HEMP OIL
Hemp oil comes from the hemp seed and it has been traditionally used in lubricants, paint, ink
manufacture, fuel and plastic products. It is also used in the production of skin care products, natural
soaps, shampoos and detergents. In recent years, hemp seed oil has been recognized as natures most
balanced oil for human nutrition with the perfect three to one Omega three to Omega six ratio required
by the human body. It is rapidly absorbed and easily digested.
To obtain hemp oil for use as a food, hemp seeds are cold pressed in an oxygen free environment. It
should then be bottled in a light-proof container, flushed with nitrogen and refrigerated to protect the
delicate oils from oxidization. This will ensure that your oil is as fresh as can possibly be.
Is one of the lowest in saturated fats, only eight percent of total oil volume.
Contains Gamma Linolenic acid, a rare oil that is highly beneficial for human growth and development.
Is best taken internally but you may also obtain the benefits from hemp seed oil by using it on your skin.
Has anti-aging properties and can be used with other oils, such as sweet almond and jojoba oils, to make
excellent massage oil.
Australian law prohibits the sale of hemp products as a food. Current legislation is not only out dated, it
has been held in place due to the lack of knowledge and fear that to legalize hemp foods would be
sending out a mixed message and would create policing issues. That was six years ago. However, in late
2009, an application was again submitted and will be decided on in October 2011. Lets us hope that the
politicians who make this decision are not afraid to help Australia become the last western country in
the world to allow hemp as a food.
Hemp is a plant that is a major source of confusion for many. While it's true that some species of hemp
are illegal due to the substance THC, which is a psychoactive molecule, not all of the species of Hemp
contain THC.
Hemp oil gained prominence with the health conscious of the world in the 1990s. For years people used
the oil until it was removed from the market because oil is made from the seeds of the cannabis plant.
The DEA tried to say that the oil was illegal, but in HIA vs. DEA it was determined that hemp based food
products, including Hemp oil were exempt from the Controlled Substances Act.
Today, Hemp oil returns to it's seat at the top of the world of nutrition and the cosmetic world. It is
important to note that there are a couple different types of Hemp oil. There is an expeller pressed
variety, which is a food type product. It is used in food and cosmetics. There is also a steam distilled
essential oil made from the hemp plant which is also used in cosmetics and aromatherapy practices.
Here we are talking about the expeller pressed food product.
Use of the Hemp plant began in China sometime around 2300B.C. According to Chinese beliefs, the plant
contains the prescription for immortality. The Chinese also used hemp oil to treat Malaria, menstrual
problems and fertility.
In the 10th century, the Indians began to use the oil to treat indigestion, and anorexia as well as external
wounds and infections, asthma, menstrual pain and more.
Until the beginning of this century, the plant fiber was used to make cloth, sails and ropes. However, in
the interest of being environmentally friendly, many companies are once again producing fabric from
Hemp fibers.
Hemp oil is rich with unsaturated fats and essential fatty acids. About 30-35% of the weight of the hemp
seeds is the oil, which is pressed out in the production of the oil. The oil contains the essential fatty acids
OMEGA 3 and OMEGA 6 at an optimal high rate, just like breast milk. The oil also contains protein,
essential vitamins and minerals, which makes it an ideal dietary supplement.
Essential fatty acids are the cornerstones of proper nutrition rehabilitation and healing the body from
disease. Even in the cosmetics industry, Hemp oil leads the way. Clinical studies have shown that Hemp
oil is particularly effective in healing severe skin problem such as atopic dermatitis all the way up to
burns.
Hemp oil strengthens the immune system, helps maintain a healthy cardiovascular system, and is
effective in helping the body fight a long list of conditions such as lowering "bad" cholesterol, raising
"good" cholesterol, lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of heart attack, as well as being anti-
inflammatory.
If you are a cancer sufferer and are undergoing chemotherapy, using Hemp oil is recommended at the
same time. It encourages healthy cell creation and reduces the damage to the body as a result of
treatment. The oil doesn't conflict with traditional medicinal treatments and is not a cure, but rather is
complimentary.
