It is organic and what differes with it compared to other brands is that it is " Cold " expeller pressed. This means that they do not allow the oil to heat when pressing it. It is considered " raw. " According to the literature, a " maintenance dose " is considered to be 3 1/2 - 4 tbls per day. I haven't been taking it long enough to see weight loss results, but those that I have talked to where I have actually noted their success was at least this amount per day. They cook with it, snack on it and include in any protein shake and/or smoothies that they may have during the day. Keep it up! But increase the amount slowly. And even with the brand you are using, you should still see results. If not then try another brand. Quote
