Flaxseed oil - fresh to order

Flaxseed oil in production
The linseed oil we sell is 100 percent Swiss Made. We use exclusively selected and purified linseed from sustainable, controlled Swiss cultivation in Unterkulm, which is pesticide-free. This high-quality raw material is cold-pressed in our factory at a maximum temperature of 29 degrees Celsius to preserve as many of the valuable ingredients as possible. To meet our high quality standards, we do not produce in large quantities, but prepare the oil fresh every week in the required quantities.-> This means that our flaxseed oil isn't always available directly in our store. If it's not available online, please contact us.

Buy linseed oil for the kitchen

The delicate, mildly nutty aroma of the oil pairs perfectly with vegetables, especially potatoes, and salads. Bitter lettuces and chicory, in particular, complement our oil perfectly. Of course, you can also use it in muesli, quark, yogurt, or smoothies—the sky's the limit. It's even occasionally enjoyed on its own.

To preserve all the important nutrients, it's important not to heat the linseed oil and only use it cold. This is the only way to ensure that the wonderful ingredients aren't lost under heat.

Why should linseed oil be stored fresh and refrigerated?
Omega-3 fatty acids are sensitive to light, oxygen, and heat. Freshly cold-pressed linseed oil is therefore kept refrigerated to best preserve its quality and mild flavor.

I follow the Budwig diet – is your linseed oil suitable for this?
Yes, our cold-pressed, fresh linseed oil is ideal for the Budwig diet. It is carefully produced according to the highest quality standards and is perfect for the traditional blend with quark or yogurt. Fresh pressing and refrigerated storage ensure that the valuable fatty acids are preserved.

Why is linseed oil a good plant-based source of omega-3?
Flaxseed oil contains a high proportion of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid. It is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 and is therefore often incorporated into a healthy diet.