Cannabidiol (CBD) has been enjoying increasing amounts of attention as people learn more about its
incredible possibilities as a supplement. With so many articles and research studies being written about
CBD, you might think that this consumable is a recent discovery. It is true that many of the CBD
extraction and packaging methods use cutting-edge technologies but the use of CBD in its hemp oil form
goes back farther than most people realize.
In the 2010's the public began to see what a profound effect CBD oil could have treating a variety of life
threatening aliments, especially in children. A prime example of this is a young family from Missoula
Montana, using CBD oil to treat their 20 month old son, Cash Hyde, who had been diagnosed with brain
cancer in 2010. Hyde's condition was worsening and his tumor inoperable. After exhausting every
treatment option, including 30 rounds of intensive radiation, Ketamine, Methadone and Morphine
treatments, the Hyde family had hit their limit. Nothing had worked. In an effort to give his small child
some relief, his father did what was thought to be "crazy"at the time, and gave him a highly
concentrated cannabis extract, not knowing what else to do. After the first treatment, Hyde's State IV
brain tumor had shrunk. Although it was considered unorthodox, Mike Hyde was applauded by medical
professionals and even spoke with the press in hopes of shedding the light on how CBD oil is literally a
lifesaver. Cash Hyde lived for another two and a half years, passing away after the State of Montana
made a change in legislation that impaired the family from easily accessing the cannabis oil their son
needed.
Perhaps the most prolific case of CBD oil and it's success is the 2013 story that achieved national press.
Charolette Figi is a 3 year old Colorado girl who suffered 300 grand mal seizures every week. Like the
Hyde family, her parents thought they had tried everything, including a heavy regime of pharmaceutical
drugs and painful procedures that still did not ease her condition. Her parents had watched a
documentary of one of the first medical marijuana dispensaries in California centered around testing
their strains of CBD and other cannaboid content. The California center testing was one of the first
public assertions that cannabis was safe to ingest and use for a variety of medical purposes. CBD rich oil
was able to treat 99% of the young girls seizures, and CNN aired a 2013 special on marijuana and it
medicinal effects.
These are just a few specific instances that show how effective CBD oil can be, laying the groundwork for
CBD oil being recognized as a justifiable medicine for a variety of ailments. As a result, many states are
passing legislation rapidly allowing CBD oil to be used in numerous clinical studies as treatment plans.
Research continues to back up it legitimacy and programs are being funded globally to continue the
studies

CBD, also called Cannabidiol, is just one of 85 different chemical compounds in marijuana plants. CBD
Hemp Oil is derived from hemp, or cannabis grown with very little THC (often less than 0.3%). For the
sake of this article we will refer to marijuana as cannabis grown for its psychoactive effects, and hemp as
cannabis grown for its practical uses as a fiber. Marijuana is marketed for its THC content and hemp is
utilized for its CBD content.
THC is the psychoactive or intoxicating compound found in cannabis plants whereas, CBD oil is not
psychoactive or intoxicating and has shown strong signs of being an effective treatment for a variety of
diseases and mental health disorders.
Hemp oil is legal in all 50 states but the production of CBD Hemp Oil is not. Even though both come from
marijuana, hemp oil is derived from sterile cannabis seeds, which are legal under the Controlled
Substances Act. CBD Oil is derived from the plant's flowers which are not legal in some states. However,
this doesn't stop the import of CBD oil made from industrialized hemp grown legally, which is why
you're able to buy it legally on the internet.
You can find products containing hemp oil in the beauty section of your local retail store, but to get CBD
Oil you'll either need to be in a state where it's legal to produce or purchase an import.
