Ref.: FHON22EU

Hemp seed oil contains one of the highest levels in essential fatty acids and linolenic acid: 76 %. These EFAs present the best radio between 6 and 3 acids: 3 to 1. They constitute the phospholipids necessary to build the cell membranes and a 3 to 1 ratio is required in the human body for proper cell growth.
Thanks to a full security in the raw material supplied, controlled by the European Union and a specific extraction process, the level of Delta 9 – THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) is lowest.
