Like Fish Oil, Only BETTER-
In recent years it has become public knowledge that fish oil can improve health in many ways, with even doctors recommending it to their patients. Fish are not magic, it’s the fatty acids contained within them that heal the body. It’s also well known that our oceans are being depleted and poisoned more and more each day. So is fish oil really a sustainable option for humanity? H**p seed oil contains the same healthy omega fatty acids found in fish. The difference is that h**p seed oil is from a safe and sustainable source, and the fats are in a healthier ratio. This is key to why h**p seed is so special. Despite thousands of years of use, modern research into h**p is only just beginning. We must therefore also look to studies of other omega 3 oils to see the many benefits h**p seed oil holds.

Blood Pressure-
Dietary supplements of omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients, but it seems this effect does not appear in healthy individuals. In simple words, H**p seed oil will not cause low blood pressure and faintness in people with normal values, but it will reduce it in hypertensive (high blood pressure) patients. This lowers the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack.
According to the research published in the Journal of Hypertension (official journal of European Society of Hypertension), omega-3 fatty acids are recommended to be used as an adjunct therapy combined with diuretics and beta blockers in order to achieve better blood pressure control

Heart Disease and H**p Oil-
A 2007 study found that h**p seed oil was able to prevent blood clots from forming. This could be a potential medicine for preventing clot-induced strokes and heart. Researcher in another study concluded that h**p seed oil may provide significant protection from strokes. Recent analysis conducted by the American Chemical Society found that intake of omega-3 fatty acids may prevent coronary heart disease prevention.
When it comes to h**p seed oil specifically, researchers have discovered that it is the plant sterols – special compounds found in plants known to lower cholesterol – that potentially prevent heart problems. H**p seed oil also contains tocopherols, which reduce the risk of degenerative heart diseases, among a variety of other conditions.

Inflammation- This is how the body fights off bacteria and other microorganisms and how it heals itself. But sometimes inflammation gets out of control and establishes as a permanent process, damaging the body functions and causing severe health issues in the long run. Medical research in the past decade revealed it’s the missing link between obesity and diabetes.
A study published in 2013 revealed that omega-3 fatty acids lower biomarkers of body inflammation and metabolic syndrome [52]. Although this finding may seem not so spectacular to laymen, what it tells us is that h**p seed oil can help you prevent diabetes, put the insulin resistance under control or interrupt the obesity- metabolic syndrome- diabetes cascade in time, before serious health complications occur.

Arthritis Symptoms -
Most clinical studies looking at omega-3 supplements for arthritis have focused on rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the joints. Several small-scale studies found that supplementation reduced symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, including joint pain and stiffness. One study suggests that people with rheumatoid arthritis who take fish oil may be able to lower their dose of painkillers (NSAIDs).

Lowering Blood Cholesterol-
Omega 3 is well known for its effect on blood pressure, regularly given to patients by doctors on prescription. Increasing the amount of h**p seed oil in your diet may help cholesterol-lowering medications called statins work more effectively. These medications include:
• Atorvastatin (Liptor)
• Lovastatin (Mevacor)
• Simvastatin (Zocor)

An analysis of 17 randomized, controlled clinical trials looked at the pain-relieving effects of omega-3 fatty acid supplements in people with rheumatoid arthritis or joint pain caused by inflammatory bowel disease (IBS) and painful menstruation (dysmenorrhea). The results suggest that omega-3 fatty acids, along with conventional therapies, such as NSAIDs, may help relieve joint pain associated with these conditions.

