I'm going to try the flaxseed oil from Pureflax for Bea, Row. I've posted about it on another thread.

Because it's cold-pressed it retains the nutrients from the seed, is high in Omega 3, and has anti-inflammatory properties for joints.

Some people feed vegetable oil, which puts condition on, but because the oil is boiled out of the seed much of the nutrient content is gone.

Cold-pressed is more expensive because it only renders 40% of the total oil content of the seed. Hot extracted oil is cheaper because all the oil is taken from the seed. I suppose it's a case of you get what you pay for....
