There has been some stories floating around, that 'some people' cannot convert the oils to useful omega-3's in their bodies. Is this true? (It would be a serious blow for vegetarians, as flax is one of the few vegetarian sources of this essential fat) I have also read somewhere, that 'some people' cannot digest flax seeds properly and that it generates some kind of toxin in their bodies for that reason. Is that true? 'Some people' was supposed to be caucasians for the most part I think. A question for the experts.
