Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil
Our golden flaxseed oil is cold pressed on our Catskill farm in small batches. We grow golden flax because the oil has a pleasant, nutty-buttery flavor. Golden flax also has a higher level of omega-3 essential fatty acid at a higher percentage than the brown flax. Golden flax seed has a hull that is easier to press and looks lovely in a dressing or when mixed into your favorite recipes.
Flaxseed oil contains a type of omega-3 fatty acid called alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). The body uses ALA from flaxseed oil and converts it in small amounts to other fatty acids.
Omega-3 fatty acids are vital to a person’s physical and mental health.
Flaxseed oil is a good substitute for fish oil if you want to add plant-based omega-3 fatty acids to your diet.
