Hemp seeds are the only natural source known of having the ideal ratio of Essential Fatty Acids required by the human body, which is roughly 3:1 of omega-6 to omega-3, the two most important EFAs.

Essential fatty acids are called “essential” because our body cannot manufacture them and therefore they must be part of our daily diet. EFAs are not used for energy or stored like other fats we eat. They are used as raw materials for the cell structure and as precursors for many of the body’s vital biochemicals, including hormones and prostaglandins.

We obtain every drop of our oil by slowly cold-pressing fresh hemp seeds. During each step of the process we take great care to protect the fragile EFAs that make the oil so beneficial for health.

Hemp seed protein powder is an ideal vegetable protein source with around 50% complete, gluten free protein.

Proteins are considered complete when they contain all the amino acids in sufficient quantities to meet the needs of the human body. Hemp protein contains all 21 known amino acids, including the 8 essential amino acids, which the grown-up human body cannot manufacture itself.

65% of the total protein content in hemp seeds is the globular protein edestin, which is very much similar to the globulin in the human blood plasma. Edestin is easy to digest, easy to absorb and vital to maintaining a healthy immune system. Edestin also has the unique ability to stimulate the manufacture of antibodies.
