Why should I try adding hemp seeds to my green smoothie?
by Deb Dowdle



Hemp seed has been consumed by mankind (and animals) for centuries. Indeed, whole populations have survived off hemp seed in times of famine. 

Hemp has 3 unique nutritional factors. 

1) It has an ideal balance of Omega 3 and 6 for sustainable human health.
2) It has a full amino acid spectrum meaning it provides complete protein.
3) It contains a massive trace mineral content - truly one of nature's superfoods.

Consumption of hemp oil and hemp seed is ideal for people with low essential fatty acid intake, and also perfect for athletes.
