Hemp for Food
AUSTRALIAN HEMP LAWS
We have produced a small range of Keto-style dietary supplements which we are moving to distribute under the Murrumbooee KetoTucker health and wellness brand. Changes to Australia’s importation laws pertaining to Hemp and Hemp by-products took place on 6th November 2017.
We import the following substances under the PI Regulations:
- Hulled hemp seeds
- Hemp seed meal
- Hemp fibre
- Hemp seed oil if:
- the total cannabidiol content of the hemp seed oil is 75mg/kg or less, and
- the total tetrahydrocannabinol content of the oil is 50mg/kg or less
Murrumbooee Food & Nutrition
By having our own high-quality food manufacturing capability the Company is able to supply commercial hemp seed, fibre, hemp protein powder, and other hemp products. These products can be infused into 11 of the 33 quality Murrumbooee condiments.
On the 28th of April 2017, the Council of Australian Governments approved Hemp as a food product!
Food Standard Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ) have given their approval of hemp products to be sold as food. The bi-national government agency which administers the Food Standards Code has approved the sale of foods derived from low (and no)-THC hemp — the psychoactive component of cannabis. The sale of hemp-based foods is currently legal in Australia, but the legislation is being ignored or side-stepped extensively.
We are focused on the propagation and cultivation of Hemp for the purposes of deriving Hemp Seed Oil, Hulled Hemp Seed, Hemp Protein, and Biomass.
Through our experience in the hemp and medical cannabis industries in the US, we understand what is required to prepare and process hemp plants into infusion-capable additives for the range of Murrumbooee products and for other food companies’ use.
Hemp Infused Murrumbooee Food
- To be clear, Hemp foods sold in Australia are low enough in THC (the hallucinogenic substance found in cannabis) that you can’t get high from eating them.
- Until recently, Hemp fell under a classification that prohibits all species of cannabis from being added to food or sold as food.
- Previous attempts to allow Hemp as a food source were rejected after concerns that people who consumed hemp could then deliver a positive roadside drug test. This is no longer the case In Australia.
- Hemp has Omega-3 and Omega-6 in perfect balance for the human body.
- Hemp also has something like approximately 20 Amino Acids in it, including the nine essential ones for human development as well as being really high in protein.
- 100 grams of hulled hemp seeds supply 586 calories. They are 5% water, 5% carbohydrates, 49% total fat, and 31% protein. Hemp seeds are notable in providing 64% of the Daily Value (DV) of protein per 100-gram serving.
- Hemp seeds are a rich source of B vitamins, dietary minerals, manganese (362% DV), phosphorus (236% DV), magnesium (197% DV), zinc (104% DV), iron (61% DV), and dietary fibre (20% DV) (table).

The Development and Processing of Duboisia in the Burnett Shire QLD for Suppliments
From 2017 Good Food Addict commenced looking for suitable property on which to propograte and cultivate Duboisia. Two suitable properties were located in Brigooda west of Kingaroy in the Burnett Shire on which Duboisia grows wild. Duboisia was otiginally used by Aborigional natives who chewed the leaf before runn into the guns of the British. Duboisia has a high Nicotine, which is an organic compound that is the principal alkaloid of tobacco. When Duboisia is processed it it used to make a number of pharmacutical products. GFA’s Founder has distillation experience to extract oil from this plant for the use in food and wellness products.