CBD Oil has been shown to have surprisingly positive effects on a variety of diseases. Some of the
Cannabidiol health benefits are:
➢ Nausea treatment
➢ Lowered anxiety
➢ Pain relief
➢ Improved mood
➢ Lessening withdrawal symptoms
➢ Seizure reduction
➢ Stimulating appetite
CBD works by activating the body's serotonin (anti-depressant effect), vanilloid (pain relief), and
adenosine (anti-inflammatory effect) receptors. How quickly you start to feel the results from CBD Oil
depends on how it was ingested and your weight. Someone small who ingested the oil in spray form will
feel the effects much faster than a larger person ingesting CBD in capsule form.
CBD Hemp Oil can take on many different forms, including liquids, ointments, and sprays, and capsules.
Most oils and sprays are used by putting the substance under your tongue. Ointments are used on and
absorbed by the skin, and thirdly capsules are ingested. Those who don't like the taste of sprays or oils
can defer to capsules. Capsules are a very convenient way to consume Cannabidiol, however you don't
absorb as much CBD from a capsule as you do from an oil or spray put under your tongue.
CBD vape oil is the same as regular CBD Hemp Oil - it's just taken into the body in a different way. You
just fill your vape pen with Cannabidiol and presto, you've got yourself a vape with health benefits.
CBD Oil sold online are not as potent as those medically prescribed for serious diseases but they can
help with mood disorders, lower anxiety, and lessen pain caused by inflammation.
While not much research has been done yet on the side effects of CBD Oil, whether absorbed,
swallowed as a capsule or inhaled through a CBD vape pen, the most commonly side effects reported
are digestive issues, such as upset stomach and diarrhea, which are not very common.
Drug tests are looking for THC, not CBD, and because CBD doesn't produce any kind of high, employers
really have no reason to look for it in the first place. So CBD Oil does not show up on a drug test.
However, for this reason, make sure you purchase pure CBD oil with 0% THC.
No prescription required: Even though they are more potent than regular CBD Oils, most pure CBD Oils
do not require a prescription.
0% THC: If you're worried about using a cannabis extract because you don't want to experience
marijuana's psychoactive effects or fail a drug test, opt for pure CBD Oil. Containing no THC at all, it's the
safest choice.
Fewer side effects: Pure CBD Oils are less likely to cause nausea and fatigue.
Purchase Cautions: How do you know if you are getting quality CBD Hemp Oil?
Your first clue is usually price. If the price seems too cheap to be true, it probably is.
Always purchase from a reputable source. A company that is reputable will back their product and will
not risk selling misrepresented items.
Another thing to look for is the way that the product is marketed. If you see CBD Hemp Oil online that
claims to cure every ailment under the sun, it's also probably too good to be true.
The top products are made from organically grown hemp and have a CBD concentration over 20mg.
While the medicinal effects of Cannabidiol are great, keep your expectations of online brands realistic.
CBD oil is used in different ways to relieve the symptoms of different conditions.
Some CBD oil products can be mixed into different foods or drinks, taken from a pipette or dropper, or
are available as a thick paste to be massaged into the skin. CBD can also be purchased in capsule form.
Other products are provided as sprays that are meant to be administered under the tongue.
Here are a few recommended dosages, although these may vary between individuals based on other
factors, such as body weight, the concentration of the product, and the condition being treated.
Due to the lack of FDA regulation for CBD products, seek advice from a medical professional before
settling on any particular dosage.
All dosages relate to taking CBD oil by mouth. These can include:
Chronic pain: Take between 2.5 and 20 milligrams (mg) by mouth for no more than 25 days.
Epilepsy: Consume between 200 and 300 mg of CBD by mouth daily for up to 4.5 months.
Movement problems associated with Huntington's disease: Taking 10 mg every day for six weeks can
help ease movements.
Schizophrenia: Consume between 40 and 1,280 mg CBD by mouth daily for up to 4 weeks.
Glaucoma: One dose of between 20 and 40 mg applied under the tongue can help to relieve pressure in
the eye. However, caution is advised - doses greater than 40 mg might actually increase pressure.
As regulation in the U.S. increases, more exact doses and prescriptions will start to emerge.
After discussing dosage and risks with a doctor, and researching regional legal use, it is important to
compare different brands. There are a range of different CBD oils available to purchase online, with
different benefits and applications.
