What is Hemp Extract Oil?

What is Cannabis or CBD oil?

Have you ever wondered how to take hemp oil? Hemp seed products are becoming more popular in South Africa and are used for cooking, as an additional nutritional supplement and for skincare problems. We’ve taken the time to explain how hemp products can be used in your daily life.

Hemp Seed for Cooking

Why would you want to cook with hemp seeds, hemp protein or hemp oil? The seeds are very rich in omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids. Hemp oil is quite low in saturated fat compared to many other oils.

The nutty and earthy taste of hemp oil is quite strong and flavoursome. It’s perfect to use in salad dressings or dips. The flavour combination with anything sweet on the other hand, is not very tasty, as it will completely overpower the flavour of your dish.

Another brilliant idea is to drizzle your hemp oil over rice or grain salads or to make hemp hummus or pesto. For those fitness fanatics, adding some hemp protein to your smoothies would ensure you get in this superfood very easily. Top tip: it has a low smoking point which means you can’t deep-fry or stir-fry food using this oil.

Hemp as a Nutritional Supplement

For an extra source of protein people include hemp seed products in their daily life. Vegans and vegetarians finally have an alternative to fish-oil products. Fish-oils can be replaced by hemp seeds or hemp seed oil for their needed for nutritional value. It is also a great source of protein when you incorporate the seeds or powder into your eating habits.

Hemp Oil for Skin Benefits

Hemp Seed oil contains the same amount of Omega 3 and 6 as your skin does, which makes it easy for your skin to absorb without feeling oily. Hemp Oil creates a type of barrier between your skin and outer elements – which means that your skin will feel rehydrated.

It’s been proved to help with eczema and psoriasis. These are two serious skin conditions that people struggle with a lot. A lot of hair products also contain hemp oil, because it prevents the hair from split ends, breakage, and from thinning – what a bonus!

The best use of hemp oil for your skin includes washing your face, moisturising your face and to soothe and clear up skin rashes. With anti-aging and anti-inflammatory qualities, hemp oil should definitely crawl its way into your daily skin routine.
