Hemp seed oil (HSO) has been an important source of nutrition for thousands of years in Old World cultures. Hemp seeds typically contain over 30% oil and about 25% protein, with considerable amounts of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. HSO is over 80% in PUFAs, and is an exceptionally rich source of the two EFAs (LA and ALA). The ω6/ω3 ratio in HSO is normally between 2:1 and 3:1, which is considered optimal for human health.
Hemp seed typically contains about 25% high-quality protein and 35% fat in the form of an excellent quality oil. It has a remarkable fatty acid profile, being high in the desirable omega-3 fatty acids and also delivering some γ-linolenic acid (GLA), which is deficient in the average Western diet.