Hemp. Some people use its fibrous stalks to make ropes. And admittedly, looking to a plant from which
ropes are made might seem like a strange place to look for something that can help dieters succeed in
their weight-loss efforts. But amazingly, the hemp plant provides just that. Hemp seeds are filled with
oil, and cold-pressed hemp oil is in fact one of the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet, and as a
bonus, helps with suppressing appetite.
Hemp comes in various forms suitable for dietary consumption. For example, the seeds can be eaten
raw, ground into a meal called hemp protein, sprouted, turned into hemp milk (similar to soymilk), or
used as a tea.
Similar in many ways to flax seed, hemp seed contains high amounts of protein, and its oil is rich in
omega 3 essential fatty acids (EFAs). In fact, hemp contains about 20 percent highly digestible protein,
and omega 3 EFAs make up about 22 percent of its oil.
It's the omega 3s that give hemp its ability to suppress appetite. Recent research reported in the journal
Appetite showed that study volunteers who ate a dinner rich in omega 3s were significantly less hungry,
both afterward and even two hours later, than those whose dinners contained no omega 3s but were
otherwise virtually identical. Omega 3 oils, it turns out, somehow help regulate the brain's hunger signal
center.
Other research has shown that hemp's benefits extend beyond appetite suppression. Research has also
shown hemp to help relieve symptoms of eczema, and its omega 3s are known to help improve memory
and brain function.
When you're doing your level best to lose weight, finding natural ways to subdue your appetite gives
you a definite edge in your efforts. And one of the best, proven items to add to your appetite-
suppression arsenal is hemp...its seeds, oil, and protein.

Many people are very fond of using beauty products like body oils and lotions that are manufactured by
leading companies. But because these products are quite expensive, not all people are able to enjoy
them. But the good news for other people who want to try skin care products is that there are
alternatives that even provide better benefits. Hemp oil's benefits compared to other products are
better and more effective in achieving optimum health condition.
Hemp oil is produced after pressing hemp seeds. This oil is known to be rich in several nutrients needed
by the body; some of these are the Omega 6 and Omega 3, amino acids, and other essential fatty acids.
According to World Health Organization (WHO), these acids are needed by the body for optimal health.
Although the oil is believed to provide a lot of benefits, other people are still hesitant about it. Because
it contains tetrahydrocannabinol, people think it is not as healthy as it appears. But according to
companies that manufacture hemp oil, only the seed contains this element; therefore, these elements
are removed during the process of pressing the seeds to extract the oil.
In other countries, hemp seeds are not used to produce food, and are not recommended for human
consumption. However, they can be used to produce skin care or industrial products. For skin care
products made of hemp seeds, there are many positive benefits that can be expected.
Hemp oil has several properties that make it one of the best products when it comes to skin care:
People have different skin types, which is why it's very important to use a product that won't trigger
allergic reactions. Hemp oil is ideal for different types of skin.
People suffering from skin irritation, redness, rashes and other skin issues can safely use the oil as it
alleviates these symptoms. Also, people who have eczema, acne, psoriasis, and dermatitis can safely use
this oil. It's very safe for the skin.
It contains moisturizers.
Hemp oil contains essential fatty acids, which make it effective to act as a moisturizer. This could very
well help people who have oily and dry skin. Unlike the greasy feeling brought by other body oils or
lotions, hemp oil makes the skin moisturized all day without getting the pores clogged.
A lot of conditioners and shampoos today contain hemp oil. Since it contains a good amount of
conditioning nutrients, it's perfect for making the hair stronger and thicker.
Besides skin care benefits, the oil can also be used to reduce swelling and pain caused by osteoporosis
and arthritis. Furthermore, it helps in relieving premenstrual stress, absorbing calcium, and acts as an
ordinary sunblock.
For all of you who are still on the "Just Say No" bandwagon, you might believe that hemp seed oil, which
is derived from the seeds of the cannabis plant, is just another way for those dang hippies to get high.
