What is Linseed Oil?

Why oil — and why this one

Fresh grass is naturally rich in omega 3; grain and most hard feed bring mainly omega 6. So the more a horse's life revolves around the stable and the bucket, the further the ration's fat profile drifts from the one he evolved eating. Linseed oil is the everyday oil that leans the other way — roughly four parts omega 3 to one of omega 6, the closest match to fresh pasture among common feed oils. A daily glug helps keep the whole ration balanced, the way grass intended.

Condition, the quiet way

Oil is the most calorie-dense thing you can put in a bucket, and it carries those calories with virtually no starch or sugar. That is why linseed oil is the traditional choice for helping maintain condition and coat — for the poor doer, the horse wintering out, or simply the coat you'd like gleaming a little deeper by show season.

Cold-pressed, because omega 3 is fragile

There are cheaper ways to get oil out of a seed — heat and solvents extract more, but they are hard on the delicate omega-3 fats that are the whole point of feeding linseed. Cold pressing takes less from the seed and keeps those fats intact. Ours is 100% pure cold-pressed linseed oil: one ingredient, nothing to read twice. It is also why we'd choose the oil over boiling linseed at home — all of the omegas, none of the saucepan.

What it does

Tap any benefit for the detail.

Coat and skin are where good feeding shows first. A daily measure of omega 3-rich oil helps maintain a glossy coat and healthy skin — the show-prep secret that works from the bucket, not the spray bottle.

Pure oil means slow-release calories with virtually no starch or sugar — a simple way to help maintain condition through winter, hard work or a fussy patch, without adding another scoop of cereal.

Most vegetable oils are omega-6-heavy. Linseed is the exception: around four parts omega 3 to one of omega 6, the nearest everyday match to the fresh pasture horses evolved eating. A sensible addition to any stabled or hard-fed horse's ration.

Horses take to it readily. Pour over the usual feed, start small and build up — no soaking, no boiling, no mess.

Buying linseed oil? Read any label like a nutritionist

You can buy linseed oil from a dozen places — including from us. Wherever it comes from, these four checks sort the good bottles from the rest:

1. How was it pressed?

Cold-pressed keeps the fragile omega 3s intact; heat and solvent extraction are cheaper and harsher. If the label doesn't say, ask.

2. Is it 100% linseed?

Some 'coat oils' are blends built on cheaper omega-6-heavy oils with a splash of linseed for the front label. One ingredient is the honest answer.

3. Fresh and well kept?

Omega 3s degrade with age, light and heat. Look for sensible dating, and store the bottle sealed, cool and out of the sun.

4. Price per litre, not per bottle.

Bottles come in every size — divide before you compare.
