Made from organic, non-GMO flaxseeds sourced from Canada, cold-pressed at a low temperature of 50°C. The process involves no heating, preserving the maximum nutritional value of the flaxseed oil. Each 15 ml (1 tablespoon) of flaxseed oil contains over 8,000 mg of omega-3 fatty acids and 2,000 mg of omega-3 fatty acids. It has a mild bitterness, which is a testament to its lack of chemical refining.
The final product undergoes a patented micron filtration purification technology with 3 stages of purification to remove impurities and enhance purity. As a result, Gaconba Organic Cold-Pressed Flaxseed Oil has a higher smoke point compared to regular flaxseed oil, making it suitable for higher-temperature cooking such as frying and stir-frying.
