HEMPCO FOOD AND FIBER INC. Symbol: TSX.V – HEMP
VANCOUVER, March 20, 2017 /CNW/ - Hempco Food and Fiber Inc.
(TSXV: HEMP) ("Hempco®") is pleased to announce its
launch of a new addition to its PLANETHEMP Consumer Packaged Goods
(CPG) product line in the UK: "CBD & Hemp Seed Oil"
Nutraceutical – a functional food targeted at those with health in
mind. The product launch was delayed several months awaiting the
new UK CBD standards adoptions. Since completed, the product is now
packaged and being distributed into UK healthy foods and products
stores and online shopping channels market place.
"Hempco is committed to "whole crop utilization" and providing
the highest quality hemp seed foods possible, adding a CBD
functional food to its product offering and marketing in its key
target market where its legal is an important statement of our
commitment to innovation and pioneering life improving products,"
says CEO Charles Holmes. "Even
though there is still much confusion regarding the difference
between medical marijuana and hemp CBD nutraceutical products,
Hempco recognizes the benefits to consumers health and well being
and importance to take initiative to step and lead with the finest
products, educate and increase shareholder value. After careful due
diligence it is discovered that Cannabinoids - CBD's may be one of
the most important ingredients for optimal human health and well
being. With Hempco launching PLANETHEMP in the UK, it was realized
that this was the ideal market to launch a phytonutrient rich oil
product with maintenance dose levels of CBD… no different than
those found in mothers' milk and our own bodies' amazing
endocanninioid system. This is not a discussion about illegal drugs
and/or getting high from smoking "demonized" marijuana (hemp with
concentrated levels of THC, only one of the 140 or more discovered
CBD's in hemp), it's a conversation about education and access to
nutraceutical functional foods and herbs to support the human
bodies' own natural functions to heal itself. Fact is, many common
everyday foods have active ingredients that when concentrated and
isolated and consumed, may cause us harm. It seems it's even
possible to get "high" from nutmeg!"

Are the Unique Phytocannabinoids Found in
Cannabis Actually Essential Nutrients?
The answer may
surprise you. March 8, 2017
The human body is an amazingly perfected evolutionary feat of
nature. We have adapted and evolved over thousands of years into
the most advanced creatures on Earth. Each cell in our body
performs a specific task or supports the overall functionality of
another part. Nutrients found in plants and other animals are vital
to the functioning of these cells and without them, we cannot
survive. A growing number of doctors and medical professionals
believe that all disease in the human body is a direct result of a
nutrient deficiency. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies have been
proven to cause diseases, illnesses, and debilitating conditions.
For example, if a human being does not get Vitamin C (Ascorbic
Acid) for a long enough period of time, they will develop a
dangerous skin condition known as scurvy – which left untreated can
lead to death.
If this is what happens when we don't get Vitamin C, what must
happen to our bodies if we do not nourish and feed the other cells?
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a group of endogenous
cannabinoid receptors located in the brains of mammals and
throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems, consisting
of neuromodulatory lipids and their receptors. This system of cells
was only discovered in the past 30 years (1990), and doctors are
not taught about these cells in medical school. Known as "the
body's own cannabinoid system", the ECS… Read
