Type of flaxseed to buy, where, how much?
I need more EFA's in my diet (thx atherjen
)
I have been doing searches on various forums.
People's advice range from pill to powder to oil... I don't know which avenue to go!!!
I am guessing oil as it will be easy to put in my shakes, I only need to take it one or two times as opposed to pills (like 5-10 times).
How long does it last? Where can I buy it? How much will it cost me?
Logistics!"It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great."

Barleans Flax Seed Oil is the best. It's in the refrigerated section. They alos have organic and high-lingan varieties. Eat a lot of tuna and take the flax and you get the best of both worlds, IMO. NO flax w/ protein, unless you're intent on slowing protein uptake. Yes flax with oral PH (non-mehthylated).

I was actually reading that they are better... but it seems no one takes them from everything I have read?
Do you take them? How much are they? Just one capsule a day?"It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great."

Actually most people here take them.
I take them yes. I take 8-10 caps a day of the 50% EPA/DHA. If I buy the lower EPA/DHA then I take 15-20 caps a day.

I have to say that Barleans is the best tasting Flax Oil, especially the high- lignan.
