WHAT IS HEMP SEED?

Hemp is a high protein seed containing all nine of the essential amino acids (like flax). It also has high amounts of fatty acids and fiber as well as containing vitamin E and trace minerals. It has a balanced ratio of omega 3 to 6 fats at around a three to one ratio. Further the protein content of the hemp seed is supposed to be very digestible. Many people noted their personal experience of finding that hemp seed protein did not cause bloating or gas, like some of their whey, or other protein shakes did. And, get this, unlike soy which has super high amounts of phytic acid (that anti-nutrient that prevents us from absorbing minerals), hemp seed doesn't contain phytic acid. At the very least, this makes hemp seed a step up from soy. It contains a list of benefits including what I mentioned above plus including some others as well. Hemp seed contains: * All 20 amino acids, including the 9 essential amino acids (EAAs) our bodies cannot produce. * A high protein percentage of the simple proteins that strengthen immunity and fend off toxins. * Eating hemp seeds in any form could aid, if not heal, people suffering from immune deficiency diseases. This conclusion is supported by the fact that hemp seed has been used to treat nutritional deficiencies brought on by tuberculosis, a severe nutrition blocking disease that causes the body to waste away.3 * Nature's highest botanical source of essential fatty acid, with more essential fatty acid than flax or any other nut or seed oil. * A perfect 3:1 ratio of Omega-6 Linoleic Acid and Omega-3 Linolenic Acid – for cardiovascular health and general strengthening of the immune system. * A superior vegetarian source of protein considered easily digestible. * A rich source of phytonutrients, the disease-protective element of plants with benefits protecting your immunity, bloodstream, tissues, cells, skin, organs and mitochondria. * The richest known source of polyunsaturated essential fatty acids.
