    flaxseed nutritional information

    hey everyone, couldn't find this on the site, but in regards to ground flax seed vs. flax oil, how much ground flax seed equals 1 tblspn of the oil.... or does anyone have the nutrional profile of ground flaxseed???
    i bring the ground flax to work as i cannot bring the oil as we don't have a fridge at work

    also, swole u may be able to answer this best but anyone's input is very well appreciated... is ground flax and flax oil interchangeable in a cutting diet?

    thanks

    I can't actually pull up the thread, as it was a while ago....

    But I stopped using ground flax seed cause someone reputable on this board told me that we don't digest much, if any, of the actual seed.

    The flax oil capsules are much more forgiving than the oil if you don't have an fridge. I haven't ever kept mine in the fridge and they have been fine. However, I also wouldn't leave them in my car...

    Also, I remember I couldn't find the nutritional profile, but they had it on the container where I was purchasing the seed (it was in bulk).... so you may have to search around.

    Good luck.
