Is this an important supplement? What are the benefits of taking flax seed oil? I take quite a few other supplements and have very intense workouts........but my nutrition sucks!

whichever way is easiest to work it into your diet so that you consistently take it daily ... pills much easier than figuring out ways to sprinkle it over a salad or protein shake ... some people dont quite care for its taste...

Yes, it's very important, as it's a source of healthy fat. It provides both omega 3 and 6. It also helps correct lipid issues. The liquid is much cheaper than the pills, although the pills will be more convenient.

I usually only use it at night, so convenience isn't an issue for me. I'll take a tablespoon of it and chase it w/ a casein based protein shake before bed. Another benefit is helping to further slow the digestion of that shake, by adding fats. Flax and/or fish oil should be a staple, in my opinion.
