Plant-based ALA omega-3 source
We rank Flaxseed Oil by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.
Flaxseed oil is a plant-based oil extracted from the seeds of the flax plant. It is primarily used as a source of ALA, which is short for alpha-linolenic acid, a type of omega-3 fatty acid (a healthy fat that the body cannot make on its own).
It is used by people who want a vegan or vegetarian alternative to fish oils to get their omega-3 intake. These fats are important for supporting general heart health and managing inflammation in the body.
The oil is produced by taking flaxseeds and pressing them using a mechanical press to squeeze the liquid oil out. This process is often done using a cold-press method, which means the seeds are not heated, as high temperatures can damage the delicate healthy fats.
This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because while the seeds are relatively easy to grow in large quantities, the cold-pressing process requires specific equipment to ensure the oil remains stable and high quality.
| Purpose | Typical studied dose | Evidence |
