Hemp Seed:
Hemp is one of our oldest and most versatile plants and has been documented as far back as the 28th century BC. Cannabis sativa, which is the Latin term for "useful hemp" has made a comeback in the food and textile industries, and Canada is leading the way.
Hemp is an exceptionally hardy plant that grows well in our climate. It is grown in Canada both conventionally and organically. It can be grown free of herbicides and pesticides because it is so naturally resistant to pests. For the same reason, genetically engineering hemp is not considered.
Once harvested, the seeds are thoroughly cleaned and should be cold pressed in the absence of light and oxygen, preserving the freshness of the oil.
Read the label of any oil product you buy to make sure! Canadian hemp seed oil is produced with only the freshest viable grain possible. Nothing should be steam-sterilized or treated with radiation. The golden rule is "less is more." Less light, less heat, less processing!
Nutrition experts generally recommend that for EFAs to do their job effectively and provide optimal cell function, daily requirements must range from 7 to 11 gm of linoleic acid and from 2 to 3.5 gm of alpha linolenic acid. This can be obtained from one tablespoon of hemp seed oil. However, individuals who consume a diet high in saturated or trans fats will require more, as will people who are overweight or under a great deal of stress.
