My roommate is suddenly on a flaxseed kick, just last night she bought the ground flaxseed and used it to make burgers. I've been known to mix the ground flaxseed into my peanut butter to help get more omega 3's in my diet, I guess the stuff is good for you.

I have a pretty balanced diet but I do take salmon oil gelcaps, zinc, and B12 complex pills.
I read that flax seed oil is good but that fish oil is a more balanced source of Omega-3 complexes so I switched from flax to fish oil supps.

One thing of interest is that different types of honey have properties that improve your health in different ways. The darker honeys like buckwheat honey have strong antioxidant properties.

Some research has shown that certain types of honey are good for wound healing.

Some researchers from Penn State have recently shown that Buckwheat honey is better then the OTC children’s cough medicines for children’s cough. There is a web site that talks about this, and gives lots of research to help people understand how honey effects health. Check out http://www.honeydontcough.com/
