It’s time to venture beyond stock-standard oils and discover the versatility of hemp seed oil.
Hemp seed oil is a nourishing and raw superfood made by cold-pressing the seeds of the Cannabis sativa plant, similar in the way that olives are cold-pressed to make olive oil. Just to be clear, hemp seed oil is NOT the same as cannabidiol (CBD) oil. The production of CBD oil uses the stalks, leaves, and flowers of the cannabis plant. Hemp seed oil is produced, well… just as it says, from the SEED.
