Flaxseed Oil

Flaxseed Oil


Flaxseed Oil (FLO) is extracted from premium flaxseeds (Linum usitatissimum L.). The flax plant is native to the region ranging from the eastern Mediterranean to India. Ancient peoples have utilized the flax plant for generations. When it was introduced into China following Zhang Qian’s diplomatic missions in the Han Dynasty, flax gained a foothold. Today, oil-used flax is mainly cultivated in regions such as the central and western parts of Inner Mongolia, northern Shanxi, and Huining in Gansu.
FLO is a rich source of omega-3 Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA), which is comprised of 18 carbon atoms and three double bonds. The health benefits of flaxseed oil are attributed to ALA. ALA is an unusual constituent of living matter and is found in very few plants. These include perilla, in addition to flax. ALA content in flaxseed oil ranges from approximately 50% to 70%, far exceeding most vegetable oils.
