Hemp oil or hempseed oil is obtained by pressing hemp seeds and has many benefits. With the help of saponification it is able to exfoliate deep into our skin and lubricate the surfaces and it does this without clogging our pores. It contains beneficial amount of natural antioxidants. Hemp oil prevents moisture loss, evens out skin tone and helps prevent premature aging.
Adding hemp oil to your diet is also very beneficial. Cold pressed, unrefined hemp oil is dark green to clear light green in color, with a nutty flavor; the darker in color, the grassier the flavor. In common with other culinary oils, hemp oil provides 9 kcal/g. But unlike most culinary oils is very low in saturated fatty acids. Because it is low in saturated fats it can easily oxidize and turn rancid within a short period of time when not stored properly; i.e., in a cool/cold, dark place, preferably in a dark glass bottle. Hemp oil can be frozen for longer periods of storage time. Hemp oil has a relatively low smoke point and is not suitable for frying and is better used in smoothies, salads, vegetables and pasta dishes. To conserve the essential fatty acids, it is suggested to prepare it as raw as possible.
Hemp oil contains the ideal 3:1 omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. Unlike flax, hemp has valuable Super Omega-3 (SDA) and Super Omega-6 (GLA), which can help the body metabolize fat. Hemp oil is also rich in protein and fiber along with all 20 amino acids (including the 9 essential).
