If you've had any kind of rearrangement of intestine, you would have questionable fat/oil absorption. As far as I know, the pills are just oil in a convenient package. If you really want the benefit of the flax, though, you might want to go to a health food store, check the refrigerated section for flax SEEDS. I bought ground (milled), some prefer to grind their own. They are tiny, but once ground, they are like dust or flakes. They have a pleasant flavor and many use them in their protein shakes or on yogurt or cottage cheese. You'd get more benefit from gound seeds than from either oil preparation.

I would go with the oil bc your body will be able to assimilate it right away rather than breakdown a pill. Liquid vits or supplements are up to 98% more absorbable.
