Linseed Oil

Linseed oil, derived from flax seeds, is a versatile oil rich in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid beneficial for heart health. It’s also known for its anti-inflammatory properties and can help improve skin health and digestion. Used in cooking, it adds a nutty flavor to dishes and is a great alternative to other oils. Beyond the kitchen, linseed oil is popular in woodworking and art for its use as a natural varnish and paint medium. For best results, store it in a cool, dark place to prevent it from becoming rancid.
