Pibikay,
Flax seed can be a nice addition to the diet. I prefer ground flax seed/meal because it provides the benefit of adding extra fiber. Flax is a good source of Omega-3s but our bodies aren't very efficient in converting it to the active form. The Omega-3s in fish are more readily available to us and do not require the extra conversion. Flax oil may also be used but I don't feel strongly about adding it into the diet. Olive oil would be the preferred oil for cooking.
