LET US HELP YOU UP.

Stiffness in our joints is one of the first things that makes us start ‘feeling our age’. Taking care of our joints then should be a priority.

The human body needs Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids for myriad important functions. If we don’t get enough through our diet (fish, eggs, certain nuts and seeds) we must source other means. 

FOR YOUR JOINTS, SKIN, HEART, & GENERAL WELLBEING

Optimal for Healthy Joints

Hemp Seed Oil provides Alpha-linolenic Acid (ALA) and Gamma-linolenic Acid (GLA) (both potent Omegas) shown to help reduce the swelling, stiffness, and pain caused by internal inflammation. 

Optimal for Good Health & Good Skin

Hemp Seed Oil provides the perfect balance of Omega-3 to Omega-6 in a 3:1 ratio which is optimal for good health.
Omegas help cellular renewal supporting glowing, healthy skin while ameliorating trouble spots like dry, flakey areas.

 

Omegas are Essential

Omegas are essential fatty acids needed for cardiovascular and heart health as well as brain function and cognition. Our bodies can’t make these so they are ‘essential’ to our diets.

What you may notice in your joints when using hemp seed oil

Decreased Joint Swelling
  1.  
  • See those patellas again!

Hemp seed oil is an excellent anti-inflammatory helping to decrease the inflammation that contributes to the increased production of synovial fluid in the joints. Too much fluid means swelling in a space not designed for that amount of fluid, which leads to pain and aches.

Decreased Joint Pain
  1.  
  • Feel the relief

Hemp seed oil contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid with exceptional anti-inflammatory properties. When taken with food or by spoonful, GLA helps to reduce the systemic inflammation that causes pain. It can also be massaged directly into the joint area to help move the fluid and improve blood flow.

Decreased Joint Stiffness
  1.  
  • Strap on your dancing shoes!

The anti-inflammatory properties of omega-6 GLA, and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) omega-3 fatty acids in hemp seed oil help reduce all-cause systemic inflammation. This in turn reduces the overall body stiffness allowing you to become more mobile again.

Decrease in psoriasis
  1.  
  • This might sound strange…

If you have skin problems identified as psoriasis, you may also potentially develop psoriatic arthritis – a painful joint condition similar in symptoms to rheumatoid arthritis. Both psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are inflammatory conditions resulting from an immune system response. Hemp seed oil is almost entirely an essential fatty acid oil. These fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6) play a critical role in normal skin function with the power to decrease inflammation and soothe skin conditions.

What you may notice in your skin when using hemp seed oil

Increased Moisturisation
  1.  
  • Notice the stunning glow

Hempseed oil is an excellent moisturiser. It helps to hydrate the skin without clogging pores, making it suitable for various skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin.

Balanced Oil Production
  1.  
  • Not too oily, not too dry

Hempseed oil contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid with exceptional anti-inflammatory properties that is beneficial for helping to regulate oil production, particularly in the T-zone. This makes it beneficial for oily or combination skin types.

Reduction in inflammed skin
  • Feel the calm, feel the smoothness.

The anti-inflammatory properties of omega-6 GLA, and omega-3 fatty acids in hempseed oil help sooth irritated and inflamed skin conditions, bringing calm to conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

Reduced signs of ageing
  • See the power of antioxidants

The naturally occuring high vitamin E content within Hempseed Oil acts as a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. As dastardly free radicals contribute to aging skin, reducing them may also help reduce the signs of aging.

Sensitive skin relief
  1.  
  • Optimal skin even with sensitivities

Hempseed oil is considered non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores like many other face creams and oils. This makes it an excellent option for people prone to acne or those with sensitive skin.

Repaired, healthy looking skin
  1.  
  • Give your collagen production a boost

As we age, our collagen production slows down which contributes to a less-than-plump skin appearance and the daily encroachment of fine lines that wangle their way to deep crevasses. Hemp seed oil contains amino acids and vitamins that help boost collagen production pathways and cell renewal. This process also helps aid in the healing of wounds, scars, and other skin issues.

Improved, optimal skin
  1.  
  • Hey good-looking!

When we look good on the outside we feel good on the inside and there’s always something youthful and attractive about healthy, glowing, “happy” skin. The all-natural properties of Hempseed Oil has helped both men and women find relief from various skin conditions including dermatitis, acne, dry and rough skin and aged skin. Find your “happy” skin and step outside feeling and looking good with Hempseed Oil!

Putting an all-natural product on your skin like our NZ’s own Hemp Seed Oil can be one of the best things you can do for your skin rather than layering on chemically based, synthetic creams and lotions – especially if you have senstivities or irritations.

Hempseed Oil, being a rich source of various nutrients, including essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, hempseed oil helps your skin to optimal health and give a beautiful healthy glow.

You can apply a small amount to your face and body, and/or add a tablespoon to your favourite dish.

IMMUNE SYSTEM

Essential Fatty Acids support healthy immune function and defenses, as well as helping to re-establish population control over intestinal bacteria, and improve cellular energy for removing waste materials.

HORMONE BALANCE

Essential Fatty Acids help support normal hormone balance by helping stabilise blood sugar levels leading to a reduction in the internal inflammation that contributes to hormone distruption.

CARDIOVASCULAR SUPPORT

Studies have shown swapping out saturated fatty acids from your diet and replacing with Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids like Omega-3s supports the maintenance of a healthy heart.

METABOLISM & NERVE FUNCTION

Omega-3 fatty acids help nerve cells communicate with each other which supports cognitive functioning and mental health. Essential Fatty Acids help oxygen navigate the electron transport system within cells in the creation of energy output as well as provide nerve cell insulation which also helps electrical impluse conduction – meaning healthy nerve communication.
