PAIR with Non- GMO camelina meal: The "false flax" and far superior to flax and copra meal. Camelina is unique. It's higher in ALA with a 2.4:1 ratio of omega 3s to omega 6s, making its shelf life far better than flaxseed. It's resistant to oxidative rancidity, which makes it highly stable because of its incredibly high vitamin E content of 100 ml.Essential fatty acids are necessary for skin and coat health. A deficiency of omega-3 fats can lead to overly sensitive, itchy and inflamed skin. Shifting the ratio of essential fats more to what a horse would naturally be consuming in the wild may help to normalize inflammation in the skin and support skin health. **This camelina is pure, high-omega, non-GMO, grown and harvested in northwestern Montana using sustainable and traceable agricultural methods. "We cold-press process our camelina seed into camelina oil and meal to ensure that all of the natural, healthy nutritional benefits of the camelina plant oil and meal are retained."
