Hemp seed oil

Hemp seed oil is cold-pressed vegan oil that contains a large amount of omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids. Poly-unsaturated fate make up to 90 % of total fats (in comparison with 10 % total found in olive oil). Hemp seed oil is a supreme oil due to the gammalinolenic acid (GLA 4 %) and stearidonic acid (SDA 2 %) which are especially important to the human system.

USAGE

Hemp seed oil can be enjoyed as is. It is suited to salads, salad dressing, marinades, dips or spreads. It fits perfectly with several everyday foods, when added after they have been heated, such as potato, rice and pasta dishes. In a sound proportion the oil gives a hint of mild hemp taste and aroma without too much domination.

Hemp oil is not recommended to be heated to more than 160 degrees Celcius, since at that point trans-fats start to form.

STORING
Hemp seed oil contains essential fatty acids and should therefore be stored in cool temperature below 8°C, hidden from light.

Hemp seed oil can be used for treating your skin and hair.

Recommended daily dosage: 1–4 tbsp


NUTRITIONAL CONTENT

OMEGA-3 AND OMEGA-6 IN IDEAL BALANCE
The only oil that naturally contains the omega-3 (alphalinolenic acid ALA 22 %) and omega-6 (linolenic acid, LA 56 %) in an ideal balance of 1:3. One spoonful of hemp seed oil provides the recommended daily intake (2 g) of omega-3 alphalinolenic acid (ALA). In correct balance the fatty acids work towards the benefit of your system. Most foods contain too much omega-6 (i.e. omega-3:omega-6 ratio 1:14), which is transformed to bodily fat. Excess omega-3 fatty acids are automatically removed by your system.