However, while the flowers this controversial plant are capable of bringing about mild hallucinations and
making everything on FOX News seem hilarious, the seeds and the beneficial fatty oils that they contain,
will do no such thing. In fact, hemp seed oil is thought to be one of the most beneficial supplements a
person can take in order to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.
Once upon a time before politicians and business interests got involved, hemp was an important crop
with any industrial and medicinal uses. On the health front, the seeds of the hemp plant were found to
be an almost perfect food source, containing 80% of the essential fatty acids that our bodies need as
well as globule edestins which is a rare protein that is similar to globulin. Hemp oil is easily digestible
and contains pretty much all of the essential fatty acids that the body needs in order to stay functioning
properly. Modern Research studies have found that taking hemp oil on a regular basis can help repair a
damaged immune system and even reverse wasting making it an important natural supplement for both
cancer patients and people with AIDS
Increase vitality
Treat Tuberculosis
People with conditions caused by deficiency in LA (Omega 6) and LNA (Omega 3) can be treated by
taking hemp oil because it has those essential fatty acids (EFA) in balanced, ideal proportions.
Hemp seed oil has a low level of Stearic acid (18:0) which is beneficial for health because high levels of
Stearic acid form flow-impeding clots in blood vessels and work against the healing qualities of the
EFA's.
On the daily basis you can take 2-4 dessert spoons (up to 50 ml) per day. In the case of therapy you can
increase the dose up to 150 ml per day for approximately 7 days, then return to the regular daily
amount.
Hemp Seed Oil has a nutty flavor that most people find pleasant. It is an ideal additive to salad dressings,
dips, or cold pasta. It is not suitable for frying, since excess heat will greatly reduce many of its life giving
benefits. It can also be used externally to treat skin conditions such as eczema. You can find it many
health food stores.
Hemp oil is one of the few oils that is rich in Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Essential Fatty Acids are fats
that the body requires for healthy cells but cannot manufacture by itself. EFAs include Polyunsaturated
Fatty Acids (PUFAs), Omega-3, Omega-6, Omega-9, Linoleic Acid and Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA).
Although it is very important in skin care and maintenance, GLAs are rarely found in natural oils. Some
excellent sources are from the seeds of evening primrose, borage and hemp.
Research
In cosmetic testing, EFAs have been shown to play a preventive role in the skin aging process. The
outflow of moisture from the body is regulated by a barrier which the skin forms to protect itself from
the external environment. EFAs, particularly Omega-6 and GLA, preserve the "barrier function" of cell
membranes. Skin which is deficient in these nutrients allows more moisture loss and can show dryness
and loss of elasticity. PUFAs have also been shown to prevent skin dryness and to help restore damaged
skin to normal.
Omega 6 and Omega 3 EFA's are required more in our diet than any other vitamin, and yet our bodies
do not produce them naturally. These oils must be ingested in their pure form, as they can not be
metabolized from other food sources. These healing enzymes can be absorbed directly into the skin to
replenish missing oils, so they are ideally suited for many cosmetics and skin care products.
Hemp oil also provides an ample supply of carotene, phytosterols, and phospholipids, in addition to a
large number of minerals including: calcium, sulfur, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium. It is also a
good source of chlorophyll.
Due to its rich content of Essential Fatty Acids, hemp seed oil is a perfect choice for skin, hair & lip care.
Hemp Oil is the only oil of its kind that helps soothe skin irritation and dryness! If you suffer from:
➢ Eczema
➢ Psoriasis
➢ Skin cracking, scaling or sagging
➢ Chapped lips
➢ Dry hair
➢ Substantially improve your skin's natural appearance and elasticity
When combined with other naturally derived ingredients such as carrier oils, herbs and essential oils, it
offers an exceptional solution to many skin types and conditons. In addition, hemp helps to preserve
eco-systems that are subject to toxic chemically laden products on a daily basis.
