Hemp Health Facts
Linolenic acid and alpha-linolenic acid are the two essential fatty acids (EFAs), which make up 75% of Nature’s Perfect Oil. As the name implies; they are essential to human health, and must be obtained through the daily diet. Medical studies have shown that consumption of these highly unsaturated fatty acids can have beneficial effects on several chronic and degenerative conditions. Nature’s Perfect Oil also contains over 4% GLA (omega-6) and almost 2% SDA (omega-3), which are both rare and biochemically valuable fatty acids. Both GLA and SDA are natural biological metabolites of the two EFAs.
LA and LNA Functions in our body
• EFAs are involved with producing life energy in our body from food substances, and move that energy throughout our systems. They govern growth, vitality and mental state.
• They hook up oxygen, electron transport, and energy in a process of oxidation.
Oxidation, the central most important moment to moment living process in our body, is the “burning” of food to produce the energy required for life processes.
• LA and LNA are thought to be involved with the transfer of oxygen from air in our lungs to all the cells in our body, where it is used in an oxidation process to produce energy.
• LA helps to produce red blood pigment (hemoglobin). Both EFAs are involved
in a process that makes oxygen available in our tissues by activating (opening) oxygen molecules by way of free radicals or electrostatic forces.
• EFAs form part of all cell membranes. They help to hold protein in the membrane
by the electrostatic forces and control the traffic in and out of our cells. They regulate the rate at which cells divide.
• EFAs substantially reduce the time required for fatigued muscles to recover after
exercise. They facilitate the conversion of lactic acid to water and carbon dioxide.
They are the primary source of energy for the muscle.
• EFAs are growth enhancing and increase the rate of metabolic reactions in our
body. The increased rate burns more fat into carbon dioxide, water and energy, and in fat burn-off and loss of excess weight. EFAs help keep body fats fluid. They help generate the electrical currents that make our hearts beat in an orderly sequence.
• EFAs help energize and govern the movement of chromosomes during cell division and they form part of the new cell membranes that separate the daughter cells after the cells have divided. EFAs help our immune system resist and fight infections, and prevent allergies from developing.
• LNA produces smooth, velvety skin, increases stamina, speeds healing, increases vitality and brings forth a feeling of calmness. LNA reduces inflammation, water retention, platelet stickiness and high blood pressure. It also inhibits the growth of tumors. LNA enhances some immune functions, reduces the pain and swelling of arthritis, and completely reverses premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in some cases. In children, LNA is required for proper brain development.
Linoleic (LA) Deficiency Symptoms
heart and circulatory problems
growth retardation
eczema-like skin eruptions
loss of hair
liver degeneration
kidney degeneration
excessive water loss through skin
drying up of glands
susceptibility to infections
failure of wounds healing
sterility in males
miscarriages in females
arthritis-like conditions
Prolonged absence of LA from the diet is fatal. Adding LA back to the diet from which it is missing can reverse all of these deficiency symptoms (except death)
Linolenic (LNA) Deficiency Symptoms
high blood pressure
sticky platelets
tissue inflammation
growth retardation
weakness
impairment of vision and learning disability
motor incoordination
tingling sensations in the arms and legs
low metabolic rate
mental deterioration
behavioral changes
edema and dry skin
some kinds of immune dysfunction
Adding LNA back to the diet from which it is missing can reverse all of these deficiency Symptoms.

Due to their influence on inflammatory processes such as arthritis, dietary supplementation with omega fatty acids-such as found in hemp seed oil, has generated considerable interest in the medical and scientific communities regarding veterinary health. Enhanced Omega intake has been associated with a reduction in the incidence and severity of coronary artery disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, as well as immune mediated joint, renal, gastrointestinal, respiratory and skin disease. In addition to their role in disease prevention and treatment, this class of fatty acids has also been implicated as an aid to athletic performance.

Omega 3 and Omega 6 for Arthritis Pain Relief in Canines
Arthritis Resource Center
Approximately 25-30% of family pets suffer from arthritis. Broadly described by most vets as DJD (degenerative joint disease), arthritis in pets is just as painful and debilitating as it is in humans. Part of the pain problems associated with osteoarthritis results from inflammation. An interesting observation was made in some clinical studies in the mid 1990’s and is noted in Dr. Atkins “Diet Revolution”. (Avon Books) The doctor suggests that a principal ingredient in the fight against arthritis should be Omega 3 fatty acids. And why is that? Because this essential acid clearly demonstrates that omega 3 relieves both arthritis pain and inflammation.
