About Flax oil

Flax oil, derived from flaxseeds, is a nutrient-rich cooking oil with origins rooted in ancient Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. This golden oil is celebrated for its high content of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential omega-3 fatty acid that supports heart health, brain function, and inflammation regulation. Packed with antioxidants and beneficial fats, flax oil is a popular choice for vegan and vegetarian diets as a plant-based omega-3 source. While it offers numerous health benefits, flax oil is best consumed raw, as its delicate structure can break down under high heat, producing harmful compounds. It is often drizzled over salads, smoothies, or dishes to maximize its nutritional value. Rich in lignans, flax oil may also support hormone balance. However, moderation is key, as overconsumption may lead to digestive upset. Store it in a cool, dark place to preserve its freshness and potency.
