I just googled what you mentioned and this is the first thing that came up:

It raises many interesting points that I'm not going to allow myself to try to explain.

If you're absolutely panicked by the flax warnings, you can use fish oil instead of flax and receive many of the benefits, but you will have to find another source of fiber, and you absolutely will not get the anticancer and cardiovascular-promoting benefits of the flax lignans. (Barron)

Personally I would go ahead with it. But it's just one of those things that you'll have to decide for yourself. Kind of like the whole ordeal with tuna...it contains mercury. Is it worth the very small risk? Although I don't think that flax seed oil has any
verified health risks.
