Making Process
1. Locally Grown
Flaxseeds are grown locally at our regenerative farm and partner farms which practice traditional and natural agriculture. This helps us monitor the quality and purity of the final product.
2. Seed Selection
Flaxseed (alsi) is threshed manually and harvested to get high-quality seeds that are graded based on their oil content to ensure they contribute to the rich flavour and nutritional content of the oil.
3. Cleaning and Sorting
After harvesting, the seeds undergo a thorough cleaning process to remove any impurities, dirt or debris.
4. Cold Pressing Process
The hallmark of Advait Living's flaxseed oil lies in the cold pressing method. Seeds are manually pressed in a cold press machine at very low rpm to obtain the oil.
No toxic heat or chemical solvents are added and no external heat is applied. No chemical processing of any kind is deployed at any stage.
This ensures the natural flavour and nutritional properties of the flaxseed oil remain intact.
5. Naturally Sedimented
Following the cold pressing, the raw and unrefined flaxseed oil is allowed to naturally sediment. This step allows any impurities or particles to settle at the bottom.
6. Cold-filtration
After the sedimentation period, the oil undergoes a careful filtration process using a cheesecloth. This step removes any remaining particles or sediment, leaving behind a clear and pure flaxseed oil.
7. Packaging
The final product, now a fresh and aromatic virgin flaxseed oil, is elegantly packaged in glass bottles. The choice of glass ensures that the oil remains uncontaminated by external factors and retains its pristine quality until it reaches the consumer.
Ingredients
100% farm fresh flaxseeds (alsi)

We encourage you to reuse or return our packaging, reinforcing our dedication to a greener, healthier planet.
How To Use?
Flaxseed Oil Uses in Ayurveda
Flaxseed oil has been used in Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, for its numerous health benefits and therapeutic properties. Ayurveda, with its roots stretching back thousands of years, offers a holistic approach to health, focusing on balancing the body, mind, and spirit.
Here's how flaxseed oil is utilized in Ayurveda and the various benefits it provides:
1. Mental and Physical Endurance:
Ayurveda considers flaxseed oil a powerful remedy to combat fatigue and slow down the aging process. It's believed to enhance both mental and physical endurance by rejuvenating the body and supporting overall vitality.
2. Skin Health and Elasticity:
Flaxseed oil has Madhura (sweet), Picchaila (lubricous), Balya (strengthening), Grahi (moisture-holding), Tvagdoshahrit (blemish-removing), and Vranahrit (wound-healing) properties in Ayurveda.
These qualities make it useful for treating skin issues like dryness, lack of elasticity, blemishes, and even minor wounds. It's also used in cases of eczema and psoriasis to soothe and heal the skin.
3. Vata Dosha Disorders:
Ayurveda classifies flaxseed oil as an excellent remedy for balancing Vata dosha, which governs movement and is often linked to dryness and other disorders related to undernourishment and lack of vitality. Regular use of flaxseed oil helps in restoring balance and nourishment to the skin and body.
4. Anti-inflammatory and Wound Healing:
Flaxseed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, including omega-3 (α-linolenic acid) and omega-6 (linoleic acid), which regulate prostaglandin synthesis and support the wound healing process.
This anti-inflammatory effect is valuable in Ayurveda for treating various conditions like gastrointestinal disorders, respiratory issues, and even joint and muscle pain.
5. Ayurvedic Preparations with Flaxseed Oil:
Flaxseed oil is often incorporated into Ayurvedic formulations to address a range of health concerns. These include:
- Flaxseed Tea: Used to alleviate respiratory issues such as asthma, bronchitis, and cough.
- Flaxseed Drink: Effective for relieving constipation and aiding digestion.
- Flaxseed Flour: When mixed with honey, it can help treat gastrointestinal issues, strengthen the nervous system, and support memory and concentration.
- Topical Applications: Flaxseed oil is used in ointments and compresses for external wounds, burns, and skin irritations.
6. Flaxseed Oil in Ancient Texts:
Ancient Ayurvedic texts like the Charaka Samhita and Sushrut Samhita mention flaxseed oil for its healing properties. These texts highlight its role in traditional medicine for addressing abdominal pain and respiratory issues and even its use in anti-tumoral treatments.
The above information is not medical advice. Please consult your doctor before incorporating flaxseed oil to treat any chronic disorders.

Advait Living Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil
Experience absolute purity and joy with Advait Living's Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil (Edible-Grade)
Why is Advait Living's Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil different?
Advait Living’s Cold Pressed Flaxseed Oil stands as a pinnacle of purity and authenticity in the realm of natural wellness. Made from traditional cold pressed methods, our Flaxseed oil ensures that every drop is a testament to ancient wisdom and slow living. Flaxseeds are pressed slowly at low rpm and below 50 degrees Celsius to ensure the oil retains all its natural goodness without the production of any harmful by-products. Free from heat solvents, chemical processing, and additives, it embraces a natural, pure and unrefined form. It is well recognized for its health benefits attributed to its unique chemical composition presenting one of the richest sources of polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids (ALA) from plant sources. Interestingly, ALA in flaxseed oil has greater bioavailability than in milled seed, or even whole seed, hence flaxseed oil is gaining popularity for those looking to consume a highly bioavailable omega-3.
