Extracted plant lipid, comprising fatty acids in an esterified form, the fatty acids comprising oleic acid, palmitic acid, ω6 fatty acids comprising linoleic acid (LA), ω3 fatty acids comprising α-linolenic acid (ALA) and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and optionally one or more of stearidonic acid (SDA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA), wherein the level of palmitic acid in the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid is between 2% and 16%, and wherein the level of myristic acid (C14:0) in the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid, if present, is less than 1%, and wherein the level of DPA in the total fatty acid content of the extracted lipid is between 7% and 35%.
