The question's already been asked but not answered. Is the product well refrigerated before shipping? Obviously, only the shipper can answer this.

I have not had any problem with freshness. It appears shipper was very careful in shipping this oil. I have ordered several times through Amazon and am very satisfied. Is there anything else the customer would like to know.

I have had mine shipped from Amazon and the Barlean'factory and I have never had a problem. I think you should check with Barleans on this matter. Www.barleans.com or 800 445 3529. Good luck. Saundra Davis.

The bottle I ordered was not shipped refrigerated. In fact, I never used it because of this.

I have not had any problems with it not being refrigerated. You may want to refrigerate after opening.

It's best to keep refrigerated to maintain its potency and efficacy. But I called the company and it can be shipped unrefrigerated for a short time but not during hot weather. Hope that helps.

Kara, We do not ship this product with cold packs due to the short time that it is in transit. However, once this package is opened it should absolutely be refrigerated. Thank You, Customer Service

Of what I have read, it is not necessary to refrigerate. However, I do to maintain the potency and freshness. The vendor or manufacturer should be contacted for a more definitive answer.

It is recommended by the manufacturer. If you order the item as a "fulfilled by Amazon" unfortunately the item will not be refrigerated while in-transit.

Hello!In order to maintain the potency of this product, we do require refrigeration once the item is received. However, we do not ship any products in cooled packaging. We have found that the delivery time is not long enough to damage the quality or potency. We hope this information is helpful. Take care. Swanson Health Products

Mine did not arrive refrigerated, I just refrigerated after opening. I've seen reference to the need to keep flax oil refrigerated at all times, but it is my understanding that even the big name brand, if asked, will say it is not necessary until opened.

It arrives in the same box--sometimes--with other Amazon products. Not-refrigerated. It works fine for me. Does it really require refrigeration--or just cool storage?

Refrigeration is only needed after opening this product to maintain its high potency. However, this product is not shipped refrigerated. Thank You,Customer Service I saw this answer to a customer's question. Where does it say that on the bottle that refrigeration is only needed after opening product?

my experience tells me they will be fine to ship to you...however after opening any unused product should be refrigerated for future use

Hello yes it does need to refrigerated after opening. It reads so on the bottle. I have it and think it is a great product. I will be purchasing again. Thank you!

From what I remember, the pressing date was a couple of months before delivery. I don't think the product (or any Amazon food product requiring refrigeration) is kept at a low enough temperature for the product in question.

I would hope so, but only the specific seller can answer. You should always keep it refrigerated. However, if not refrigerated for a couple days in transit...it's not the end of the world. I believe it would still be effective. It may be slightly less potent, but this stuff is so potent to begin with it will still work and be helpful. There are websites online who specify they ship in ice pack, so you could check into that.