Cold Pressed & Hexane-Free Flaxseed Oil may also be known as
- Raw or unrefined flaxseed oil
- Cold pressed flaxseed oil
- Alsi ka tel
- Edible flaxseed oil
Key Features of Advait Living's Virgin Flaxseed Oil
Pure and Authentic: Advait Living's Flaxseed is 100% ‘raw, unrefined and cold pressed’ Flaxseed oil. It is made using the highest quality of edible flaxseeds (or alsi ke beej) and may also be referred to as ‘virgin’ mainly because it is ‘single pressed’ without repeated pressing of the seeds for extraction of additional oil. This makes it one of the highest-quality oil and is often ranked as a “Grade A” oil. No chemical processing of any kind is done. Zero preservatives, additives or blending is done to get 100% pure and edible Flaxseed oil.
Cold Pressed Extraction Process: Advait Living's Flaxseed oil is obtained using traditional methods of cold pressing. Fresh flaxseeds (alsi ke beej) are mechanically pressed in a cold pressed machine at low rpm below 50 degrees Celsius without the use of any toxic heat or chemical solvents and without any external heat application, making this oil ‘cold pressed’ and packed with nutritional properties.
Hexane-Free Flaxseed Oil: Commercially produced refined oils are extracted using heat solvents such as ‘Hexane gas’, a chemical solvent derived fromp etroleum. The use of hexane gas and similar solvents increases the yield of oil, making it more cost-effective. However, such extraction methods make the initial oil non-edible and reduce its quality. Such oils require extensive refining and chemical cleaning before they are made available in the market. Advait Living's hexane-free Flaxseed oil is obtained without the use of hexane or any toxic heat solvent, making it 100% safe, pure and packed with higher nutrition.
Small Batch Production: Our flaxseed oil is extracted only after you place an order and hence you can be assured of its freshness and availability of its nutrients. Store the flaxseed oil in the fridge for better shelf life and best results.
Flaxseed Oil Nutrition: Flaxseed has been used for centuries for medical purposes such as abdominal pain, urinary tract infection, inflammation, respiratory disorders, and constipation. It is an abundant source of alpha-linolenic acid (omega 3) and active bio-compounds such as phenolic compounds, tocopherol and phytosterols that have many health benefits.
Flaxseed oil fatty acid composition:
- Alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3): 55-65%
- Linoleic acid (omega 6): 10-15%
- Oleic acid (omega 9): 10-12%
- Stearic acid (Saturated Fatty Acid): 5-7%
- Palmitic acid (Saturated Fatty Acid): 3-5%
Omega 3 in Flaxseed Oil: Omega 3 & omega 6 are ‘essential fatty acids’ that have important benefits for the heart, brain, and metabolism. ‘Essential’ means that our body doesn’t produce them on its own, rather it needs these essential fatty acids from external dietary sources. Omega 6 is abundant in our diets today whereas consumption of omega-3 has considerably reduced. It is believed that older civilizations such as hunter-gatherers mostly ate land animals and consumed omega 6:omega 3 at ratios of 2:1 to 4:1, and people who lived near the sea (and ate fish and other seafood) consumed it in a ratio of 1:4. Even pre-industrial populations ate a diet with ratios that ranged in between the above. However, diets in the modern world have changed dramatically. Today, consumption of omega 6 is far higher than omega 3 and the ratio can range between 20:1 to 50:1.
Omega 6 is crucial for the body and provides energy, however, a diet rich in Omega 6 but poor in omega 3 promotes the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. High levels of Omega 6 are associated with chronic inflammation and because inflammation is at the base of many chronic diseases, dietary intake of omega-3 fatty acids (a natural anti-inflammatory) plays a crucial role in curbing chronic diseases.
Flaxseed oil is one of the richest plant sources of the omega 3 fatty acid (αlpha-linolenic acid- ALA). It is estimated that the body utilizes 10%–15% of the ALA to convert it into eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) which are important for proper development, including neuronal, retinal, and immune function. EPA and DHA may also affect many aspects of cardiovascular function including inflammation, peripheral artery disease, major coronary events, and anticoagulation. A tablespoon (5-7gms) of flaxseed oil can provide about 700-900 milligrams (mg) of EPA and DHA equivalent to 2-3 capsules of 300mg fish oil.
Health Benefits of Edible Flaxseed Oil: Edible Flaxseed oil (alsi ka tel) is known for its medicinal properties and has been used in ancient Ayurveda and ancient Greek and other civilizations for centuries to treat various body ailments. Below are some of the health benefits of organic Flaxseed oil:
- Potent source of Omega 3 essential fatty acids, particularly ALA
- It can improve oxidative stress, and reduced the abnormalities of lipid and inflammation
- May inhibition growth ability of many kinds of cancers, such as colon cancer, mammary tumor and breast cancer
- Helps decrease the arsenic accumulation and cardiac structural alterations
- In Ayurveda, flaxseed oil has been used in preparation of wound-healing remedies
- May help balance skin PH levels and improve skin elasticity
- May help fight of skin dryness, undernourishment, lack of luster/glow
- Natural laxative and aid bowel movements, and may also act as an antidiarrheal agent
- May support kidney and liver health
- ALA in flaxseed oil may have beneficial effects on bone metabolism and can be a beneficial treatment of osteoporosis
- May help reduce levels of VLDL-cholesterol and serum triglycerides, and increase insulin sensitivity
- May support in the treatment of diabetes. Research suggest that flaxseed reduces the levels of fasting blood glucose, blood lipid and glycated haemoglobin
