Can you cook with flax >oil? I just picked up some flax oil capsules at a local "natural foods" store and they recommend 1-2 per day (1000mg capsules). You can add flax seeds to baked goods (breads etc.) and there is a recipe to use flax as an egg replacer. I wonder how much flax seed it takes to get a day's worth of the magic oil? I am very interested in this as I am anaphylactic to fish, and thus almost certainly deficient in Omega-3 fatty acid! I am happy to learn there is another source, as I have often wondered what effect this could have. --Robyn
