Ingredient Spotlight: Hemp Seeds

October 26, 2016

 

Can you guess the one word that comes up over and over when you read about hemp?

“Perfect.”

Here are a few reasons why we love hemp seeds:

  • They are the PERFECT protein by containing all 20 amino acids, and also each of the 9 essential amino acids that our bodies cannot produce.
  • Contain the PERFECT balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which promote cardiovascular health.
  • The PERFECT nutritional “supplement” containing all the vitamins and minerals the body needs on a daily basis.
  • PERFECT to add to salads, yogurts, cereals, and more for an all-natural and allergy-free nutritional boost.
  
The slightly nutty flavor and soft texture make it the perfect addition to the Hemp+Sunflower+Pumpkin Seed Thunderbird Bar. This bar is for those looking for a nutrient dense and low sugar (never any added sugar!) snack. Give it a try this month and use the code Hemp20 for 20% off all orders. And if you really like the taste of hemp seeds, then head over to our friends at Happy Hemp to grab a bag of this perfect super-food.
