Because flax seed oil is more exposed to the air, flax seed oil quickly degrades and eventually goes rancid. Another advantage of eating flax seed over flax oil is that flax seed is a complete food providing you with the benefits of Omega3, 6 & 9 EFA's, fiber, protein, plant lignans, vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Flax oil, expelled from the flax seed, contains the EFA's but not the fiber, protein and plant lignans (an anti-cancer agent). Flax seed contains approximately 40% oil.
