Henry Ford Said....
"Why use up the forests which were centuries in the making and the
mines which required ages to lay down, if we can get the equivalent of
forest and mineral products in the annual growth of the hemp fields?" -

China Hemp: A Magical Plant
Author： chh Time：Jun 11 2009 9:45AMChina
Hemp is an ancient plant, known as "the king of natural fibers". Clothing and clothing products made from China hemp have many functions like moisture-absorption, breathable, comfort, heat-disperse, anti-mildew, antibacterial, anti-radiation, anti-ultraviolet, and sound-absorption. The fabric is suitable for military and civilian. The excellent properties of China hemp will bring about revolutionary changes to food and clothing for soldiers in the future.
China hemp is a magical plant, which can be processed into a variety of military apparel and high-end apparel materials. It is expected to change the structure of textile products in the world; it might become alternatives of oil, coal and other fossils to reduce environmental pollution caused by energy consumption. China hemp is a multi-purpose plant that is eco-friendly and renewable. It can become white fiber like cotton after processes of degumming and spinning, and then the fiber can be used in wool textiles, cotton textiles, and blended textiles at low-cost. China hemp fabrics
With in-depth study of China hemp, experts find that the plant is all of magic. Moisture-absorption rate of China hemp is 3 times of cotton. China hemp fabric can kill bacteria attached to the fabric within one hour; China hemp fabric can shield more than 95 percent of ultraviolet rays. The fabric does not fade in 370 ℃ high temperature and does not burn at 1000 ℃. The fabric has excellent heat resistance and anti-UV properties. Stalk core of China hemp can be processed into wood powder, activated carbon and pulp for paper; hemp leaves, hemp flowers and hemp roots can extract drugs with functions of hemostasia, loosing sediment, detoxification and securing embryo; hemp seed can squeeze oil; hemp stalk core can absorb formaldehyde 11 times higher than pine and it also has special features to decompose harmful chemical gases. China hemp will be promising in production of military uniform. Chinese army is the world's first army to use china hemp fiber in large volume.

Hemp seed oil is Nature's perfect food!
Hemp seed oil is said to be nature's most perfectly balanced Essential Fatty Acid (EFA) oil. It contains Omega-3 (linoleic acid) and Omega-6 (Alpha-linolenic acid) EFAs in the best proportions for human nutritional needs (a 3:1 ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3). This ratio is very important for continuous, long-term use. (Other EFAs can contain up to four times as much Omega-3 as Omega-6 fatty acids and may cause deficiencies and imbalances in fatty acid production.) It also contains Omega-9 fatty acids.
Hemp seed oil is the only high EFA oil to also contain gamma linolenic acid (GLA). GLA has positive effects on the liver as well and blocks dihydrotestosterone (DHA) production - a contributing factor in baldness. Hemp oil contains the highest amount of the polyunsaturated and essential fatty acids and is low in saturated fatty acids. Hemp seed's competitor, flax seed oil, contains a slightly lower combined total of essential fatty acids.
Benefits of Hemp Seed - Trace Minerals, Protein, Amino Acids, Skin, Hair
In addition to its ideal balance of Omega 3 and 6, it has a huge trace mineral content. Hempseed is a complete vegetable protein that has nine essential amino acids and features a high amount of methionine and cystine, two sulfur-containing amino acids. As a matter of fact, its protein value rivals that of soy. Vegetarians like Hemp oil, as the other obvious place to gain a powerful EFA ratio is in fish oil, and many cannot tolerate the taste of fish oil.
Other benefits of hemp seed oil include its nourishing effect on the skin and the hair. Studies show that skin conditions like eczema also improve with the topical application of oil.
Like flax, the benefits of EFAs in hemp oil include lubricating the colon and restoring healthy metabolism. It is an excellent supplement for encouraging weight loss, as it reduces the appetite by keeping you feel satiated longer and lowering blood sugar. EFAs are useful in the treatment high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, Alzheimer's, diabetes, arthritis, and inflammatory conditions.
