Cold-Pressed Oils Containing Linoleic Acid
Keep in mind, when you source cold-pressed oils to put emphasis on how fresh the oils actually is. The “best before date” does not indicate if the oil is fresh or not! If you are in doubt, contact the oil mill directly. Ostro Organics online purchases are always guaranteed the freshest oils fresh off the press, shipping oils within days after pressing. When you’re at a store and can’t find the contact details of the oil mill on the label do your research. I highly recommend you looking for local oil-mills in your area. Look for unrefined, cold-pressed and non-filtered oils. The shelve life of these cold-pressed oils is much shorter, the nutritional values are however much higher! It’s worth the extra cost in the long run.
Here is a list of high Linoleic Oils that we press fresh at Ostro Organics Oil Mill:
- Sunflower oil
- Sesame oil
- Pumpkin seed oil
- Almond oil
- Hemp seed oil
- Poppy seed oil
- Walnut oil (also high in omega–3 fatty acids)

Ostro Organics Cold-Pressed Sunflower Seed Oil is high linoleic. We also cold-press mid-oleic sunflower seed oil depending on customer demand. Especially restaurants prefer high- and mid-oleic as these oils can take a bit more temperature when cold-pressed.
Linolenic acid and linoleic acid are similarly named omega fatty acids that have different roles in human health and nutrition. Read our Blog on Linolenic acid VS Linoleic acid to find out more.

High Linoleic Sunflower Oil
Traditional sunflower oils have fallen into two categories, one high in oleic acid and the other high in linoleic acid. We’re going to first approach the oil that’s high in linoleic acid.
Linoleic acid is one of the essential fatty acids in the human diet, and linoleic varieties of sunflower oil contain nearly 70 percent polyunsaturated fat (linoleic acid). Another 20 percent is in monounsaturated fat (oleic acid), and the remaining 10 to 11 percent is saturated fat.
Linoleic sunflower oil is considered one of the least used types of sunflower oil, in comparison to high oleic oils.
It is now produced in very small volumes in North America, because of it’s limitations in fried and processed foods. It is, however, the traditional type of sunflower oil that’s been produced for many years.
Does the Linoleic Acid Content in Oils fluctuate?
Russia's Shevchenko Diet:
Over the last couple of months, I had several customers approach me for high linoleic sunflower oil. They are straight up interested in a very high quality of oil, rich in linoleic acid, unrefined and certified organic.
After talking to them, they told me about a Vodka-Sunflower Oil Method which I looked into. As this method or diet was invented by a Russian, I wasn’t able to find a lot of English papers on it, how ever here is what I found. In case you have any other sources let me know in the comment section below.
The Nicholas Shevchenko Methode
In short, this methode really is a thought through diet that suggest using a high quality vodka and oil as a panacea treatment for cancer. Together with a very stringent diet excluding salt, sugar, fruits and meats.
The sunflower oil ought to be cold pressed, unrefined and contain more than 60% linoleic acid. The Vodka contain min 40% vol. High emphasis on the quality of ingredients that you consume, this diet also cuts out a lot of foods. Here is a link to the suggested use.
Treatment of vodka with cold-pressed oil may strengthen immunity, favorably affect internal organs and tissue. It should be noted that even doctors sometimes admit that Shevchenko’s method can be useful. True, most often they associate this fact with the rejection of bad habits and the effect of a placebo . Therefore, resort to Shevchenko’s method only in extreme cases.
