I tried 4 brands of flaxseed oil. Here are the results.
I looked at the reviews for a lot of the flax oil products and they seemed to be all over the place, so I bit the bullet and ordered 4 of the better ranking products so I could compare them side by side. I bought NOW Cold-Pressed and Unrefined Certified Organic Flax Seed Oil Liquid, Nature’s Way Flax Oil USDA Organic, Puritan’s Pride Cold-Pressed Organic Flaxseed Oil, and Solgar Earth Source Organic Flaxseed Oil. They were all well before the expiration dates. Here is what I found: The NOW Flax Seed Oils was downright nasty. It was bitter and rancid tasting and was a huge disappointment. The Nature’s Way Flax Oil wasn’t much better. It was too much of a hassle to return them, so I tossed them both in the trash. The Puritan’s Pride Flaxseed Oil was better, but was still somewhat bitter. The Solgar Earth Source Organic Flaxseed Oil was the cream of the crop. It had a mild taste and was head and shoulders better than the rest. I hope this helps everyone who is looking for flaxseed oil.
