Flaxseed oil (ALA)

Also called flaxseed oil, flax oil, linseed oil, flaxseed.

The best price per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) and per month, form by form, across 6 UK retailers, and where to buy it cheapest. A unit for comparing, not advice.

Comparing flaxseed oil (ALA)

We count the ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) a label states per serving, whatever the pack size or the serving size, so every product sits on one scale. Products that combine flaxseed oil (ALA) with other ingredients are listed separately, because their price buys more than ALA (alpha-linolenic acid). 1 g is our unit for comparing prices, not a dose to take: the label’s directions and a pharmacist decide that.

How we work out these prices

We count ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) — the components stated on the label — not the weight of the oil. A 1,000 mg capsule of oil can contain very different amounts of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid). Products that state only the oil weight are left out until the content is confirmed.

Where can I buy flaxseed oil (ALA) cheapest in the UK?

On 20 October 2026, the cheapest flaxseed oil (ALA) per dose from a UK seller was Flax Seed Oil 1000mg at ZipVit (10p per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), £3.00 a month). Then Flax Seed Oil 1000mg at ZipVit (17p per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), £5.00 a month) and Flaxseed Oil Softgels at WeightWorld (18p per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), £5.45 a month). That is by price per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), across 6 UK retailers and 7 products, with every price checked daily; the table above shows the working for each.

What is the best price per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid) of flaxseed oil (ALA) today?

10p per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), for Flax Seed Oil 1000mg at ZipVit (10p per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), £3.00 a month), on 20 October 2026. The dearest of the 7 products we price is £3.33 per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), and the middle one is 19p.

How much does flaxseed oil (ALA) cost per month?

At one 1 g dose a day, the cheapest works out at £3.00 a month, for Flax Seed Oil 1000mg at ZipVit, on 20 October 2026. Across the 7 products we price it runs from £3.00 to £99.95 a month. A month is 30 days, and the figure follows the dose you enter in the table.

How long does a pack of flaxseed oil (ALA) last?

At one 1 g dose a day, the packs we price last from 6 days to 6 months; the middle one lasts 2 months. Each row says how long its pack lasts at the dose you enter.

What does “per 1 g ALA (alpha-linolenic acid)” mean?

It is the unit we use to put every product on the same scale: the price of 1 g of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), whatever the pack size or serving size. It is a comparison unit, not a recommendation of how much to take. Use the “Your daily dose” box to see costs at the amount you actually take.

Why is a product I have seen in the shops missing?

If a retailer’s listing does not let us confirm the amount per serving, the pack size or the form, we do not guess and we do not show the product. It appears once its label has been read and confirmed.

How up to date are the prices?

Prices on this page were last checked on 20 October 2026. Every table shows the date its prices were checked. Always confirm the price on the retailer’s site before buying.

Do retailers pay to appear higher?

No. We earn a commission when you buy through our links, but the order is set only by price per dose. No retailer or brand can pay for position.
