Storage & Cautions
Storage & Cautions
Storage:
Flax Original will remain fresh and tasty in the fridge for up to 12 weeks. You can place them into the freezer when purchased, as this suspends the shelf life which will kick back in once you take it out to use.
Cautions:
Flax Original can be used on cold, warm and hot foods just prior to serving, but should never be cooked or fried as this destroys their health-giving properties of this delicate oil. Never reheat food containing Flax Original.

Amazing stuff!
I have used WB flaxseed oil every morning on my muesli for about 10 years now, and it's great mixed with my fresh fruit topping. I cannot assert positively that it helps my joints, but I'm sure the benefits are multiple. My injured knee, with a long term ACL repair and other minor surgeries removing cartilege etc, does seem to be much better.
