The omega-3 in flax helps ward off fatal heart attacks, autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, severe menstrual cramps, and depression. Furthermore, modern diets - even healthy ones - are deficient in omega-3.
Pre-ground flax loses potency in a matter of a few days - long before it's delivered to the store, shelved and sold to you. Cooking kills the rest of its benefits.
