Alive Foods RAW Organic Hulled Hemp Seeds, 400 g

Hemp is one of the first plants cultivated by humans, with a history spanning over 12,000 years. This robust and fast-growing plant has many applications. Beyond providing highly nutritious and tasty seeds, its fiber can be used for textiles and creating environmentally friendly paper without the need to harvest forests.

Why hemp seeds?

• Hemp seeds are one of the plant kingdom's best sources of complete protein.
• The protein composition in hemp seeds is entirely unique; the bioavailable proteins contain all essential amino acids in ideal proportions.
• Hemp seeds are also one of the plant kingdom's primary sources of essential fatty acids.

Amino acids are not only important for muscle building but are also crucial for our hormones, neurotransmitters, brain functions, and immunoglobulins - antibodies whose task is to eliminate infections before disease symptoms appear.

They are also rich in essential fatty acids, with hemp seeds having a better balance between Omega 3 and Omega 6 than other seeds and nuts that mostly contain Omega 6. Our hemp seeds are harvested and hulled carefully so that they retain their soft and nutritious inner shell which contains valuable chlorophyll and fiber.

Usage: Hemp seeds are delicious sprinkled on salads, in smoothies, over muesli, yogurt etc. You can use them in baking or make bars with them. You can also make healthy hemp "milk" from them.
