If you check out using the search facility there is a heap of information on flax and flax oil.

(click on search and enter flax, flax seed, flaxseed etc)

There is a lot of discussion about flax seed and oil.

The best thing to do is print out some of the info and discussions with your advisor.

Flax is high in omega three. Many see omega threes as assisting. (see posts on omega three and six)

Flax seed also contains lignans. Most oils do not contain the lignans but some do. Some researches say that the lignans in flax assist. I have previously posted some material on this. Others are cautious.

I hope this helps
