Hempseed oil can help the body to metabolise fat, counteract aging, lower cholesterol, increase immune system strength and help prevent cardiovascular disease. Its natural, light and flavourful nature makes this oil a great addition to your diet as well.
Hempseed oil has over 80% polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and is an exceptionally rich source of the two essential fatty acids (EFAs) linoleic acid (18:2 omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (18:3 omega-3). The omega-6 to omega-3 ratio (n6/n3) in hempseed oil is normally between 2:1 and 3:1, which is considered to be optimal for human health.
