Hemp Renaissance
In the history of mankind, you would be hard pressed to find a plant that has been with man since time immemorial as the most widespread useful technical crop and yet has caused such controversy as cannabis. It is astonishing how quickly, in the recent past, the representatives of the multinational chemical and cotton industries have managed to create a fictitious demonic reputation for a dioecious herb with almost miraculous powers and to push it to the fringes of social interest for several long decades without any scruples. However, the properties of cannabis, which is closely linked to human culture and its enormous economic and medicinal potential, leave virtually no one in the 21st century information society in any doubt that a renaissance in the mass popularity of this safe and valuable raw material is just around the corner.
Ancient tradition
Cannabis has been cultivated by human societies for several thousand years as an absolutely versatile crop for use in virtually all areas of human activity. Although it is believed that the first hemp seed was introduced to Western Europe in the 8th century BC, it was not until the rise of the Roman Empire that the use of hemp in the economy really took off. The technical, textile and medicinal uses in our living space are documented by much written and physical evidence. It is therefore not surprising that hemp fibre, clothing or, for example, hemp oil and flour were important and widely used consumer items in the civilisation of the time. This ancient tradition persisted virtually unchanged until the 20th century, when the traditional and widespread cultivation of hemp for the production of hemp products was displaced by commercial predators of agriculturally intensive cotton and toxic oil products. The paradox of the times is illustrated by the fact that hemp naturally possesses important properties that the latest technologies are laboriously and expensively trying to replace.
Hemp - a partner for life
If humanity has a true and faithful partner for life, it is the cannabis plant. It can be used to make tens of thousands of different products which, thanks to its superior properties and low price, find a place in industry, agriculture, healthcare and, finally, in every reasonably equipped household. Healthy nutrition is on the rise and therefore hemp food products are usually never missing from a well-balanced diet. The ideal ratio of hemp protein components, vitamins A, B, D and E, proteins or essential fatty acids, contribute to maintaining vitality, robust health and successful treatment of various ailments or diseases. It is not said for nothing that a healthy body is a healthy spirit, and the overall positive feeling of life includes, of course, concern for appearance and beauty. The hemp cosmetics industry has also taken this into account, offering products for superior nourishing hair and skin care in recent years. Fast results for fresh and youthful skin or effective treatment of unpleasant problems associated with acne, rashes or psoriasis are thus becoming the focus of a growing community of satisfied customers.
