Swisse, a company that operates in the health and wellness sector through the production of food supplements, presents the new Hemp + range which exploits the properties of hemp seed oil.
In recent years, the interest in this particular vegetable oil has met with growing interest: starting from the world of beauty and wellness, it is now conquering other sectors as well. Swisse, which has always been attentive to the quality of ingredients and continuous innovation, therefore launches, for the first time in Italy, a new line of food supplements made with this ingredient.
To find out more and learn more about these products, we interviewed Cleo Fabbro, Swisse Italia Medical Manager.
What is the main ingredient of the products of the new Swisse Hemp + line and why is it an innovative range?
The heart ingredient of the HEMP + formulations is hemp seed oil, a very interesting substance from a nutritional point of view because within it we find various beneficial compounds for our body: we are talking about a vegetable source containing essential omega fatty acids. -6 and omega-3. In addition, vitamin E and antioxidants are also present in hemp seed oil.
This is an innovative range for Swisse, as hemp seed oil has been introduced for the first time in the product portfolio. It is also innovative for the market, because it is made up of 4 references that combine hemp seed oil with vitamins, minerals and herbal extracts that act on four different areas of well-being.
What are the properties of hemp seed oil?
Hemp seed oil is like a treasure chest: a precious ingredient that in turn is rich in beneficial substances, such as the essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. They are called essential fatty acids since our body does not it is able to produce them autonomously.The essential fatty acids perform indispensable functions to keep our body healthy.
This is why it is important to ensure a proper intake of these ingredients, but even more important to do so in a balanced relationship. Hemp seed oil has the particularity of containing omega-3 and omega-6 in a ratio considered beneficial for maintaining the health of the organism. In particular, this specific ratio contributes to maintaining good cardiovascular and brain function. Hemp seed oil is also an interesting ingredient because, for example, it helps to counteract menstrual cycle disorders, it also helps to maintain the well-being of the skin and joint function. The hemp seed oil present in HEMP + is specially cold pressed because this type of process is very delicate.
We are talking about a slow mechanism with reduced heat levels and minimal friction. This allows to obtain a crude oil and helps to preserve its nutritional qualities.
What other ingredients are contained in the food supplements of the Hemp + line?
To answer this question, I'll start with the name. The range is called HEMP + because "hemp" in English means hemp and the "+" indicates the "plus" or that, in addition to hemp seed oil, we find the combination of other substances such as herbal extracts, minerals and vitamins.
What products does the Hemp + range cover and to meet which needs are they indicated?
The Hemp + range consists of 4 products. The main ingredient is hemp seed oil. In each formula then we find specific vitamins, minerals and herbal extracts to meet different needs: well-being of the gastrointestinal system, energy metabolism, tonic action and relaxation. Let's see them together:
