Your concerns are valid.? I had a warehousing
business in Dallas.? The warehouse gets hot but nothing compared to the NON
INSULATED,?SEALED metal trailer the product is shipped in.?A day or
two of this type heat will compromise many products.?Some companies
load?trailers and move them?to an area where a trucker will pick
them?up?later.???After making the trip to the
destination the?trailer may then be dropped at a yard to be unloaded
later.? The product?has the possibility of?staying in the trailer
a very long time.
?
Many products are moved
on?REFRIGERATED?trailers.??I don't understand why Barlean's
does not use them.??

The Barlean's oil has the dates on the bottles on
which it was processed, so you can easily tell if it is fresh.
?
As to getting your oil delivered unrefrigerated
from Barleans, sorry to inform you?the health food stores do also.?
The oil is shipped by trucks that are NOT refrigerated.? I talked to
Barleans about that and they assured me that the refrigeration is mainly
necessary AFTER the bottle is originally opened.? With the oil they ship
being so fresh, immediate refrigeration isn't necessary after
bottling.
?
My concern now only revolves around shipments
here to Texas during the summer.?? We sometimes have weeks when the
daytime temperatures are above 100 degrees and, unlike elsewhere, it doesn't
cool down that much at night.? Those warehouses of the shippers aren't
air conditioned, so if the?oil?isn't delivered immediately,
it?may have seen 24 hours at 100+ degrees.? However, once again, the
same thing holds true for the oil bought in the health food stores.? The
oil is only refrigerated after delivery to the stores.? I usually buy in smaller quantities, 2 qts. per order,
during the summer to counter the possibilities of that risk.

Please phone Barleans and ask these questions
about the flaxseed oil..I know they tell us that they are sending out fresh
to us..but again I wonder how long it has been sitting before the postman or
ups gets it to us..and if they keep it cold, or the store house is much to
warm. Some of our stores around here carry the Barlean products, and most of
the time it is refrigerated when we pick it up from them. If we send by
mail, I have no idea what I'm getting. But Leah phone then early and also
write them an email..then let us al know what their answer will be. If you
can't get through to them I will see what I can do Monday for you in getting
an answer.Chances are someone else on this list will have an logical answer
for you already.
