Benefits of Hemp Seed Oil and SkinReadily absorbed and penetrates deeply into your skin to provide:
- A smoother, more youthful and healthy skin
- Moisturization that improves softness & smoothness to reduce fine lines, stretch marks and abrasions.
- Anti-inflammatory and soothing effects reduce the symptoms of acne, psoriasis, eczema and Fibromyalgia skin related problems.
Formulated for all skin types, North American Hemp Co. products can actually help minimize visible signs of biological and environmental aging by nourishing, restoring and balancing the skin.
Because its Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) profile so closely resembles the skin's natural lipids, hemp seed oil instantly counteracts the effects of dehydration, a condition that can produce wrinkles and other signs of aging. Hemp seed oil penetrates deeply into the tissue to soothe and help heal dry skin and minor burns. Hemp Seed Oil softens and promotes flexibility by working between surface cells, helping to lubricate, reduce flaking and revive the skin's intercellular structure.
Studies have shown that the anti inflammatory properties of hemp seed oil's Essential Fatty Acids can further aid in the healing of minor skin abrasions and acne. Studies also show that polyunsaturated Essential Fatty Acids, when topically applied, can alleviate skin conditions such as neurodermatitus, dry skin, atopic eczema and psoriasis. These studies have specifically shown cracking or scaling reversed by skin care products containing these omega-6 fatty acids. Additionally, the proven anti inflammatory properties of these Essential Fatty Acids can aid in healing and improving the appearance of sun-damaged and aging skin.
ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS- Hemp oil is one of the few oils that is rich in Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Essential Fatty Acids are fats that the body requires for healthy cells but cannot manufacture by itself. EFAs include Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs), Omega-3, Omega-6, Omega-9, Linoleic Acid and Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA).
- In cosmetic testing, EFAs have been shown to play a preventive role in the skin aging process. The outflow of moisture from the body is regulated by a barrier which the skin forms to protect itself from the external environment. EFAs, particularly Omega-6 and GLA, preserve the "barrier function" of cell membranes. Skin which is deficient in these nutrients allows more moisture loss and can show dryness and loss of elasticity. PUFAs have also been shown to prevent skin dryness and to help restore damaged skin to normal.
- Due to its rich content of Essential Fatty Acids, hemp seed oil is a perfect choice for skin, hair & lip care.
AMINO ACIDS- Amino acids play an important role in women’s health issues & are important to nearly every chemical process in the body that affects physical and mental function.
- Hemp is an excellent source of protein. It boasts a complete spectrum of natural organic proteins, with all 20 amino acids used in the human body, including all eight essential amino acids. The proteins found in hemp are similar to proteins found in the human body. This is important because hemp provides the correct amino acids in the right quantities to help our bodies make the proteins it needs. Hemp is also free of oligosaccharides, the component that can cause gas and upset stomach.
VITAMINS AND MINERALS- Hemp seed oil also provides an adequate supply of antioxidants (Vitamin E), B1, B2, B3, & C, carotene (precursor to Vitamin A), phytosterols, phospholipids and a number of minerals including calcium, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, phosphorus, along with modest amounts of iron and zinc. Hemp seed oil also provides a good source of chlorophyll.
