Studies and Surveys regarding Nutrition, Fats and Oils.

• Population studies indicate that there is no health bonus derived from eating saturated fats (coconut oil & animal fats) or mono-unsaturated fats (olive oil & soybean oil). Of course these oils have nutritional value, but those who eat them regularly do not have better health than those who eat other oils
• Population studies from Iceland indicate that those who eat cooked whole foods daily (Fish) containing tiny percentages of essential fats (Omega 3 & 6) are unlikely to get Heart Disease.
• Population studies from the Maritime regions of Canada and the United States, in which cooked fish are eaten daily indicate that a relatively high percentage of these individuals live healthy lives beyond 100 years.
• Clinical studies indicate that subtle health benefits are derived from supplementing with small quantities of highly concentrated Omega 3 essential fats (flax and fish oils).

Although it is well established that humans require essential fats (Omega 3 & 6) daily, studies of Canadians indicate that those who eat large quantities of essential fats (canaola oil) with carbohydrates do not experience a health bonus from the essential fats.

It is logical to conclude that although some essential fats (Omega 3 & 6) are required for good health, they need not be raw. It is best that essential fats accompany protein foods.

Many of our customers report that they have used essential fat supplements for many years, but the health bonus they experience from eating Hemp Hearts is profound in comparison.

Properly used, Clear Hemp Seed Oil can promote the same health and lifestyle benefits as Hemp Hearts: Made from only the inner parts of the hemp seed, it is higher in essential fats (omega 3 & 6) than other oils, yet lowest in undesirable saturated and mono-unsaturated fats. Although it does not have the protein of Hemp Hearts, many other high-protein foods and many valuable non-protein foods can be enhanced nutritionally by preparing them with Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil. Be prepared for some of these practices to challenge "food myths" created by those making filthy, unstable oils.

The Nutritional Challenge

The nutritional challenge is to obtain all of the nutrients essential for health with few of the nutrients that detract – to obtain protein, vitamins, minerals and essential fats with less of the sugars, carbohydrates and saturated fats, which may lead to obesity and poor health. Eating Hemp Hearts with fruit and vegetables will provide all of the positives with no negatives. Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil can be used to perfect the nutritional values of fruit, vegetables and protein foods.

Hemp Hearts and Salads

Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil makes omega enriched salads and reduces the use of undesirable alternatives. Salads are usually composed of nutritious vegetables doused with dressings made of saturated fats, mono-unsaturated fats and sugars. Many salad oils are tasty, but one should not be confused by "virgin" "extra-virgin" "organic""cold pressed" and other prefixes into thinking that special preparations can make any oil less saturated or less mono-unsaturated. Olive oil always has a fatty acid profile that is nutritionally inferior to canola oil. Because coconut oil is "firm" at room temperature, it has usefulness in many prepared foods and dressings, but no special preparation will make it less than 88% saturated fat-- twice as saturated as pork lard.

Hemp Hearts and Hemp Seed Oil with Fried Vegetables

Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil can greatly enhance the nutritional characteristics of any stir-fry. Those who are making unstable flax-based oils or green hemp oils which are unsuitable for cooking because they contain protein sludges, moisture-based slimes and strong tastes, have created the myth that all polyunsaturated oils can not be used for cooking. Their oils can not be used for cooking, but they choose to ignore scientific studies that prove that there is no deterioration of omega qualities in heated hemp oil and no formation of trans-fatty acids in heated hemp oil unless cooking times and temperatures greatly exceed those characteristic of normal cooking. Our Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil is sparkling clean. It will not affect the taste of cooked food and will not deteriorate with normal cooking – even many short periods of deep frying. Vegetables fried with Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil make nutrient contributions which complement the proteins, vitamins, minerals and essential fats supplied by Hemp Hearts.

Hemp Hearts and Pure Hemp Seed Oil with Many Other Cooked Foods

Most of any daily nutritional requirement can be met with only five tablespoons of Hemp Hearts: As an individual becomes satisfied relative to health and weight, there is more frequent opportunity for some less than perfect nutritional choices –choices that may be made for social reasons or simply for increasing the enjoyment of life. Many imperfect foods can be greatly improved if made with our Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil. Some baked and fried items will be immensely improved if they are made with omega-rich hemp oil rather than saturated fats. Clear Hemp Cooking and Salad Oil has an important role in keeping food interesting and life exciting.
