Many of you have reached out to us asking how to make hemp oil yourself. So, without further ado, let’s delve deeper into the different types of hemp oil and give you an easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide to making hemp oil at home.<\/span><\/p>\n


\nHemp Oil vs. Hemp Seed Oil<\/b><\/h2>\n

Though similar in name, there are fundamental differences between hemp oil and hemp seed oil.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hemp seed oil is made by crushing the seeds of the Cannabis Sativa L. variety of hemp plant. This oil is high in essential fatty acids Omega 3, Omega 6 and Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), which is considered to have<\/span> anti-inflammatory effects<\/span><\/a>.<\/span> Research<\/span><\/a> has found that these essential fatty acids can potentially improve brain function and protect against high blood pressure and cholesterol. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On the other hand, hemp oil is derived from the leaves and flowers of the marijuana varieties of the Cannabis Sativa plant. These strains have been bred for their high content of cannabinoids, especially tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These cannabinoids are believed to create homeostasis (balance) in the body by working on the<\/span> endocannabinoid system<\/span><\/a>. This is one of the reasons hemp oil is prized by many medical users.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hemp seed oil contains no THC and is therefore available to buy in almost all health food stores and legal to consume. Hemp oil, however, can only be purchased by medical users in states that allow the use of medical marijuana.<\/span><\/p>\n
