Hemp oil is a unique gift of nature, which man has learned to obtain from hemp seeds by pressing and cold pressing. This method of processing allows preserving a whole complex of useful substances, vitamins and compounds that are easily destroyed by heat. Such oil contains a maximum of polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3, -6, -9), vitamins (A, B1, B2, B6, E, K, T) trace elements (zinc, phosphorus, iron, manganese) and other substances (chlorophyll, carotene, tannins, phytosterol, etc.). That together makes it an incredible product in terms of its characteristics.
Due to this, hemp oil is widely used in folk and traditional medicine for the treatment and prevention of many diseases:

• Digestive system (colitis, ulcers, gastritis, enteritis, cholecystitis, hemorrhoids);
• Skin (dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, acne);
