The Benefits of Feeding Linseed Oil. For centuries horse owners have fed linseed (flaxseed) oil  for a glossier, easier to groom coat, stronger hooves, improved condition, fitness and performance - modern scientists and vets have proven its efficacy is due to Omega-3.  Dog owners have also noticed that dogs fed linseed oil have healthier coats with a championship sheen as well as helping alleviate arthritis and improving temperaments

    Omega-3 is essential for health of horses and dogs (and birds). Animals can't make omega-3 in their bodies, so like minerals and protien, they have to get it from food. Approximately 25% of every cell membrane is made from omega-3.  It is imortant that enough is consumed to balance other fats in food; only then can animals make the healthy cell membranes that ensure strong bones, muscles and ligaments and  healthy immune system.
    Cold-pressed Linseed Oil provides the right kind of omega-3 for your animals.  Omega-3 for feeding animals should always be fresh and pure to ensure quality.
    Linseed Oil Omega-3 is even more important in animals diets when cereals, soya or oils are fed. Omega-3 will help your animals cope with the physical and mental stresses
    of training and competition.  Horses are strictly vegetarian, so linseed oil is
    far more natural than cod-liver  for horses - it is also completely free of the pollutants associated with fish-based supplements. The ALA in linseed oil is the essential omega-3 fatty acid for dogs and Flax Farm Cold-pressed linseed oil is an exceptionally healthy way to feed it.
