Guest guest Posted September 21, 2003 Report Share Posted September 21, 2003 What are the thoughts on flax here? It appears as though flax (excess n-3 in general) is carcinogenic and highly susceptible to oxidation. As well, only about 15% of its n-3 content actually gets converted to EPA/DHA. Fish is definitely a better source of n-3 and if more is not any better... maybe extra flax is just increasing caloric intake and risks of cancer? Thoughts? - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
