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.

Your skin’s barrier relies on essential fats.

Did you know **omega-6 is the most abundant essential fat in the skin**? It plays an important role in supporting skin moisture and barrier function.

H**p seed oil naturally contains omega-6 fatty acids, including **linoleic acid** — plus arachidonic acid (AA), the second most abundant PUFA found in skin.

Research has also explored the role of essential fats in skin repair, while h**p seed oil is often described as **non-comedogenic**, meaning it’s less likely to clog pores.

Food for thought: what we eat can influence more than just our internal health.

Seed oils and ultra-processed foods often get discussed as though they are the same thing — but they’re not.

Seed oils are ingredients.
Ultra-processed foods are complex food formulations involving many factors.

Nutrition science is rarely as simple as blaming a single ingredient.

Interestingly, the fatty acids common in many seed oils have been associated with lower risk of several chronic diseases in research.

Food context matters. Dietary pattern matters. Nuance matters.

Based on information discussed by Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

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.
