Flax seed is reported as working at lots of levels - flax seed oil is high in omega three and low in six;
Palmitic 3 Stearic 7 Oleic 21 linoliec 16 (omega six) Alpha-linolinic 53(omega three)
It is also reported as good at helping elimination both for roughage and because of the sticky nature of its coating....
It is also reported as containing soluable lignands which I keep seeing suggested as forming part of the bodies cellular functions, an all round plus it seems - interestigly some other small seed sources are also reported positively...
But as usual look it up for yourself if you have time on google NCBI etc.
