Rich in essential fatty acids of the omega 3 type, camelina oil contributes to the maintenance of normal cholesterol levels thanks to a daily consumption of 2 g (= 6 ml/) or about 1 teaspoon per day. It goes particularly well with salads, raw vegetables, aperitif sauces and cottage cheese dishes.

Finally, it is used as a tutor for lentils or peas. A multifaceted plant!"
