    Hi rr, you can try this site, even with postage it works out cheaper than our high st shops, all organic I believe, I hope this helps?

    A83 Flax Seed Oil 1000mg - A new product introduced due to the high concentration of Omega 3 fatty acids found in this product. Flax Seed is an excellent alternative to fish oils as the oil obtained from flax contains almost twice as much Omega 3 per gram than fish oils. RDD 1-2 per Day - 90 (size H) 4.95 Plus £1 p&p

    A83a is the bulk pack 360 for £16.95 which means you don't have to pay postage and packing either.

    I've always had good service from this company and no problems with the quality of their products.

    You should be aware that using brown linseed, whizzed in a blender, will probably be better as the seed rather than the oil contains lignans which add to the benefit. I buy 5kg of brown linseed at £5.35 You have to keep it in the fridge once ground but if you do a weeks supply at a time it's OK. Important not to heat the linseed as that lowers its nutrional value.

    Ted, how long does the 5 kg bag last and how do you take it in the raw form? Also where can I get the 5 Kg brown seed from. Thanks in advance.

    I buy linseed from Holland & Barratt and sprinkle it over my museli/cereal. Also great in home-made bread, biscuits, etc.

    If you want to go along the tablet route, I agree with Ted, zipvit.com are great ... good prices and speedy delivery.

    MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS
