Oil products
The oil used for ElixiR foodstuffs is pressed from the very best flax in oxygen-free conditions gently by cold-pressing. The Oxysafe method used by Elixi Oil Oy allows the temperature of both seeds and the oil to remain under 37 degrees centigrade during the entire process. Linseed oil is easily oxidizing and it loses its good qualities when coming into contact with the air's oxygen, high temperature or daylight.
The fatty acid composition in linseed oil is beneficial for human well-being. Almost 80 % of the fatty acids are polyunsaturated and approx. 13 % for their part monounsaturated ones. Linseed oil contains the essential alpha- linolenic acid (Omega-3) more than any other known vegetable oil.
Linseed oil is available in bottles, in cans, in drums and in capsules.
