FAQ

Why is cooked linseed better than raw linseed?

Raw linseed contains cyanogenic glycosides which can be harmful in large quantities. Cooking and micronising deactivates these compounds, making the product safe and significantly more digestible. It also improves the availability of carbohydrates and enhances palatability.

What does linseed do for horses?

Linseed is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which support coat condition, skin health, and joint function. It also provides high-quality protein to support topline and muscle development.

Is this suitable for horses with laminitis?

Linseed is naturally low in non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) and starch, making it generally suitable for laminitis-prone horses. However, always consult your vet or equine nutritionist before introducing any new supplement.

How much should I feed per day?

A typical starting amount is 100–200g per day for an average horse. Adjust based on body condition, workload, and overall diet composition.

Can I feed this alongside other supplements?

Yes — Cooked Linseed works well alongside balancers, vitamins, and other feed supplements. Be mindful of total fat intake if feeding alongside other oil-based products.
