Fats are not soluble in water so there's nothing to worry about there ever. You can crush them and mix them in a drink, salad, or meal and get some omega-3's there. Flaxseeds are one of THE best sources of ALA or alpha linolenic acid which is a type of Omega 3 fat and its the essential fatty acid you're mentioning. Its been shown to be anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, immune-boosting, and helps regulate blood sugar for the overweight and pre-type II diabetic not to mention the fiber! Important: If you're buying the whole seeds, you need to break the outer shell before you eat them. The seed in its whole form cannot be digested by humans and you won't get any benefits besides the fiber. Grind or crush them before you eat them.
