Hemp oil is a concentrated extract from the cannabis plant. It has been used in traditional herbal medicine for centuries. It contains more than 100 therapeutic compounds known as phytocannabinoids. This includes cannabidiol (CBD) which is the second most abundant cannabinoid after tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

Cannabis Class: What is Hemp Oil?

            In recent years, the medical community has been paying more attention to cannabinoids for their potential medical benefits It has been used in treating cancer, epilepsy, glaucoma, Alzheimer’s disease, and other conditions. Scientific study on cannabis preparations is limited due to legal restrictions.

            According to the World Health Organization (WHO), commonly reported adverse health effects of… “recreational cannabis use are dependence syndrome, impaired cognitive function, and mental disorders.”

As a result of these psychoactive properties, about one in ten people who experiment with marijuana will become addicted.

Today many people are interested in natural remedies for health improvement.

Various hemp oil products on the market contain little or no THC. They are classified as hemp oil even though they may contain CBD. The confusion between industrial hemp and marijuana is not new. But it does create significant issues when the public misperceives hemp oil as a product of cannabis.

            The term hemp oil usually refers to cold-pressed seed and fiber products. The seeds contain over 30 percent oil and about 25 percent protein. Hemp seed flour or meal is ground from the seeds and used in pasta, baked goods, soups, and salads. Many people use it daily as any other high-protein food such as meat or poultry.

CBD has become famous for medical purposes and skincare due to its anti-inflammatory properties

Some research suggests that it may be highly beneficial in treating the following:

• Arthritis pain
• Asthma
• Glaucoma
• Muscle spasms
• Seizures
• Some psychological disorders.

            The hemp seed oil has a slightly nutty taste and is considered a great food product for vegetarians. It’s suitable for people with diabetes since it doesn’t contain any of the sugar typically found in milk products. It’s also sometimes used as a substitute for olive oil when cooking. This makes it an appealing option for those who want to avoid animal products such as dairy or meat.

Hemp oil prevents cardiovascular disease by lowering cholesterol levels and high blood pressure

It also helps reduce symptoms of asthma, psoriasis, and eczema. Some claim that hemp seed consumption can improve digestion. This is due to omega-3 fatty acids and amino acids (protein) in the seeds; however, there is no evidence to support these claims.

            Hemp seed oil treats many common ailments like joint pain, arthritis, and skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. The high essential fatty acid content in the oil contributes to healthy brain function and suppresses naturally occurring endorphins. These endorphins respond well to inflammation, making injuries feel better when they occur.

CBD becomes legal when derived from cannabis seeds (hemp)

However, cannabis flowers are still illegal at the federal level, even though some states have legalized medical or recreational use. Anyone who wants to try hemp or cannabis products should always check with their doctor before use.

            Cannabis is also known as pot, ganja, weed, grass, dope, and dozens of other names worldwide. For hundreds of years, the hemp plant has been used for fiber, food, oil, and medicine in various parts of the world. It contains over 25,000 different chemicals, including more than 100 active cannabinoids.

The term cannabis is typically used when describing the marijuana plant, which contains THC

When talking about industrial hemp, it’s best to refer to it as “industrial hemp” rather than using the scientific name of the species because that method can lead to confusion among people who are unaware that both plants are the same.

            Hemp oil can be legally purchased online or at certain dispensaries in most states; nevertheless, some confusion surrounds it. CBD derived from industrial hemp is legal and cannot get you high. CBD extracted from actual marijuana has psychoactive effects and may cause you to fail a drug test if consumed consistently.

For this reason, users often ask how to compare hemp oil vs. marijuana oil

Marijuana is the actual plant that gets you high. The answer to this question depends on how much THC is present in the product. Most CBD oils are regulated to contain 0.3 percent THC at most. Still, the concentration might not be listed on the packaging or online store description because it can vary depending on where it was extracted.

            The hemp seed oil contains negligible amounts of CBD and has no other active cannabinoids; therefore, it should not be confused with full-spectrum CBD oils that include trace amounts of THC (usually less than 0.3%). Full-spectrum CBD should not cause any psychoactive effects if your body does not have any preexisting conditions that allow certain cannabinoids to cross the blood-brain barrier.

            One of the essential things about hemp (and all cannabis) is that it contains over 400 different chemical compounds

More than 100 known chemicals are exclusively found in these plants! The human body produces its cannabinoid molecules called endocannabinoids. It uses them to regulate various functions, including sleep, mood, and appetite. While humans have built up a tolerance for cannabinoids from plants after years of exposure, scientists say they can still produce benefits by combining both sources for what’s called the “entourage effect.”
