Frequently asked questions
Why does the colour and texture vary?
Barlean's Lignan Flax Oil is unfiltered and contains particles of the whole seed, which settle at the bottom. The colour ranges from gold or amber to dark brown, and the texture is coarser with a robust flax flavour. Shake well before each use.
What are lignans?
Lignans are fibre solids from the hull of flax seeds and are powerful plant polyphenols similar to those found in green tea and red wine. These antioxidant-rich substances may promote heart and circulatory health and support healthy joints.
Is this oil suitable for cooking?
Flaxseed oil is not recommended for cooking as high temperatures can damage its nutritional benefits. It is often used for cast iron seasoning instead.
What makes this flaxseed oil different?
Barlean's uses a cold-pressed process without heat or solvents, protecting each drop from seed to bottle. The oil is made from organic, non-GMO flax seeds and contains no additives or preservatives.
