flaxseed oil or walnuts?

[Loochi]

Which would you rather get and why??

I just started to buy walnuts but it's pretty pricey. Is it worth it compared to flaxseed oil?

[Sportsgirl]

Definitely walnuts. They taste so much better than Flaxseed oil.

[Loochi]

Ofcourse I agree with you sports girl... But I don't care about taste eh lol. Like, with flaxseed oil you can just put it in your oats or something I guess lol.

Any other benefits other than taste, guys?

I duno about better for you but IMO flaxseed oil tastes way better!! Kinda tastes like nuts. But walnuts have a yuck after taste

[Loochi]

Lol Peachy. That's the first I heard someone choose that over walnuts.

Anyone?? Please I don't want to hear about which tastes better lol.

I've been using flaxseed oil caps - just gulp them down, and this is the first I've heard of using whole nuts, walnuts, almonds or anything else, as a source (of fats, presumably?).

My question would be what else is in the whole walnuts over and above the content you would be eating them for ? Niacin, other?
