The Virtuals and Versatility of Hemp.....................

Be part of the Hemp Revolution. The fabric of society.
Hemp has been used for thousands of years throughout civilisation for textiles, clothing fuel, furnishing, food and cosmetics. Hemp is an organically grown crop. While cotton has desirable qualities, cotton production is responsible for over 25% of the world's pesticide and herbicide consumption. Hemp is stronger than cotton. Hemp is Ultra Violet Protective. Scientific tests on hemp cloth has shown that up to 95% of ultra violet rays are repelled when the cloth is woven in a tight construction - while other cloths only achieve 30-90%. Hemp is great to wear. When compared to cotton, hemp is softer, warmer in winter, cooler in summer, more water absorbent, 3 times the tensile strength. Hemp clothing is made for comfort, durability and style, with the environment in mind.

Hemp taken orally contains all the required amino acids and essential fatty acids(Omega 3,6 and 9) for a healthy mind(Brain-enhancing DHA etc.) and body.

A truly sustainable crop indeed!
