Flax Seed Oil: Our premium quality, unrefined flax seed oil is Hexane free. Hexane is a chemical solvent used by many manufacturers to extract the oil from the seed, and can be extremely allergic for dogs and cats. Solid Gold Flax Seed Oil is expeller pressed to maintain levels of free fatty acids and protective, antioxidant nutrients. The health benefits of supplementation with flax seed oil for pets are numerous. Flax seed oil is rich in Omega 3 and 6 Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's) which are protective against degenerative disease and illness, including bone and joint problems, cancer, and cardiovascular, kidney and auto immune disease. Flax seed oil is excellent for improving skin conditions such as dandruff or allergic irritation. It also improves the silkiness and sheen of the coat and helps to heal dry, cracked paws. Flax oil can be used in conjunction with Solid Gold seameal, for immune related problems. The essential fatty acids found in flax oil are components of nerve cells and cell membranes. Flax oil is also one of the best known sources of lignans, which are compounds that are thought to have powerful anti cancer, antifungal and antiviral properties. Our Solid Gold Flax Seed Oil contains a natural, patented rosemary based antioxidant formula to extend the shelf life of this product without the use of artificial, chemical preservatives. Our flax oil is good for up to one year without the need for refrigeration, if stored at room temperature. However, refrigeration of the product (particularly after opening) will slow the development of peroxides (which cause rancidity) even further. Available in 12 oz, 1 quart and 1 gallon bottles.
