Product Details

Virgin, unrefined flaxseed oil is considered by many to be the answer to the health dilemma. Oil extracted from natural GMO free flaxseeds is unique because it contains both essential fatty acids: alpha linolenic (ALA), an omega 3 fatty acid, and linoleic acid (LA), an omega 6 fatty acid, in appreciable amounts.

Flaxseed oil is one of the richest vegetable sources of omega 3 fatty acids typically between 50-60%. Omega 3 fatty acids have been extensively studied and is widely believed to assist maintaining a healthy heart and general well being.

Recommended Dosage

Take 1 teaspoonful twice a day. The oil has a slightly nutty taste and can be taken either on it's own or added to cereal yogurt or ice cream.

Use cold to preserve beneficial properties as an alternative to vegetable or olive oil.

Ingredients

Cold pressed unrefined flaxseed oil.

Recipes

Omega Salad Dressing - Thu 9th Jun 2011
Make a rich, sweet and nourishing salad dressing using 3 tbsps flaxseed oil, 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar 1 crushed garlic clove and 1 tbsp real maple syrup. This is fine for making in larger quantities as it keeps for weeks in the fridge.
