There is someone selling High Lignan flax Oil on Ebay in one gallon containers for a great price, but how fast can I use a gallon, really? I was wondering if it's okay to maybe put what I'll use pretty quickly in another bottle and freeze the rest. I asked in natural foods but didn't get a reply. maybe someone here knows? Thanks.- Re: Can you freeze flax oil? alikat

This is a reply to # 50,154I have not done this myself, but I have read that you can freeze FSO, however they advised to not keep in frozen stage longer than four months. Don't know if this really constitutes a savings for you in the long run.

This is a reply to # 50,155Hi:
I just ordered 3 bottles (32 ounces each. Seller suggestion is to freez it. I have 2in frezzer and one in the refrigerator. My naturophatic friend suggested me this web site:

It is a lot cheaper than what I was paying. After $30.00 purchase, you do not pay shipping. Check it out. I hope this helps.

This is a reply to # 50,157I wonder how fresh it is. That seller selling the gallons on Ebay sells it fresh apparently dated. I haven't bid yet but I emailed the seller and he seemed really helpful. He seemed very adamate that freshness is important and proud that they sell it so fresh. I think I might bid, since you can freeze it. Maybe I'll put a half gallon in my deep freeze, a quart in my regular freezer and the rest in the fridge.
Do any of you know a good source of dried stinging nettle? I can't find any for even close to a reasonable price. It's a weed!- Re: Can you freeze flax oil? Piedro

This is a reply to # 50,175The one that I bought, it has an expiration date of december 2003. It does look fresh to me. I followed their instructions to make sure it does not go rancid. I am very sure I will order before december.
Let us know if you buy it at e-bay and if you feel satisfy. The name of the seller would be a plus.
Thanks and
Salud

This is a reply to # 50,154Hi JeffreyM,
I would hesitate to buy such a quantity of flaxseed oil. In his book "Fats that Heal, Fats that Kill", Erasmus says that flaxseed oil can be kept frozen solid in a freezer "where it will remain fresh for over one year" (p.304). That is valid for unopenned bottles only.
BUT, he also says that if that oil was not pressed in a dark, oxygenless and cold place and if that conditions are not preserved during the delivery from the oil-maker to your table, freezing your oil will just slown the deteriorating process of an already doubtful quality oil.

MoreThis is a reply to # 50,154Flaxseed oil has got to be kept cool from the time it is sqweezed till the time you store it in your fridge, if it is not then you might as well use it to stain your deck.
