>Actually, Hemp seed oil is the higest. Also high in the hard to find (in great concentrations) linoleic and gamma-linolenic acids. Hemp seed oil
does not contain THC.

Gamma-linolenic acid is avialable directly from the oils of black currant seeds, evening primrose seeds, and borage seeds. Alpha-linolenic acid is found abundantly in the oils of flax, chia and pumpkin seeds; also in dark green leafy vegetables, and soy products.
I had no idea that hemp seed oil contained EPA and DHA. THe source I use says that it is found only in fish such as salmon, tuna, and trout; also mother's milk and most snakes (snake oil, yum)!
Most people in the western world are deficient in essential fatty acids inluding GlA, due to rampant stress levels.
Where can I get more info about hemp seed oil?
Thanks, Amy
