grinding flax seed omega 3 flax seed shelf life ?????

[Guest guest]

zMine goes right in the freezer. I'm not sure but the shelf life isn't

long until frozen or refrigerated. Maybe another member will know

for sure but I believe yours is probably too old now.

Some one gave me a 5 lb bag of flaxseed and I just shoved it in the

corner of my kitchen in it's bag/box. I had no idea what to do with

it, and since it was tucked out of the way, I had forgotten it until

this subject came up.

-I store mine in the frig.(recycled glass bottle) but the seed is on

the shelf at the health food store and not refrigerated . There are

no instructions on the pkg. about storage. Mine is organic bulk. The

oil must be refrigerated per instructions on the bottle . Best to

keep it in cool storage if you are not sure.
