Our virgin organic linseed oil is made from high-quality, organically grown linseed. The linseed comes from controlled organic cultivation, preferably from regional sources, and is supplemented by Naturland-certified organic linseed from selected growing regions in Europe and overseas. Gentle cold-pressing takes place in Germany immediately after harvest to preserve freshness and valuable ingredients as best as possible. Cold-pressing at temperatures below 40°C optimally preserves the heat-sensitive omega-3 fatty acid ALA. The oil is then filtered to remove natural residues without compromising purity and quality.
The freshly milled linseed oil is bottled in a light-protected container, which prevents oxidation and extends shelf life. The result is a clear, mildly nutty linseed oil with a pleasant, bitter flavor—a sign of the highest quality and freshness.
Flaxseed oil is a rich, plant-based source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) – an essential omega-3 fatty acid that the human body cannot produce itself and therefore must be obtained through food. ALA plays a key role in metabolism and contributes to maintaining normal blood cholesterol levels. 1 It is not only an important component of cell membranes but also serves as a biochemical precursor for the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) in the body.
Our mill-fresh, virgin organic linseed oil offers a balanced spectrum of eight different fatty acids, preserved in their natural form through gentle, organic processing. It's ideal for cold dishes—for example, as an ingredient in salad dressings, muesli, or smoothies—but should not be used for frying due to its sensitivity to oxidation.
