Frequently Asked Questions
Can I drive after using hemp products?
We do not know of any case where it has shown positive in a roadside drug test, including Mac who has been randomly drug tested several times and nothing has ever shown (and he takes a good dose every day!).
With our hemp products, the THC content is very low (under 0.3%), which is legal in Australia using our NSW DPI Low THC Hemp Licence.
But, because there’s still a tiny amount of THC in there, we can’t guarantee it wouldn’t ever show up for someone.
So if you’re a truck drive or courier for example, please consider they risk when using our hemp products.
Will it make me sleepy?
Most customers report that our hemp oils do not feel sedating, even when taken during the day.
Feedback from customers often includes:
- a general sense of relaxation
- feeling more settled in the evening
- vivid dreams but waking refreshed
- no grogginess the next morning
Many people choose our Calm & Rested blend as part of their evening routine.
Everyone responds differently, so it’s always best to try a small amount first when you have some downtime at home and see how your body responds.
Can I travel with / take the hemp products overseas?
That’s hard for us to say if it’s ok to use overseas, as we are not lawyers, though some people do travel with their hemp products, and we do send them overseas to NZ, USA, UK too.
It would be up to you if you did take it with you, and check if the country (or any you transit through) has any issues with hemp products.
Will the hemp show up in a drug test?
No it should not, and we’ve never heard of anyone who has had a positive test restult.
We grow a legal, low-THC Hemp variety under a NSW DPI Hemp Licence, the hemp must be under 0.3% THC, and is tested before harvest.
We do not know of any case where it has shown positive in a roadside drug test, including Mac who has been randomly drug tested several times and nothing has ever shown (and he takes a good dose every day!).
Several people who work in the mines also use it and have not had any issues with their regular workplace tests.
But, because there’s still a tiny amount of THC in there, we can’t guarantee it wouldn’t ever show up for someone.
So if you’re a truck drive or courier for example, please consider they risk when using our hemp products.

How much THC is in the hemp products?
Regarding THC, ours has almost zero, it is low-THC hemp, less than 0.3% THC, and does not give a ‘high’ effect.
In comparison, a typical ‘marijuana’ recreational hemp plant may have 10-24%.
Our hemp is grown under strict DPI conditions and must have less than 0.3% THC, it is considered industrial hemp, not marijuana.
We do not sell or manufacture THC hemp products.

Omg! Pain relief for my arthritic and gout ridden damaged knee in five mins! I rub it in well until it almost dissolves, then rub another one of Mac’s arthritis creams in over the top.
It really works!
