You know, I never asked myself this question before. I’ve always known that oils don’t have fiber at all. But then I also know that flax seed is one of the best sources of fiber that a person can find out there…
So, I had to check to see if there is any fiber in flax seed oil… And guess what, there actually is. One tablespoon of flax seed oil contains 1 gr of fiber.
Now, it’s a whole another story if you should rely on flax oil to supply your diet with fiber. Obviously you should not. What you should do is add fiber from ground flax seed, also fiber from fruit and veggies. The minimum should be about 35 gr a day. If you ask me.. double that. 35 gr is nothing to keep you colon healthy. I personally take a lot more than that.
