Hemp oil is a superior source of essential fatty acids for human health. Hemp oil has been called "Nature's Most Perfectly Balanced Oil." It contains 81% of polyunsaturated Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) which are lacking or deficient in almost all diets.

The proportion of EFAs in hemp matches the ratios that had been previously determined by nutritionists to be most beneficial to human nutrition. Hemp seed oil contains omega-6 and omega-3 EFAs in an ideal long-term ratio of three to one. It also provides the derivative gamma linolenic acid (GLA). Its content of GLA makes it unique among edible seed oils. No other common oil seed contains GLA.

Some clinicians and preliminary research suggest that GLA may be useful for the following purposes:

Diabetes, Eye Disease, Osteoporosis, Menopausal Symptoms, Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS), Eczema, Allergies, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Alcoholism, Cancer, Weight Loss, High Blood Pressure and Heart Disease, Ulcers. (For details on GLAs actions on each of these conditions see University of Maryland Medical Center website at: http://www.umm.edu/altmed/ConsSupplements/GammaLinolenicAcidGLAcs.html)

That being said, isn’t it amazing that HEMP FOOD IS ILLEGAL IN AUSTRALIA! Australia is the ONLY WESTERN COUNTRY IN THE WORLD WHERE THIS HIGHLY NUTRITIOUS “Nutriceutical” is still banned. Even the USA—where hemp cultivation is still against the law--allows consumers the numerous benefits of hemp oil.

Hemp oil has a delicate nutty flavour and can be used for salad dressings, dips and spreads. Hemp oil, like all oils high in polyunsaturated fats, is unsuitable for main cooking uses as it should not be used for frying or baking, but it may be added to cooked foods after cooking.

Hemp oil has been called "Nature's Most Perfectly Balanced Oil." It contains 81% of the hard to find polyunsaturated Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). EFA’s are also known as “The Good Cholesterol”. Aside from their unmatched nutritional value, these oils have the ability to enter directly into the lipid layers of dry skin cells and replenish the oils missing due to sun exposure, poor nutrition or other abuse.

The EFAs, vitamins and enzymes are easily absorbed by the skin and contribute moisturizing qualities to cosmetics and soap. Saturated oils, on the other hand, only form a temporary barrier on the skin that slows transpiration from the body but does nothing for the skin cells themselves. Dermatologists claim that EFAs replenish dry skin, preventing cell loss and causing younger looking skin. Hemp seed oil has been used to soothe and heal dry skin and minor burns. Consequently, many companies produce beauty lotions, creams, suntan lotions, shaving creams and soaps from hemp oil.
