of the other fat choices in the diet to keep the balance.)
(plus you need the butter as a fat to get the right kind of saturated fat yur missing from meats, which you DO need if you work out intensly and are trying to build/maintain muscle.)
