Nutritional Composition

Theerthaa Flaxseed Oil is primarily composed of unsaturated fats, including essential fatty acids. It contains alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which belongs to the omega-3 family and is commonly found in plant-based oils. The oil also naturally contains lignans, a group of plant compounds found in the seed husk, though their concentration in the oil is relatively small compared to whole flaxseeds.

As a part of a varied and balanced diet, flaxseed oil can be included in recipes that do not require heating, helping to maintain its delicate properties.

Ways to Use Flaxseed Oil

1. In the Kitchen:
Due to its low smoke point, flaxseed oil is best used without cooking. It can be added to:

Salad dressings

Smoothies or shakes

Drizzled over steamed vegetables

Mixed with yogurt or dips

2. For Skin Care:
The natural emollient properties of flaxseed oil make it a popular choice for moisturizing:

Apply a small amount to clean skin as a lightweight moisturizer.

Blend into face masks or use as a base oil with essential oils.

3. For Hair Care:
When applied topically, flaxseed oil can be used in hair masks or scalp massage routines. Its texture allows it to coat the strands gently:

Warm slightly and massage into the scalp.

Leave it for 30 minutes before rinsing with a mild shampoo.

Why Cold Pressing Matters

Cold pressing is a traditional method of oil extraction that involves grinding seeds without applying high heat. This approach helps maintain the oil’s natural taste, aroma, and nutrient composition. Compared to refined oils that go through chemical processing, cold-pressed oils are closer to their raw form and better suited for natural living enthusiasts.

Theerthaa follows a wooden cold-pressing technique (also known as “chekku” or “ghani” method in India), which has been used for generations. This process not only preserves the oil’s characteristics but also aligns with environmentally conscious, small-batch production practices.

Storage and Shelf Life

To ensure maximum freshness and quality:

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Refrigeration after opening is recommended.

Best consumed within 6 months from the date of opening.

Flaxseed oil is sensitive to heat and light. Always close the lid tightly and use a clean spoon or pour directly to avoid contamination.

Whether you’re enhancing your meals with a nutty drizzle or using it in your self-care rituals, it’s a gentle, plant-based option.
