FAQ
?1 a) What are the differences between hemp and marijuana?
There are many. The most important is that Hemp contains a fraction of the psychoactive compound, Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) that Marijuana does. This is why hemp is legal and marijuana is not. The plants are considered ‘distant’ cousins.
b) Will I get “high” eating Manitoba Harvest™ products?
No, eating our products will not get you “high”. Manitoba Harvest™ hemp foods & oils are made with a variety of hemp seed that has undetectable amounts of THC. These special hemp seeds are further cleaned and processed to ensure that all Manitoba Harvest™ products have 0.00% THC.
c) Will I fail a urinalysis test if I eat Manitoba Harvest™ products?
No. As stated above, Manitoba Harvest™ hemp foods & oils have 0.00% THC so eating them will not cause a false positive on a urinalysis test. If a customer could eat an entire 12oz bottle of MANITOBA HARVEST™ Hemp Seed Oil and an entire 8oz bag of Manitoba Harvest™ Shelled Hemp Seed in one sitting, he would still pass the urinalysis test.
2) Are all Manitoba Harvest ™ products certified organic?
Not all Manitoba Harvest ™ products are certified organic. All Manitoba Harvest ™ hemp seed is grown sustainably without the use of herbicides or pesticides. No chemicals are sprayed on the crop. We also grow USDA certified organic hemp seed for our certified organic products.
3) Is your hemp genetically modified to bring down the THC?
No. The very low THC variety hemp seeds that we use has been selectively bred, not genetically modified. All Manitoba Harvest™ hemp seeds are original source and contain no Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).
4) What are Manitoba Harvest™ hemp foods & oils good for?
Manitoba Harvest™ hemp foods & oilshave many beneficial properties and biomolecules that promote health and wellness. Hemp Seed Oil has one of the highest concentrations of polyunsaturated fats and an ideal balance of the omega-6 and omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids. Hemp contains 54.4% linoleic acid(Omega-6), 18.3% linolenic acid(Omega-3), 3-4% gamma-linolenic acid(GLA) and 1-2% stearidonic acid; and as such is one of only 4 oils to do so and is the most economical one of these oils. Hemp's ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 fatty acids is about 3.75:1 which mirrors the primitive diet man evolved on for 2.5 million years. This ratio of fatty acids has been shown to prevent and even reverse Alzheimers disease in animal models and humans (Yehuda et al, Int J Neurosci, vol 3, 141-9, 1996). Polyunsaturated fats have been shown to be beneficial for the prevention of heart disease, especially omega 3 fatty acids. Hemp contains phytosterols (B-sitosterol, stigmasterol, campestrol) in high concentration (one of the highest) which are known to reduce cholesterol. In fact, the US, FDA allows the claim that plant sterol and stanol esters reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol levels. Hemp contains chlorophyll which is anti-carcinogenic. The phytosterols have been shown to be anticarcinogenic as well (Phytosterols as Anticancer Dietary Components, Awad and Fink, Recent Advances in Nutritional Sciences, 2000, pp 2127-2129). Hemp is a source of complete protein offering 17 different amino acids including all of the essential ones. This protein is relatively high in cysteine and methionine which are two sulfur bearing amino acids that are usually lacking in vegetable proteins.