What may be the most interesting fact about Dr. Atkins’ recommendation is that clinical studies have confirmed that the use of Omega 3 standing alone dramatically reduced the pain suffered by those with rheumatoid arthritis allowing them to lessen their dependence on other drugs.
This leads full circle back to some of the other methods of successfully beating arthritis pain. Diet in general also plays a significant role in the overall picture. By eating less saturated fats, we are in effect taking away one of our body’s means of producing inflammation. Conversely, by increasing the intake of Omega 3 and Omega 6 we are assisting and encouraging the body to produce anti-inflammatory defense mechanisms.
Are there any other benefits that we might gain through the use of Omega 3 and Omega 6? The answer is clearly yes.
Arteriosclerosis is cited as the greatest factor in deaths in this country today. (Thickening in the lining of artery walls, which lead to heart disease.) the ingestion of Omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids therefore benefits the body in still one more way. We actually reduce the risk of developing heart disease and suffering cardiac arrest through the supplementation with the Omega oils.
Implications of Nutrition on Feline Hepatic Fatty Acid Metabolism
The essential fatty acids-omega 3, 6 and 9, linoleic acid, linolenic Acid and gamma-linolenic acid as found in Hemp Oil are essential for the health of the feline liver. If a dietary deficiency of EFA’s occurs or is induced in the feline, classic symptoms such as growth retardation, sterility, fatigue, fatty liver, irritability and poor immune system response result.

FAQ’s
Q: 1. How should I take the Gelcaps and/or the Oil?
A: 1.Recommended dosage for the Gelcaps is 6 per day. However as with any supplement begin slowly start with 2, after a few days up to 4, and after a few more days 6. For Optimum health (recommended by the world health organization) take 1 TB per day. Also begin slowly with 1 tsp., then after a week 2tsp and then a full TB. You can also incorporate this flavorful nutty oil in your favorite sauces, spreads, dips or salad dressings.
Q: 2. Are there any side effects?
A: 2. No, but you could experience an extra visit to the rest room.
Q: 3. Are there any precautions?
A: 3. As with any supplement check with your doctor first if you have any concerns.Omega Oils act as natural blood thinner so if you are on anti-coagulants check with your doctor first.
Q: 4. Can I give this oil to my pets?
A: 4. Yes, all mammals require the same Essential Fatty Acids as humans. Dosage: relative to size, up to 5ml of “Natures Perfect Oil” or as recommended by your veterinarian. Ex. 1 ml per 10 lbs. increasing 1/2ml for each additional 10 lbs. As always begin slowly.
Q: 5. Is hemp seed oil legal?
A: 5. Yes, hemp seed oil is legal in over 35 countries worldwide including USA, Canada, Great Britain, Germany, and France to name a few. Hemp oil and hemp derivatives can be legally imported sold or consumed in the USA, where hemp presently remains illegal to grow and cultivate.
Q: 6. Will Hemp products make me high?
A: 6. NO! absolutely not. The trace levels of THC present in hemp derivatives do not provide anywhere near the potency (percentage of THC by weight) required to give the consumer a drug high. Our oil is non-detectable of THC.
Q: 7. Are hemp and marijuana the same thing?
A: 7. Hemp and marijuana are very different varieties from the same plant species cannabis sativa L. The major difference between the two varieties is the level of THC, the psychoactive ingredient found at levels between 5-20% in marijuana while at trace levels of 0.00003% or less in hemp (maximum allowable limit).
Q: 8. Is there any research on the medicinal properties of hemp oil?
A: 8. Yes, please check the reference article section on this site and we encourage you to do some of your own research as there is tremendous documentation from Doctors, Scientists and Universities around the world. We can provide you with more information at:
info@naturesperfectoil.com.
Q: 9. Can the oil become Toxic or Rancid?
A: 9. Natures Perfect Oil is naturally preserved with Vitamin E. The gelcaps are sealed and do not require refrigeration. The oil however must be refrigerated after opening, and used within 4 months. It is not recommended for frying or heating above 150ºC/300ºF, which can damage or destroy its delicate properties.
Q: 10. Can I give this product to my children?
