Naturata Hemp oil virgin organic

The finely nutty oil is particularly welcome as an ingredient in the kitchen due to its valuable fatty acid profile. It is very well suited for salads, dressings, marinades, and spreads. However, due to its relatively low smoke point, it is not suitable for frying or deep-frying. On the other hand, hemp oil can also be used for steaming and blanching vegetables.

Special features: Hemp oil has a high content of valuable essential fatty acids. It contains a comparatively high proportion of the valuable alpha-linolenic acid, also known as omega-3 fatty acid. Omega-3 fatty acids are primarily found in fatty fish, making hemp oil a very good alternative to fish. But that's not all. Hemp oil also contains the rare gamma-linolenic acid as well as vitamin E and minerals. Thus, this oil makes a positive contribution to achieving the optimal ratio of 5:1 between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids with a balanced diet.

Production: The seeds are significant for oil production. The hard shell protects the seed particularly well from external environmental influences. The seeds are harvested gently, which is essential for obtaining high-quality oil. In the oil mill, the oil is then cold-pressed. The oil content of the seeds is 30-35%. Naturata hemp oil carries the designation of being native. This guarantees you an oil of particularly high quality. The pressing is done mechanically at a temperature of around 40°C. This ensures that all valuable ingredients are preserved. Excessive heat would damage or reduce these and destroy the special balance of essential fatty acids.
