Welcome to the world of HEMP, Americas next epic revolution. Yep, Hemp is coming back by popular demand as ‘we the people’ realize the power generation of this multi-billion dollar industry. It’s time to get some facts straight, so we can innovate, educate and cultivate each other with this re-emerging cannabis hemp world, and welcome it back into our reality and our society!
Let’s explore why…
There are 12,000+ years of recorded history beginning in China documenting cannabis as the strongest fiber available with multi-versatile uses and most important, was the medicinal herb of choice
The disappearance of the cannabis plant happened in America in the early ‘30’s specifically in 1937 with the Refer Madness Propaganda Campaign. This propaganda eventually lead to the classification of all cannabis, hemp, and marijuana as a Schedule I Narcotic (like Heroin). The entire propaganda was to ensure NO competition from hemp industry for the paper, plastic, petrochemical, and pharmaceuticals industries. 1937 was the year the first Hemp Decorticator was built to process hemp more effectively. This was when Science America named hemp the next Multi-Billion Dollar Industry. (For more info, read Doug Fines’ “Hemp Bound.”)
BODY MAJOR! Our bodies have an Endocannabinoid system with receptors for cannabis, go figure, this is huge, who knew, we’ve been living with their lies! This information has been kept from us since 1937. The Endocannabinoid system is what regulates the balance of our endocrine system – could be why so many hospitals continue to be built!
Hemp is an excellent SUPER FOOD. Hemp is very high in protein with all the essential amino acids needed by our human body. Hemp’s Super Food is filled with vitamins, minerals, lecithin, chlorophyll, and good fats. Hemp has at least nine essential amino acids (EAAs) our body cannot produce. Hemp can rebuild our depleted immune system. Hemp is nature’s highest botanical source of essential fatty acids with the perfect 3:1 ratio of Omega-6 Linoleic Acid and Omega 3 Linoleic Acid for cardiovascular health and strengthening of our immune system. Hemp is a superior vegan source of protein as well as a super rich source of phytonutrients.
Hemp products are now available in most health conscious stores across the US, with hemp milk, food, hearts, ski, and hair care. If you want to see more hemp in your supermarkets, ask them for it. If you want to see more American Made Hemp, you can find ‘Made in America Trusted HEMP Products at www.HempingtonPost.com.
Hemp is legal in all 50 states for consumption and interstate commerce.
Hemp CBDs are the best source of daily food we can give our body. CBDs also promote healing on many levels. For greater healing, our cannabinoid receptors may need to be relaxed wherein the THC in marijuana is very helpful. Take hemp CBD food daily for increased health results; it is best taken before bedtime.
America currently imports over ½ billion dollars a year in hemp products.
It is still not legal on a federal level to grow hemp commercially in America. However, there are up to seven states who now study the industrial and commercial framing and use of hemp. Most think it’s insane to study a plant that is non-toxic, non-narcotic, used around the world for centuries, however, this is the US Federal way of controlling the dollars until they can carve out their piece of the pie.
Hemp creates non-toxic plastics; cleaner biofuel, safer non-lead paints, tree-free paper. Also, hemp can produce a wide variety of textiles as well as fire retardant Hemp-Crete for new sustainable housing. Supercapacitors can even be created with hemp. And we’ve only just begun to uncover all the possibilities Hemp can create.
We have a very thirsty American economy. Hemp is a trillion+ dollar industry. Hemp crops can grow in most soils in as little as 12 weeks. Hemp creates a lower carbon footprint. Hemp has something for everybody. Hemp is America’s game changer.
