Question:

About oils, hemp oil - how does it rank next to avocado or flax seed oil?

— Donna Hanley

Answer:

So we'll go back for a second and say that I am a person who does not use oil. I don't use olive oil, but I eat olives. I don't use avocado oil, but I eat avocados. And I don't use hemp oil, but I use hemp c This happens to be the trilogy. It's got flax, chia and hemp it. And, uh, I sprinkle this on food for flavor. I added to add, uh, a second, you know, as a seconding agent for something that I might be working with. So being able to answer your question on hemp isn't something that I would be totally good at. But remember that hemp seed itself is 30% fat, and, uh, it has a lot of healthy fatty acids in it. So it's like some of the physicians, like Dr. Eston, for example, will say, eat the entire piece of food, not the extracted oil, because there are no nutrients in the extracted oils. So, um, that's my answer to the question. Um, this is, uh, a wonderful product. I love the fact that the three of them are together and I don't have to have like 97 jars in my refrigerator. So Donna, if you want more of an answer to that, um, maybe we can, uh, I can send you some information, but, uh, that's, uh, it for now.
