flaxseed oil freshness


Barb
 

The flaxseed oil I bought the two days ago tastes
like linseed oil I think but it was in
refrigerator at store and also freshness date is
okay. How does one not waste money on oil that
has gone rancid? It is expensive to replace.
Can you order it direct or anything?

Flaxseed oil should taste like linseed oil because that is what it is.
Commercial linseed oil has chemicals added to preserve it and should
never never never be used as food. I buy certified organic oil from
Swansons for around $17.00 a quart including shipping. I buy it plain
and add ground flax seed to it when I mix focc. The price per 16 oz
bottle is actually $6.90. I buy 3 bottles at a time and put them
immediately in the refrigerator. I never eat it straight so I do not
know what it taste like. I sometimes smell it and it always smells
fresh.

Charles,
I went to Swansons and only non high lignan I could find was item
#SWE003. Is this the item you are using? The list of ingredients
were as follows "Proprietary Antioxidant blend (Rosemary, mixed
tocopherols, ascorbyl palmitate, citric acid).

Those individual ingredients are not necessarily bad but concerned
what it may do to the oil. However it would seem that it did not
hurt you but had great success and quickly. Did you make any other
changes in your diet like avoiding meat, etc?
