  1. It is also important to eat ground flax seeds instead of whole flax seeds. It is possible that whole flax seeds can pass through the body without being absorbed in the intestines.

  2. question about hemp seeds. I understand they have a 1 to 4 ratio of Omega-3 to omega-6 which is deemed to be beneficial. My concern is with the high percentage of polyunsaturated fats which for hemp seeds is at about 75% of the hemp oil. From what I've read polyunsaturated fats can become easily oxidized in the body is that correct from what you have read? If so does this not apply to hemp seeds? Would you be able to tell me more about this as it can affect us all?

  3. Flaxseed is better based on its 4:1 ratio of omega 3 to omega 6. Since omega 3 fatty acids counteract the inflammatory effects of omega 6's, it's best to keep this ratio as high as possible. BTW, there's no such thing as a "hempseed"; the hemp plant is the male cannabis plant. Male plants produce pollen, not seeds. It's the female cannabis plant (i.e., the marijuana plant) that produces seeds. Marijuana seeds have many fewer omega 3's than omega 6's, so I would consume them only in moderation.

  4. Hemp seeds are healthier they are the healthiest foods in the world currently so this video is wrong, there is statements from experts that say hemp seed cures cancer and the reason it's being hog washed is due to pharmaceutical companies and governments losing money because cancer is a money making business. bastards
