HEMP ROOTS

Hemp is derived from the Cannabis sativa plant species. People across the middle latitudes of Europe and Asia have used hemp since 5000 B.C.

Historically, hemp was used for oils and ointments and but was most commonly used for textiles because of its strong fiber. In fact the term “canvas” is derived from the Latin or Greek word, cannabis or kannabis.

Less commonly known in modern times, was its use for pharmaceutical preparations for asthma, migraines, neuralgic pain, sleep, tremors, epilepsy, and corn remedies.