Hypertriglyceridemia- one of the most common metabolic disorders, is a condition of elevated triglycerides in the blood. It is essential to understand that omega-3 fatty acids have their place in therapy of different health conditions. These supplements are not always the best choice. For example, in cases of severe hypertriglyceridemia, it’s essential to put it under control as fast as possible, before acute pancreatitis develops (often deadly inflammation of the pancreas).
On the other hand, in patients with moderate elevation of triglycerides, omega-3 fatty acids (H**p Seed Oil) can be used as an adjuvant or single therapy option. Unlike statins, omega-3 FA does not have side or adverse effects, and no drug interactions have been recorded so far. Also, they do not affect liver function (unlike statins which show the hepatotoxic effect in some patients). Why is this important? In some cases, introducing another drug into the therapy of a patient who already regularly takes a few medications can trigger side effects or interact with some of the drugs, changing their “behavior” in the body (a phenomenon with sometimes fatal outcome).

Pre Menstrual Syndrome-
H**p seed oil is rich in GLA (gamma linolenic acid), a building block from some prostaglandins. Prostaglandins play an important role in the body’s function, helping smooth muscles contract, controlling body temperature and inflammation, and other bodily functions. This research suggests that supplementing with GLA is important for optimal hormone health, and may be why so many women with PMS have been helped by h**p seed oil. One study of women with PMS required the women take one gram of essential fatty acids (including 210 mg of GLA) daily. This resulted in a significant reduction in their PMS symptoms. H**p seed oil’s high levels of GLA indicate that it may also help reduce menopause symptoms.

The past two decades brought omega-3 fatty acids into the focus of scientific research. All world known medical journals, published on monthly basis, research results that push further the boundaries of our omega-3 fatty acids understanding. Two or three decades ago, it was unimaginable to hear a doctor say “use more omega-3 fatty acids in your diet to regulate your blood lipids level”. Today, it would be wrong not to try those before introducing drugs into the therapy. Keep in mind that omega-3 fatty acids are not the magical solution for every health problem- sometimes you will need drugs (especially in situations when it’s crucial to achieve therapeutic effect as fast as possible). H**p Seed Oil is a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids and a great alternative to processed fats we consume so much nowadays

H**p Seed Nutrition

H**p Seed Protein

H**p seeds are second only to soybean in protein content. Proteins serve a variety of functions in the human body such as acting as enzymes, antibodies, and the structural components of tissues, hormones and blood protein. The main function of dietary protein is to supply amino acids for the growth and maintenance of body tissue. Digestion disassembles proteins into their basic building blocks - the amino acids.

H**p protein contains all 20 known amino acids including the 9 essential amino acids (EAAs) our bodies cannot produce. Proteins are considered complete when they contain all 9 essential amino acids in a sufficient quantity and ratio to meet the body's needs. H**p seeds contain an adequate supply of these high quality proteins (EAAs) for a well balanced diet.

H**p protein is free of the tryspin inhibitors which block protein absorption and free of oligosaccharides found in soy, which cause stomach upset and gas. Approximately 65% of the protein in h**p seeds is made up of the globulin protein Edestin and is found only in h**p seed. Edestin aids digestion, is relatively phosphorus-free and considered the backbone of the cell's DNA. The other one third of h**p seed protein is Albumin, another high quality globulin protein similar to that found in egg whites. (see our nutritional composition tables for further info)

H**p Seed Oil

The oil contained in the h**p seed is 75-80% polyunsaturated fatty acids (the good fats) and only 9-11% of the lesser desired saturated fatty acids. H**p seed oil is reputed to be the most unsaturated oil derived from the plant kingdom. The essential fatty acids (EFAs) contained in h**p seed oil are required in our diet more than any other vitamin, yet our bodies do not naturally produce them. They must be obtained from external sources in the food we eat. EFAs are involved with producing life's energy throughout the human body and without them, life is not possible. In general, North Americans have a high dietary deficiency in EFAs due to out high intake of animal fats versus plant fats, caused by our high consumption of processed foods and meats versus natural organic foods.