Continuous use of skin-care products containing Omega-6 fatty acids can restore your skin's natural
glow and bring a healthy sheen to your hair and lips. Because hemp oil is an excellent source of Omega
fatty acids, adding it to your diet can substantially improve your skin's natural appearance and elasticity.
The result is healthy, moisturized and silky smooth skin! Who knew cooking oil could do all that!
Oils that contain concentrations of CBD are known as CBD oils. The concentration and uses of different
oils vary.
Cannabidiol oil is used for health purposes, but it is controversial. There is some confusion about what it
is and the effect it has on the human body.
Cannabidiol (CBD) may have some health benefits, but there may also be some risks. It is also not legal
in every state.
Is CBD marijuana?
CBD oil is a cannabinoid derived from the cannabis plant. Until recently, the most well-known compound
in cannabis was delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). This is the most active ingredient in marijuana.
Marijuana contains both THC and CBD, but the compounds have different effects. THC is well-known for
the mind-altering "high" it produces when broken down by heat and introduced into the body, such as
when smoking the plant or cooking it into foods.
Unlike THC, CBD is not psychoactive. This means that it does not change the state of mind of the person
who uses it. However, it does appear to produce significant changes in the body and has been found to
have medical benefits.
Most of the CBD used medicinally is found in the least processed form of the cannabis plant, known as
hemp.
Hemp and marijuana come from the same plant, cannabis sativa, but they are very different.
Over the years, marijuana farmers have selectively bred their plants to be very high in THC and other
compounds that interested them, either for a smell or an effect they had on the plant's flowers.
On the other hand, hemp farmers have not tended to modify the plant. It is these hemp plants that are
used to create CBD oil.
The human body produces certain cannabinoids on its own. It has two receptors for cannabinoids, called
CB1 receptors and CB2 receptors.
CB1 receptors are found all around the body, but many of them are in the brain.
The CB1 receptors in the brain deal with coordination and movement, pain, emotions and mood,
thinking, appetite, and memories, among others. THC attaches to these receptors.
CB2 receptors are more common in the immune system. They affect inflammation and pain.
It used to be thought that CBD acts on these CB2 receptors, but it appears now that CBD does not act on
either receptor directly. Instead, it seems to influence the body to use more of its own cannabinoids.
LEGALITY
Cannabis is legal for either medicinal or recreational use in some but not all states. Other states approve
CBD oil as a hemp product without approving the general use of medical marijuana.
Laws may differ between federal and state level, and current marijuana and CBD legislation in the
United States can be confusing, even in states where marijuana is legal.
There is an ever-changing number of states that do not necessarily consider marijuana to be legal but
have laws directly related to CBD oil. This information is up to date as of July 24, 2017, but the laws
frequently change.
The laws vary, but they generally approve CBD oil as legal for treating a range of epileptic conditions at
various concentrations. A full list of states that have CBD-specific laws is available here.
Different states also require different levels of prescription to possess and use CBD oil. In Missouri, for
example, a person must show that three other treatment options have been unsuccessful in treating
epilepsy.
If you are considering CBD oil as a treatment for a suitable condition, talk to your local healthcare
provider. They will have an understanding of safe CBD sources and local laws surrounding usage.
Research the laws for your own state. In most cases, a prescription will be required.
Many small-scale studies have looked into the safety of CBD in adults and found that it is well tolerated
across a wide range of doses.
There have been no significant side effects in the central nervous system or effects on vital signs and
mood among people who use it either slightly or heavily.
The most common side effect noted is tiredness. Some people have noticed diarrhea and changes in
appetite or weight.
There are still very little long-term safety data available, and, to date, tests have not been carried out on
children.
As with any new or alternative treatment option, a patient should discuss CBD with a qualified
healthcare practitioner before use.
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved CBD for the treatment of any
condition. It can be difficult to know whether a product contains a safe or effective level of CBD or
whether the product has the properties and contents stated on its packaging and marketing.

CBD is also known to interact with several medications. Before you start using CBD oil, discuss it with
your doctor to ensure your safety and avoid potentially harmful interactions
