Linseed oil with amaranth 250 ml Eat Healthy - Di&Di

What the product is

Di&Di Eat Healthy Flaxseed Oil with Amaranth is a cold-pressed edible oil blend chosen mainly for its fatty acid profile. Flaxseed oil is one of the richest plant sources of alpha-linolenic acid, or ALA — an essential omega-3 fat that the body cannot make on its own and must get from food.

Key components

The main value of this flaxseed oil lies in its naturally high ALA content, around 55–60% of total fatty acids. ALA becomes part of cell membranes and helps keep them flexible. It also has an authorised EU health claim: ALA contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels when consumed in sufficient amount. Alongside omega-3, flaxseed oil also provides smaller amounts of other unsaturated fats:

• Omega-6 — present in smaller amounts
• Omega-9 — present in smaller amounts

Amaranth seed oil adds another interesting aspect to the composition. It naturally contains:

• Squalene — a lipid-like compound found in the body and in some plant oils
• Tocotrienols — belong to the vitamin E family and act as antioxidants, helping protect oils and body tissues from oxidative stress

This does not turn the product into a medicine, but it does make the blend more nutritionally nuanced than plain flax oil alone.

When people choose it

People often add this type of oil to meals when they want more plant omega-3 without using fish-based products. This food oil suits people who want to enrich cold meals with valuable fats in a simple way — for example, as part of a balanced menu with:

• Grains
• Vegetables
• Seeds
• Fermented foods

How to use it

Because flaxseed oil is delicate, it is not suitable for frying or baking: heat can damage its polyunsaturated fats and change the taste. Use it only cold, and keep the bottle refrigerated after opening so the oil stays fresh. Common cold uses include:

• Salads
• Smoothies
• Yoghurt
• Porridge

Important notes

If you are in any of the following situations, it is sensible to ask a healthcare professional whether this product fits your menu:

• Pregnant
• Breastfeeding
• Taking blood-thinning medication
• Planning major diet changes
