What Are The Dangers and Side Effects?
Although this has been hotly contested, hempseed oil is generally safe for consumption and usually doesn’t contain any THC or other psychoactive substances.
Apply it to a tiny test patch of skin before using it topically, regardless of whether you’re using pure hemp oil or hemp oil that has been diluted with essential oils.
Some people may experience the following negative side effects from using hempseed oil:
- Due to the oily, fatty composition of the oil, the most frequent adverse effect is looser stools or stomach distress. To avoid this, start out with a modest dose of hemp oil each day and gradually increase it.
- Before frequently ingesting hempseed oil, see your doctor to determine whether it is safe for you to do so because hemp seeds may interact with blood thinners by potentially suppressing platelets.
