Linseed or flax oil,?

[googol]

I have just run out of micronised linseed which I feed alongside boswellia serrata with the aim of helping my boys joints. I have him on a strict diet as he really needs to shed some weight this winter. I know people feed linseed for weight gain, is flax oil the same? Which would be best joint wise? Thanks!

Linseed and flax seed are two names for the same thing -so you are looking at two different forms of the same source product. Have been told that extracted oil is not as easy to digest for the horse, but overall both would be performing the same function.
