Spectrum is known for their cold pressed oil products and I've been
using theirs for a few years now.

They are also the only producer of food grade cold pressed hemp seed
oil.  In this country this oil is legal, but the raw seed is illegal
unless sterilized.  But in TCM this seed has been used for a long time
for certain cleansing and anti-aging treatments, and i recent found out
it his very rich in linoleic or omega6 fatty acids, and has also has
omega3 or alpha linolenic fatty acid, which would confirm the TCM age
old uses.
