OZ Stoners Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 The HEMP Party and the Nimbin HEMP Embassy are revelling in additional Cannabis law reforms, this time in relation to hemp seed now legally grown in Australia and available for human consumption in Australia.To mark this nutritionally historic occasion, the Nimbin HEMP Embassy will be offering free samples of hemp seed and hemp seed oil and tasting all this month.Andrew Kavasilas, HEMP Party Secretary and founder of the Nimbin based hemp company Vitahemp said, “It’s a watershed moment on many fronts. Hemp seeds nutritional qualities are unparalleled so we’ll have a truly healthy food finally available with new farming opportunities including access to an international market that’s touching the $billion mark. And jobs jobs jobs, we’re already seeing them in production, processing, logistics, design and packaging, marketing, wholesale and retail sales.”Hemp seeds contain a significant ratio of Omega 3, 6 and 9, tuned perfectly to the human body with plant based essential fatty acids and a full compliment of vitamins and minerals. The taste and texture is similar to nuts with no known allergies.Because of its superior nutritional profile and gluten free status, hemp seed ingredients are incorporated in muesli bars, salad dressings, pasta, breads, smoothies, biscuits, non-whey high fibre protein, flour and many other products.Hemp seed is also used to make a simple natural non-dairy milk substitute with a legendary rich and creamy flavour.Mr Kavasilas added, “We’ve pursued this relentlessly for almost 20 years. For the past 7 years or so, State police have raised issues around hemp seed foods interfering with random roadside saliva testing despite the fact the devices are not reliable enough to detect the difference between minute traces in low THC hemp seed food consumption or intoxication.”HEMP Party and HEMP Embassy President Michael Balderstone said, ” This throws saliva testing up in the air. State police forces, especially NSW police have forcefully argued and maintained that hemp seed food consumption will interfere with their saliva testing and people will provide positive results which will put further pressure on our courts and the judicial system.”“In light of the fact no other police around the world saliva test like in Australia, I think it’s time our police followed the experience of other countries who are able to tell the difference between nutrition and intoxication, drug impairment and the mere presence of a benign cannabinoid that’s never killed anyone ever in a medical Cannabis user like the increasing number of Epileptic drivers using it to stop seizures.”HEMP PartyThe post Hemp Seed Foods Finally Legal For Australians is on HEMP Party.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/hempparty/~4/nF8ckEDP31YView article source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