H**p seed oil has been dubbed "Nature's most perfectly balanced oil", due to the fact that it contains the perfectly balanced 3:1 ratio of Omega 6 (linoleic/ LA) to Omega 3 (alpha-linolenic/ LNA) essential fatty acids, determined to be the optimum requirement for long-term healthy human nutrition. In addition, it also contains smaller amounts of 3 other polyunsaturated fatty acids in Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), oleic acid and stearidonic acid. This EFA combination is unique among edible oil seeds. (see nutritional composition )

Extensive studies have demonstrated that many common illnesses are related to deficiencies or imbalances of specific fatty acids in the body. Symptoms are often related to a lack of Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids and their derivatives, the postaglandins. Most people eating a healthful diet, one that includes a balanced ratio of essential fatty acids, also have healthy skin and a strong immune system.

Yet some individuals may experience shortages in specific fatty acids or their metabolites due to dysfunctional enzyme systems or other inhibitions in their metabolic pathways caused by genetic, immune-system-related, or even environmental factors. It has been proven in several clinical studies that dietary supplementation with EFAs or their metabolites (such as GLA) will often prevent or even cure these illnesses. Since h**p seed oil contains both EFAs in a desirable balance while also providing two of the EFA metabolites, it is a good resource for the prevention and treatment of certain illnesses.

H**p seed oil also provides an adequate supply of antioxidants (Vitamin E), carotene (precursor to Vitamin A), phytosterols, phospholipids and a number of minerals including calcium, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, phosphorus, along with modest amounts of iron and zinc. H**p seed oil also provides a good source of chlorophyll. The daily recommended allowance of h**p seed oil is 14-28 ml (1 to 2 tablespoons). This allowance provides between 8 and 16 grams of Omega 6 (LA) and between 3 and 6 grams of Omega 3 (LNA). And lastly, unlike other Omega-rich alternatives (flax, evening primrose, borage or fish oils) that are sold mainly as a vitamin supplement, h**p seed, h**p oil and hulled h**p seed all have a flavorful "nutty" taste that will create consumer demand and can easily be added into most any recipe to obtain a balanced diet!

Caution: Highly unsaturated vegetable oils such as H**p Seed Oil are denatured by heating above 150ºC (300ºF), which can result in the production of unhealthy trans-fatty acids and increased peroxide values. Use H**p Seed Oil as a flavor-enhancer in many recipes. Do not use as a substitute for frying oils. Keep bottles tightly sealed after opening and store in the refrigerator or freezer.

H**p Carbohydrates

In addition to the high quality protein and oil found in h**p seeds, 34% of this nutritional package deal is rounded out with carbohydrates made up of dietary fiber and a small amount of sugar. This dietary fiber is made up of 3% soluble fiber and 27% insoluble fiber. (see nutritional composition.

People are catching on about the benefits of Magnesium.... BUT... why is H**p Oil still the best choice for your source?

Simply because it is the most least processed and natural source of any high dose Mag on the market available.

Add to that all the other benefits of the ideal ratios of all three Omegas... the GLA ... its hard to beat.

Hormone repmacement therapy for women is hazardous at best and while curbing some of the effects of menopause they have risks and side effects that are not very desirable. Enter H**p Oil..... befor I started taking H**p Oil I had very sleepless nights and constant hot/cold flashes often coming and going every 40 min. Its was just awful. Since taking the H**p Oil these outbreaks have significantly decreased. Apart from ALL the other benefits, the fact that am not having to dose myself with a drug to manage this change in life is monumental to me.

For anyone wanting to try H**p Oil or H**p Pellets/Feed with their horse I am offering an initial 50 % off for your first trial/order.
H**p is the best and safest feed for any horse that suffers from ulcers and gut acidosis which is aggravated by feeds that contain grains.
Because of H**ps dense nutritian the amount required per feed is considerably smaller that other feeds.
The fact that H**p is unproceesed and has a low glucose content compared to other feeds.... it offers a superior source of nutrition for your equine companion.
H**p is used by some of the most highly competitive sports horse owners because of this and its ability to aid in faster revovery from intense demands.

