NUTRITIONALLY COMPLETE, RAW FOOD  

• 4 tablespoons of raw, easily-digestible hemp seeds contain 240 calories, 15 g of essential fats (Omega 3, 6 & 9), and 24 g of protein with absolutely no additives. 

 

Easily-digested protein 

• Contains all 10 Essential Amino Acids, the building blocks of all proteins in the body
• 65% of the protein in hemp is Globulin Edestin, which is the most easily digestible protein of all as it is very similar to our blood plasma.
• All of our cells use Globulin Edestin as their primary building block.
• A foundation of strong cells is essential to health.  Excellent for pregnant mothers, babies, body builders, senior citizens and even pets!

 

Balanced amounts of Omega 3, 6 & 9 

• Hemp seeds are 1/2 oil, and 78% of the oils are Essential Fatty Acids called Omega 3, 6 & 9.
• Hemp seed oil is the only plant-based oil with the optimal ratios of the 3 essential fats.
• Hemp seed oil is 19% Omega 3, which is higher than most fish oils.
• Omega 3 & 6, when taken in the proper ratio of 1:3 as it is in hemp seed oil, may reduce high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and reduce the risk of heart disease and strokes.
• All the cells in our bodies are coated in Omega 3 & 6.  These oils carry oxygen throughout our bodies and also expel toxins from the body.
• Hemp oil reduces inflammation and may benefit those who suffer arthritis, cardiovascular disease, psoriasis, and tuberculosis.
• Hemp oil improves circulation and may benefit people with diabetes.
• Hemp oil contains 4% Omega 9 GLA, a rare oil not found in many plant sources so our bodies often have to synthesize it from our Omega 3 & 6.  Omega 9 GLA is essential in balancing our body’s hormone functioning.
• Essential Fats like Omega 3, 6 & 9 are best raw and are more easily absorbed if combined with protein foods, therefore hemp seeds are one of nature’s most effective delivery systems for both essential fats and proteins.

Fiber and Enzymes 

• Underneath the hard shell of the hemp seed is a thin green film surrounding each hemp seed heart.  This film is made of live enzymes, nutrients, minerals and chlorophyll which the plant would use if it was to sprout.
• Because the seeds are de-hulled and left raw, all of these nutritional elements are live and intact, ready to be digested and absorbed by our bodies.
• Intestinal health and digestion are greatly enhanced by the presence of these enzymes, minerals, fibers and nutrients.