A: 10. Yes, and we highly recommend that you do. So many children are deficient because of our fast, fried, and processed food diets. More then $128 billion is spent each year on snack and junk food and there is evidence that what we eat as kids affects our later risk of heart disease and premature death, four of the leading killers of Americans are associated with our diet. They include heart disease, some types of cancer, stroke, and diabetes. Poor diets promote obesity, ADD, constipation, and many other childhood health issues. Essential Fatty Acids are necessary nutrients that kids ESPECIALLY do not get enough of. The worse the diet is, the higher the EFA intake should be.
Q: 11. Why are Essential Fatty Acids more important than most vitamins?
A: 11. EFAs perform KEY FUNCTIONS in our cells and tissues that the body CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT. We must have them to live and be healthy. Our bodies cannot produce them from other substances, therefore we MUST obtain them form other sources. They are renowned for their remarkable healing and balancing properties. They assist in the function of the digestive, cardiovascular, immune and glandular system. They work at every aspect of the cellular level & carry oxygen to all the cells so food can be burned as energy. They are important for weight loss and weight management. They help our bodies absorb sunlight which gives us vitamin D to build strong bones. They are important for muscle heart function, inflammation, healing, regulating blood pressure, mental vitality, also VERY VERY important in the fight against breast & prostrate cancer. In other words everything!!!
Q: 12. What can happen if we do not get the required Essential Fatty Acids in our diet?
A: 12. When we are deficient in Essential Fatty Acids it will result in gradual deterioration of cells and tissues, an ultimately in death if the deficiency is severe enough. If we increase our intake to adequate levels it can help to reverse the signs brought about by the deficiency. The more deficient our diets are the greater risk we have of developing health problems. Some complications that can develope are liver damage, stiff and painful joints, pain, hair loss, kidney problems, drying up of glands, infections, miscarriages, retardation, arthritis, weakness, impaired vision, skin conditions, cancer, in other words just about anything.
Q: 13. What are the chances of failing a drug screening test?
A: 13. Recently, several studies have shown that based on the trace of THC present in today’s hemp food and body care products, that the chances of being tested and obtaining a “false” positive drug test is very unlikely (just about impossible!) See http://www.naihc.org/hemp_information/content/THC_emp_drug_testing.html
Q: 14. How does Natures Perfect Oil compare to other EFAs?
A: 14. Natures Perfect Oil:
• Contains 3, 6. & 9 Omega oils * all balanced in the exact ratio our bodies require
• 100 % natural & pure
• More effective because of the natural synergy**
• Non-toxic because it contains Vitamin E, a natural preservative
• Quality control processing to ensure freshness at every step to ensure natural integrity.
• No preservatives, additives, herbicides, or pesticides.
• Affordable
• Simplifies our EFA requirements
• Contains GLA- gamma Linolenic Acid, a building block of life
• Contains plant sterols & sterolins, now one of the most widely researched plant botanicals.***
Borage oil- a good oil except for toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids
Flax seed – the problem is freshness, unless it comes right from the press and you freeze it the deterioration process has already began.
Fish Oil – so many sources are no longer considered safe because of there toxic contaminants & may be less effective than linolenic acid in increasing prostaglandin E1.
* Omega oils 3,6, & 9:There are three “Essential Fatty Acids”.
The human body can synthesize all the fatty acids it needs from carbohydrates,fats and proteins for the diet except for linoleic, linolenic, and acrachidronic acids.
These polyunsaturated fatty acids cannot be made from the breakdown of other substances in the body:They must be supplied by the diet & are therefore called essential.
They are necessary for normal growth, healthy blood, arteries, nerves & necessary for the transport &
breakdown of cholesterol.
NOTE:If we supplement our diet with only one Omega oil, a deficiency of another may be created, in other words we should use a source with all 3 in the correct ratio the body requires and also from a natural composition.
**Synergy- the interaction of two or more agents or forces so that their combined effect is greater then the sum of their individual effects.
***Sterols & Sterolins: Some of the richest sources are found in seeds (the embryonic life force of plants). The purpose & function of sterols and sterolins is to bolster an under active immune system & turn off an overactive system. They help to balance the cells of the immune system so they can function
optimally. They also block abnormal production of inflammatory proteins. The modern diet is greatly lacking in plant sterols and sterolins.
