Cold-pressed Oil has never been an alien concept for Indian sub-continent. We had been using it for centuries altogether, but with time, and alien (and not so very healthy) practices we have shifted away from our purer roots. 

Cold-press process ensures that aroma, taste, nutrients of the seeds are retained in oil. Such pure breed of oils can be used for cooking, or on skin, or on hair. Essentially, it's an all-purpose bottle, in short.

All the Flax seeds are procured directly from the farmers in Uttarakhand and Oils derived in-house. Believe us when we say, its 100 percent pure, no colorants, no chemicals, no heated process, no bullshit. Its Purest Oil that you deserve & we deliver to you!!

Flaxseed oil is also often referred to as Linseed oil by some individuals or Organizations. We will however, keep it simple as Flaxseed Oil. In India this has been used since centuries with the name of "Alsi Beej". Alsi is actually one of the oldest crops and is emerging as important functional food ingredients because of its richness in a-linolenic acid (ALA). If you must know, flaxseed is the richest plant source of omega-3 fatty acids. In fact, it contains 50 to 60 percent Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).

Much like flax seeds, flaxseed oil is loaded with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. In fact, one tablespoon (15 ml) contains an impressive 7,196 mg of omega-3 fatty acids.

Specifically, flaxseed oil contains alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a form of omega-3 fatty acid that is only converted in small amounts to active forms of omega-3, like EPA and DHA.

If you aren’t getting enough DHA and EPA in your diet, most guidelines recommend at least 1,600 mg of ALA omega-3 fatty acids daily for men and 1,100 mg for women. Just one tablespoon of flaxseed oil can meet and exceed your daily ALA needs!!

Let's scan through it usages: 

Skin & Hair:

 Flaxseed oil is great to improve to improve skin elasticity. The Omega fatty acids in flaxseed oil work inside out to keep your skin moisturised and hydrated. Due to the increased levels of moisture, it reduces the appearance of wrinkles and other ageing signs. This wondrous oil can be applied to skin to sooth irritations or reduce roughness. As flaxseed has anti-inflammatory properties, it can also help prevent skin irritation, redness, allergies and tissue inflammation. Conditions such as acne can be controlled too since flaxseeds inhibit the production of sebum, an oily substance produced by the skin glands. 

In Ayurvedic texts, flaxseeds are known for hot, pungent, heavy, purgative and strengthening qualities. Massage your skin with flaxseed to lock-in the moisture and also reduce wrinkles. The omega-3 in flaxseeds helps your body to produce collagen thats keeps the skin elastic and young. To add further, compounds in the oil called lignans brighten and lighten the complexion since these are potent antioxidants that protect the skin from sun damage.

 The Vitamin E in flaxseed oil helps with hair loss and stimulate growth of new hair. Lignans act as strong antioxidants that can help in the regrowth of healthier and stronger hair. Topical application of flaxseed oil has been found to prevents flaking and nourishes the scalp from within, providing relief from dandruff.

 

Edible Usage:

It can also be added to salad dressings, soups, and sauces, used in oatmeal, smoothies, drizzle over roasted vegetables, or simply take a spoon of oil to have the complete dose of required fatty acids. Make sure you like the taste before adding it to a large serving of food.

We do not recommend deep frying and cooking with flaxseed oil as it will become rancid, and lose many of its nutritional properties.

Inflammation reduction:

One analysis of multiple human studies found flaxseed contained compounds helpful for reducing C-reactive protein (an inflammation marker) in some of the study participants.

Worth a note:

 Research suggests that flax seed oil has potential health benefits related to cardiovascular disease, cancer, prostate problems, inflammation, digestive issues and osteoporosis. Furthermore, test-tube studies have produced similar findings, with several studies showing that flaxseed oil reduced the growth of breast cancer cells. Excess intake may cause nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps, reduce quantity intake.

Worthy Advice: Go ahead, and replace those commercial low nutrient oils with the healthy ones right away!
