I want to kick off this series by talking about Hemp Seeds, a true gift for mankind
Long stigmatized because of its "high"-inducing cousins, hemp -- derived from low-hallucinogenic varieties of cannabis -- is making a comeback, not just as a source of fibre for textiles, but also as a crop packed with Fatty Acids, that have profound health benefits. They are one of the most nutrient-dense foods in the world. I have used with new born babies who could breast feed and body builders who wanted to lose fat and pack on muscle. No other single plant source has the essential amino acids in such an easily digestible form, nor has the essential fatty acids Omega 3, 6 and 9 in as perfect a ratio to meet human nutritional needs.
Unlike animal protein that has to be cooked, hemp seed protein is entirely pure and raw and can be eaten as is when shelled , Soaked to sprouting then made into a nut mylk.
Amazingly, these small Fruit/seeds Hemp Seed is not actually a seed but a Achene a seed as fruit) pack almost the entire range of nutrients in their tiny shells. They are high in calcium, carotene, chlorophyll, copper, enzymes, fibre, iron, magnesium, manganese, phospholipids,Major Brain Fuel) phosphorus, phytosterols, potassium, and zinc, as well as vitamins B1, B2, B6, D, and E. It’s more than just a supplement. With its abundant nutritional compounds, high levels of the most bioavalable Protein known to man. It contains 400 known nutrients It is truly what I call a high performance food.
Adding these to a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle can help to overcome many nutrient deficiencies that may arise without a well-balanced and varied diet.
The thing I like about Hemp Seed is that it combines with Cacao, which also has 400 nutrients, to make a super smooth mylk that literally banishes hunger for hours. Just perfect for weight loss, Keto diets, and calorific reduction.
