linseed oil - difference?

[tinker88]

Hi

Ive just bought some linseed oil on special.

Who feeds it and can you really see a difference? Or should i buy the micronised/cooked type

thanks

any photos by the way to show the difference?

Micronised linseed is the whole seed. So you get the benefit of the amino acids which are one of the key benefits of linseed (high quality protein source), as well as the oil (inc the omega 3 & 6)

The oil is just the oil and unless you know how it has been extracted then there is the possiblity that the Omega 3 & 6 have been destroyed in the processing.
