Hemp Seed Oil: The Green Gold Mine of Essential Fatty Acids
For thousands of years the Cannabis plant has been used for culinary and medicinal purposes throughout the world. Hemp has been used in China since 4,000 B.C.
Hemp has innumerable uses: rope, twine, cloth, paper, food, medicine, oil, and more. There has been a resurgence in interest in this beneficial plant which has only recently been allowed to flourish in North America, without the interference of politically repressive forces.
Industrial hemp, unlike its counterpart marijuana(Marijuana is a dry, shredded mix of flowers, stems, seeds and leaves of the hemp plant Cannabis sativa), is extremely low in THC. There is a microscopic amount that is legally allowed as a residue in hemp seed oil in Canada which is 10 p.p.m.(parts per million)(u/g). This minuscule amount has no psychoactive effect.
When the seed of the hemp plant are cold-pressed, it yields an oil that has a delicious and remarkable sweet nutty taste that is appreciated by both gourmet and health minded folks alike.
Not only does hemp seed oil taste good, but it is a green gold-mine of the health enhancing omega 3 and omega 6 essential fatty acids (LA, LNA) and GLA.
