How to Use Flax Oil in Your Daily Routine

Because flax oil is sensitive to heat, it should not be used for cooking. Instead, incorporate it into cold dishes or take it directly by the spoonful. Popular ways to enjoy it include drizzling over salads, blending into smoothies, mixing into yoghurt or oatmeal, or adding to dips and dressings. Start with one tablespoon (15 mL) per day and adjust to your preference. Always refrigerate after opening and use within the recommended timeframe.

Who Can Benefit from a Flax Oil Supplement?

Anyone looking to increase their intake of plant-based omega-3s and antioxidants may find flax oil beneficial. It is especially popular among vegetarians and vegans who prefer a non-fish source of essential fatty acids. The lignans also offer specific support for digestive regularity and hormonal balance, making it a valuable addition for women’s health.* As with any supplement, consult your healthcare provider before starting a new regimen, particularly if pregnant, nursing, or taking medication.

Frequently Asked Questions About Flax Oil

Do I need to refrigerate this oil?

Yes, flax oil is perishable and should be kept chilled at all times to preserve its freshness and prevent oxidation. Do not leave it at room temperature for extended periods.

What is the difference between regular flax oil and high-lignan flax oil?

High-lignan flax oil is processed to retain more of the natural lignans found in flax seeds. This provides additional antioxidant benefits compared to standard flax oil, which may have lignans removed during refining.

Can I cook with this oil?

No, heating flax oil can damage its delicate fatty acids and create harmful compounds. Use it only in cold preparations or take it directly.

What Is High Lignan Flax Oil?

Flora High Lignan Flax Oil is a premium, unrefined dietary oil derived from organic flax seeds. It combines the essential fatty acids (EFAs) omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 with naturally occurring lignans—plant compounds that act as antioxidants and support overall wellness.* This cold-pressed oil is carefully processed to preserve its nutritional integrity, making it a convenient addition to a balanced diet.

Key Benefits of Flax Oil with Lignans

Flax oil is one of the richest plant sources of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid that contributes to maintaining good health.* The addition of lignans, such as secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG), provides antioxidant support that may aid digestive health and hormonal balance.* Each serving delivers a concentrated blend of essential nutrients without artificial additives.
