Flax seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, especially alpha-linolenic acid, and many people want to include more flax seed in their diet to achieve the potential health benefits of a diet rich in beneficial fatty acids. Including healthy amounts of flax seed or flax seed oil in your diet is especially important if you do not regularly consume fatty cold water fish; another important source of beneficial fatty acids.
