Also, if you're going to buy a brand of flax oil other than Spectrum Naturals, contact the company to ascertain whether they cold pasteurize the oil. If they don't and you're highly sensitive, you may react to the tiny mold spores or parasites that may be present in oil that hasn't been cold pasteurized.
Can someone tell me what "cold pasterized" means. A quick Internet search gave conflicting results. Some hits said that it was a synonym for "irradiated", while some appeared to differentiate the 2.

I have been told that cold pasteurization of health-promoting products is typically done with UV light or carbon dioxide.

Also, that Spectrum Natural has become a division of another company, and apparently no longer cold-pasteurizes their flax oil.

Does anyone know of another brand of flax oil (or other healthy oils) which DOES cold-pasteurize their oils?

Thank you.
