Extended Info
Hemp seed has served as a primary famine food in China, Australia, and Europe as recently as World War 2. Hemp seed's weight in oil is 30-35% which consists of 80% unsaturated EFAs linoleic acid (omega 6) and linolenic acid (omega 3).

The 80% EFAs in hemp-seed oil is the highest total percentage among the common plants used by man. Flax comes a close second at 72% EFAs. The supreme nutritional benefits of hemp seed oil are mainly due to the perfect ratio of Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids.

Pregnancy and lactation - essential fatty acids are key nutritional factors both before and during pregnancy. Organic hempseed oil provides a 'toxin-free' source of important EFAs which are ideally suited for those looking for suitable alternatives to fish oils.

Comments
King Henry the Eighth passed a law making it compulsory to plant all spare land with hemp; such was its nutritional and commercial importance.

Cautions
Those with gallbladder or liver disorders should introduce nutritional oils into their diets gradually.
Nutritional oils may need to be carefully dosed in those taking anti-coagulant medications.
