I started taking it because it is very good for us. I take the flax oil rather than the seeds. If you use the seeds you must grind them up. They don't digest if eaten whole and will not give you any real benefits other than fiber.I have found a great way to get fiber. It is a product named Benefiber.You can mix it in any drink except carbonated drinks and you can''t tell it is there. Mix it in your eggs before you scramble them,put it in salad dressings,mix it in ice cream,They need to put it in packets like artificial sweeteners.Flax oil and fiber and your good.

Fiber from flax seed is great. Don't expect much from flax seed oil. You can get flax seed form a number of sources on the Internet. The best way to consume flax seed is grind your own with a coffee grinder. Golden flax seed is the best, Just Yahoo Flax seed.

Sorry, I don't know where you can find it in your part of the world!
I put a tablespoon of flax seed into 12 oz boiling water for 20 minutes. I drink the tea and eat the softened seeds, chewing well.
They are a good addition to one's diet.
