Hemp Seed Oil
Hemp Seed Oil 500mg from EssentialSeries is a dietary supplement made from hemp seed oil and flaxseed oil.
At HSN, we bring you a vegan softgel product that combines a balanced 50/50 blend of natural hemp seed oil (Cannabis sativa L.) and flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum L.). It provides a standardized content of 60% alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential omega-3 fatty acid with indispensable nutritional properties. Hemp seed oil stands out for its unique composition, and combined with flaxseed oil, its lipid profile is optimized thanks to the ALA standardization, offering a natural plant-based source of essential lipids.
An ideal supplement for people following diets low in vegetables or nuts.
Properties of Hemp Seed and Flaxseed Oil
For the flaxseed oil, we have used a standardized raw material rather than a full-spectrum one.
Flaxseed oil is a concentrated plant source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid that the body can convert into EPA and DHA.
Meanwhile, hemp oil offers a balanced profile, thanks to the use of a full-spectrum, non-standardized oil, ideally complementing the ALA content of flaxseed oil.
Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA)
* ALA is an essential fatty acid that helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels. This beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 2 g of ALA.
Additionally, ALA is the natural precursor of the well-known EPA and DHA, essential fatty acids. In vegetarian diets or those low in fish consumption, ALA intake is key to ensuring a basic supply of omega-3 fatty acids.
Why choose HSN’s hemp oil?
Carefully selected oils
The quality of vegetable oils depends on care at every stage: selection, pressing, and absence of refining. At HSN, we use gentle cold-pressing processes that preserve the integrity of essential fatty acids, preventing the formation of peroxides and oxidative compounds.
This way, we guarantee a pure, stable oil free from rancidity, with all its nutritional value intact.
Standardized content
The flaxseed oil used in this product has been standardized to 60% alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), ensuring a consistent and guaranteed supply in every dose. A standout feature that shows the quality and transparency of the formulation.
At HSN, we base our labeling on clarity: each capsule clearly states exactly what you’re consuming, with no ambiguity or complicated info to interpret.
Vegan softgels: innovation without gelatin
Most softgels on the European market are made with animal gelatin. At HSN, we decided to break that limitation by using hydroxypropyl starch, a plant-based coating that maintains the oil’s integrity without compromising ethics or quality. The result: 100% vegan softgels, suitable for plant-based diets.
A top-quality format fully compatible with all kinds of dietary approaches and preferences.
Ideal for diets low in plant-based omega-3
People following diets low in nuts, seeds, or vegetable oils tend to have low omega-3 intake, especially ALA. Hemp Seed Oil 500mg is an ideal alternative for:
- Carnivore or ketogenic diets with little plant intake.
- People who don’t eat fish or seafood.
- Users avoiding whole seeds for digestive reasons due to their high fiber content.
- Western populations looking to improve their omega-6 to omega-3 balance.
How do we recommend using it?
Take the softgels with your main meals (for example: breakfast, lunch, and dinner). You can take them alongside other foods rich in healthy fatty acids, like avocado or olive oil.
This way, the oil integrates better into digestion, enhancing absorption of essential fatty acids and boosting their nutritional effects.
Product questions
Does it contain THC?
No. The hemp seed oil used comes exclusively from Cannabis sativa L. seeds, which do not contain cannabinoids like THC or CBD. It’s a completely safe product.
Can I combine it with other omega-3 supplements?
Yes. It can be perfectly combined with:
- Algae oil.
- Cod liver oil.
- Fish oil.
Just like with any other dietary supplement, since hemp seed oil is compatible with any other compound.
Is it suitable for athletes?
Absolutely. Its essential fatty acid content is vital for everyone, but it’s especially important in athletes’ diets.
Can it be taken year-round?
Yes. It’s a supplement suitable for continuous use. Its supply of essential fatty acids makes it ideal to include as part of a daily nutritional routine.
Can it be taken with meals rich in fats?
Yes, and it’s actually recommended. Taking the softgels with foods containing healthy fats improves ALA absorption in the body.
