Okay, so for those that are not entirely familiar with the benefits of high oleic fatty acids in our diets let us first give you a basic understanding of what oleic fatty acid is?

Lower Cholesterol

Reduces Blood Pressure

Decreases risk of breast cancer

To name a few benefits, as for the uses… the R&D upcoming on this topic suggests that high oleic acid varieties of hemp plants in this new strain may be a major step towards developing hemp as a commercially attractive break crop for cereal farmers, adding that the resulting oil has many potential industrial applications.
