No, you should not cook with flax seed oil, nor should you heat it above 120°F. Flax oil contains high levels of polyunsaturated fats -- these are good for us when intact, but are destroyed by heat, thereby releasing free radicals.

Use oils higher in monounsaturated fats for cooking (e.g. olive or canola oil) and only use flax seed oil cold, such as in salad dressings.

I wouldn't. Flax seed oil is linseed oil - more commonly used in making paint than cooking, at least in North America. It is edible, but it has a very strong - as in very strong - taste, much like paint smells.

Yes. But why anyone would want to take them both together is beyond me. If you are already taking flax seed oil, what would you need olive oil for?

Yes, flaxseeds can be cooked. The most common way flaxseeds are cooked are when baked in breads, muffins, and more.