Horse owners need to know about H**p!
How does feeding h**p to horses help?
Essential fatty acids
(helps reduce inflammation)
GLA is a regulator of prostaglandins, the hormone-like substances that act as chemical messengers inside the cell. Their physiological effects include regulation of inflammation.
Gamma Linolenic acid (GLA) is an omega 6 fatty acid. Unlike other Omega-6's that increase inflammation, GLA reduces it, benefiting a wide array of chronic inflammatory-related illnesses including skin conditions, allergies, degenerative joint disease, heart disease, & diabetes.
Premium Nutrition
(non-heating, easily digestible pure protein)
When whole h**p seeds are ground, they become a nutritious whole food that offers high quality protein in a highly palatable form.
This is very important to your horse because as horses require enough essential amino acids (building blocks) to synthesize body proteins, including muscle, hooves, blood proteins, antibodies, skin, vital organs, hormones, & more.
An important aspect of h**p protein is that it is a quality source of the amino acids Arginine & Histidine, both of which are important for growth, & of the sulphur-containing amino acids Methionine & Cysteine, both of which are needed in the production of vital enzymes, as well as Keratin, the protein found in hooves & hair.
If only one source of protein is fed (as with one type of grass hay), your horse will not get sufficient amino acids to stay healthy & peripheral tissues such as skin, hooves, & joints will show signs of malnutrition.
H**p seeds offer all 10 essential amino acids (those that must be in the diet) in proper proportion to be best utilized by the body. The quality of protein found in h**p seeds are so high in fact, that it rivals soybeans.

Adding h**p to your horse's diet will ensure they get the highest and most natural form of nutrition.

The only feed that comes out of a bag that is high in omega-3 fatty acids is linseed (flax seed) H**p seed meal or chia seeds.
H**p Seed Meal contains significantly higher levels of oil (8%) than oilseed meals typically used in horse diets. This high quality oil content is exceptionally beneficial to horses. It contains high levels of crude protein (30 %), reasonable levels of lysine (1.1 %), high levels of fiber and low levels of starch.
H**p Seed Meal has substantially higher fiber content, higher oil content and lower starch content compared to Soybean Meal. This is advantageous for horses that are overweight or are predisposed to metabolic disorders such as, laminitis, azotouria etc; therefore, allowing the crude protein content of the ration to be increased without the increase in starch content that occurs with Soybean Meal supplementation. *Add h**p oil with h**p meal .
H**p oil is the most nutritional value of all oils because its 3:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 essential fatty acids, which matches the balance required by horse, dog and its human.
The proportions of linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid in the h**pseed oil easily provides horse daily requirements for EFAs. Unlike flaxseed oil, h**pseed oil can be used continuously without developing a deficiency or other imbalance of EFAs.
This has been demonstrated in a clinical study, where the daily ingestion of flaxseed oil decreased the endogenous production of GLA.
In common with other oils, h**pseed oil provides 9 kcal/g. Compared with other culinary oils it is low in saturated fatty acids. Highly unsaturated oils, and especially poor quality oils, can spontaneously oxidize and turn rancid within a short period of time when they are not stored properly; i.e., in a cool/cold, dark place.
H**pseed oil can also be frozen for longer periods of storage time. Preservatives (antioxidants) are not necessary for high quality oils that are stored properly. The oil is of high nutritional value because its 3:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 essential fatty acids, which matches the balance required by the body.

Royal School of Veterinary Studies, University of Edinburgh, reports that h**p seed ingredients offer significant benefits to health, enhanced body condition, improved energetic efficiency, improved athletic performance and less excitable behavior. Diets for horses high in starch from feeding cereals are known to cause Gastirc Ulcers, Hind-Gut Acidosis, Laminitis and Colic. H**p Seed ingredients are ideal for rations low in starch, high in Oil and Fiber, offering high nutritional value whilst maintaining gut health integrity and offering significant overall health benefits.
