Background Info
Hemp nuts and oils consists of oils, vitamins (particularly the tocopherols and tocotrienols of the Vitamin E complex), phytosterols and trace minerals. Hemp also contains all of the essential amino acids.
A 1999 workshop by the U.S. National Institute of Health (see http://ods.od.nih.gov/news/conferences/w6w3_abstracts.html) demonstrated the impressive benefits of a balanced omega-6 / omega-3 ratio in our diet: reduced risk of atherosclerosis, sudden cardiac death and certain types of cancers, decrease in the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, mood improvement in bipolar disorders and optimized development in infants.
Hemp bits has a omega-6 / omega-3 ratio of 3 : 1 or less which is better than the target ratio of 4:1. Hemp oil also provides significant amounts of the more rare 'super' polyunsaturated fatty acids, notably gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and stearidonic acid (SDA). These are not essential themselves, but our body only naturally produces them from the linoleic and alpha-linolenic essential fatty acids, respectively. Supplementation with GLA and SDA appears to alleviate the symptoms of atopic dermatitis and other skin diseases in some patients.
Hemp Bits are the soft centres of the Hemp seeds. We have mechanically separated the hard shell away from the centre. No chemicals, additives or preservatives are used. Hemp seed contains a natural antioxidant which keeps it fresh for months at room temperature.
