    What is Hemp Oil?

    Hemp oil comes from a variety of the cannabis, or commonly known, marijuana plant.  This particular type of Cannabis plant is not grown for it's THC, psychoactive properties. It's grown for it's tall, strong fibers.  There are many textile and household products made from this type of cannabis, among which, is hemp oil.

    Hemp oil is made from the seeds.  It is cold-pressed and should be dark in color and have a nutty flavor.

    If you haven't tried hemp oil yet, now is the time.  It is a delicious, nutty, and delicious oil and works perfectly in many recipes.  Hemp oil is best used when not heated.  You can use it warm but anything that is too hot to touch with your skin is too warm for hemp oil.

    Hemp oil is growing in popularity.  You can find it in most health food stores or online.  I got mine from a great online store, Zatural. They have quite a few hemp oil products that I can't wait to try!

    How to cook with Hemp Oil?

    The best way to cook with hemp oil is to not heat it.  It can be served warm but that's just about as hot as you want it.  If you heat the hemp oil it will loose the omega oils found naturally in hemp oil.  Hemp oil contains fatty acids, omega-9, omega-6, and omega-3.

    Hemp oil has a number of health benefits, here are just a few notable health benefits of hemp oil.
