Cold-pressed hemp seeds oil has a mild green color and lends its nutty flavor to a wide variety of foods. It offers a number of nutritional advantages over other edible oils. Hemp seeds oil has a very high content of polyunsaturated fats (Omega 3 and Omega 6), perfect for a healthy lifestyle. It fits perfectly for vegans or vegetarians.
Classic use is as a dietary supplement, taking advantage of the high concentrations of essential fatty acids in unrefined hemp oil. Organic hemp seed oil could be used as a dressing or garnish to improve nutrition. Hemp oil is also used in cosmetics as body care product. It may be rubbed directly onto the skin to treat cracked, dry skin as natural moisturizer and nourisher, or it can be blended into body oils, body creams, and other personal care products.
The oil is not suitable for cooking, because it has a very low smoking point. Unrefined hemp oil does not have a very long shelf life. The oil quickly goes rancid, unless it is stored in dark containers in a refrigerated environment.
The daily recommended allowance of hemp seed oil is 14-28ml (1-2 tbsp).
