Hemp & Co

Hemp & Co At Hemp & Co, we believe food is medicine. Hemp and Co.'s creation was one of those serendipitous collisions of fate, chance and timing.

Through our brand 'Essential Eats', we offer nutrient-rich hemp foods packed with essential fats & amino acids to support your health, energy, and wellness—one delicious, whole-food meal at a time. It all started in March 2019. I was looking to diversify my sports massage business by providing products. While researching for ingredients I stumbled across hemp. I found a research paper praising the

benefits of hempseed oil for the skin, especially dry, flaky, eczema skin. Being post-menopausal my skin had become very dry and cracked so I started taking 2 tablespoons of hempseed oil a day. It had a profound effect on my dry hands, I no longer felt compelled to regularly apply hand lotion. More amazing than this, I begun feeling my digestion improve, my energy was balanced, and the pain in my right shoulder (which I had suffered with for years) was gone! I was converted and excited. I couldn't stop raving about this powerful plant. I told my family and friends about hemp so they could experience the incredible benefits for themselves. And so my small idea to add products to my massage business has grown into endless and exciting possibilities of what I can create through Hemp & Co.

Most people think of fats as simply “energy” or “calories.”
But essential fats do far more than that.

Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are critical components of your cell membranes — including the endothelial cells lining your blood vessels.

In simple terms: the fats you eat help build the structure of your cells.

That’s one reason we believe essential fats deserve far more attention in modern nutrition.

At H**p & Co, we’re passionate about creating foods naturally rich in these vital nutrients 🌿

We discovered vitamins and solved deficiency diseases.

But somewhere along the way, nutrition also became about calories, low-fat foods, and isolated nutrients.

This short clip from Dr Dariush Mozaffarian explores how reductionist thinking shaped modern nutrition — and why food quality matters.

In fearing fat, we may have lost sight of the essential fats.

Omega-6 fats are often discussed only in the context of inflammation, but they play many roles in the body.

They are used to make substances that help cells communicate — supporting normal immune, blood vessel, and metabolic function.

Reducing omega-6 to “good” or “bad” oversimplifies how these fats actually work in human physiology.

Much of our early dietary advice came from diet–heart trials that replaced saturated fat with omega-6 fats and assessed success mainly by changes in total cholesterol.

By today’s standards, those methods were limited. LDL and HDL cholesterol weren’t distinguished, and broader health outcomes weren’t fully captured.

Current evidence shows that replacing saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats (both omega-6 and omega-3) supports heart health, however more research is needed to determine optimal intakes of different types & sources of dietary fats.

Omega-6 fats have been debated for decades in relation to heart disease.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0952327818301133

Evidence reviewed in this supplementary paper shows that, in large population studies, higher intake of omega-6 fats — particularly linoleic acid — is associated with a lower risk of heart disease.

This challenges the idea that omega-6 fats are harmful to cardiovascular health and supports a more balanced interpretation of the evidence.
