What is your opinion of flax seed and oil? Can you use this in place of heavy cream? Do you get more benefits from the flax?

Flax seed/oil is a great fat source. You can definitely use it instead of the cream if you like. The cream is cheaper, tastes incredible in the shakes and is very effective in the application which we use it for building muscle and losing fat. Flax oil has less saturated fat and also the benefit of being a great source of EFAs. You’ll see that we list Flax Oil in our Master Food Lists for the diets you see in our Nutrition, Training and Supplement Solutions at http://www.bevnut.com/faq/
