Why flaxseed oil from a horse?
Al-Hassan Factory has been working in the natural food products sector for over thirty years, and its products reach Bahrain, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, and Germany. Flaxseed oil is one of the most sensitive oils to heat and light, so we cold-press it and bottle it directly without an intermediate storage stage.
Instructions for use
- In food: A teaspoon is added to salad, yogurt, or juice. It should never be used for cooking over a fire because it is one of the oils that is most affected by heat.
- For hair: Distribute on the ends or scalp and leave before washing.
- For skin: Apply a light wipe as a night moisturizer.
Note: This is a natural food product, not a medicine. Those taking medication regularly should consult a healthcare professional before daily use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between flaxseed oil and flaxseeds?
Oil is the fatty part extracted from the seed by pressing, while the whole seed contains fiber and protein in addition to oil. Those who want to add oil directly to food choose oil, while those who want the whole seed for use ground or added to baked goods choose the whole seed.
Is flaxseed oil used in cooking?
It is not recommended to use it over heat. Flaxseed oil is one of the most sensitive oils to heat, and heating it alters its properties and taste. The correct use is to add it cold after cooking, or to salads, smoothies, and yogurt.
How should flaxseed oil be stored?
Store in a cool, dark place, and always refrigerate after opening, as it is one of the most prone oils to oxidation. Close the container tightly after each use, and avoid leaving it near the oven or in direct sunlight.
How long is it valid for after opening?
When refrigerated, it retains its quality for weeks after opening. A practical indicator is the smell and taste: if a rancid smell or unusually sharp taste appears, this means the oil has oxidized and should no longer be used.
