There is no standard dosing for flaxseed oil. It is available as an oil used in food preparation and in gel cap supplements. The recommended dosage varies based on the manufacturer. Consult your doctor to determine if a flaxseed oil supplement is right for you.
Flaxseed oil can be used as a salad oil, in cold sauces, and added to juice, shakes, or smoothies. However, the oil should not be used in recipes that require heating, such as stir-fries or baking. When it is exposed to heat, it can form harmful chemicals.
In addition to using in food, flaxseed oil can be applied to the skin or added to your favorite skin cream to increase moisture in the skin and improve skin health. Moreover, it can be applied to hair to promote shine and growth. *
