i know this is the wrong place to post but didnt want to make a thread about it, what is flax seed oil and how will it benefit me gaining weight?? i know it contains 'essential fatty acids' but i dont have any idea how that will benefit me as it gives no nutritional information. Just gone out and bought some that is very stupid of me, since i dont basicaly know what they are.
Thanks all

well, you can get your ALA's from that if you are cycling and that would be good. It has omega-3 and omega-6 fattie acids in good ratios.
It has fiber, protein, lignans, EFA's
The Lignans are anti cancer, anti bacterial and anti viral properties.
You can buy it in oil or raw but raw it needs to be ground up for digestion.
I think it makes my protein shakes taste better. It is a good food.

ok, ty scott. Do you think that all this is good for you though??? You see in the paper and on the news all the time how these everyday items cause cancer and all the rest. Heck they are even saying that STATIN products cause cancer and loss of memory and they are supposed to help you. I dunno we never know what we are eating nowadays so we may as well shove it down our necks anyway. what do u think about these potential dangers in everyday products hacksii?

Don't worry, flax seed oils are a good thing. They are second best to fish oils. The fish oils are omega 3. Olive oils are omega 6. Ratio of the two is very important. I can guarantee you don't get enough omega 3's. They say if you have dry skin, flax seed oil will get rid of that. Don't forget, fats supress insulin more than protein. Do the math. On the atkins diet, if you can't get into ketosis, then you need more fat. Fat is your friend, bad carbs are your enemy.

Wow bro, I could not have said that better myself.

I will say this, Flax Seed oil is a good thing.

Seriously, I would add flax seed oil or raw flax seed to my whey protein drink along with some strawberries, blueberries or even a bannana and just drink it down and enjoy. 40 grams of protein (just under 2 scoops) some milk and ice. Yummy. I would not blend all or even most of my meals but in a quick fix, I do this all the time when I feel hungry.

Yummy. That sounds so gay. Sorry bro. Yes I agree. Only food that was made by God is best. The man made crap is exactly that. Breads, pasta, all sugars, no good. Try to stick with the stuff our great great grandparents used to build this great country, or countries. I am off my soap box now.

You made me laugh bro! Maybe I should not have had that last beer. OOPS!

I was just laughing from what I wrote, not all that honest, had some help.

I need to take a picture of me at 44 years old. To compare of course. I need a good camera guy.

**hackskii** · 05-12-2003, 04:24 AM

Good camera gay?
I will have to ask around for that one?
