Hemp Seed (Super Food)

Nature has given us everything in abundance, so why should you rely on packaged drugs and alter your biochemistry. It’s quite simple actually, let nature nurture.

Have you come across any food that is known to have multiple benefits such as sharpened memory, detoxification, increased energy?

You could eat this for helping you with weight loss, or eat it to get more energy. Eat it for alleviating stress, or eat it for reducing inflammation. This superfood is highly underrated and untapped. We’re talking about hemp.

This superfood dates back as long ago as we can remember and has been vouched for it in our ancient Vedic texts. Modern-day science too, has acknowledged it’s benefits and contributions in a variety of areas.

Just 2-3 tablespoons of these Hemp Hearts can add a nutrition boost to your diet. Consume them raw or just sprinkle a drizzle on your diet, blend them into smoothies and shakes or even make milk out of them.  You can add them to your rice, daal, sabzi, salads, fruit-bowls, khichdi, pasta, shakes or juices.

A GREAT SOURCE OF PROTEIN:

Hemp Hearts are considered a complete source of protein as they have all 20 amino acids, 9 essential and 2 semi-essential amino acids. Our body cannot produce these amino acids on its own. In fact, Hemp Hearts have the highest amount of Edestin protein in the entire world. Edestin is a highly active digestible form of active protein, which results in efficient absorption of nutrients.

Hemp seeds have got high amounts of albumin protein as well, the same protein that gives eggs their glory, except what sets Hemp apart is that it’s completely plant-based, non-GMO and 100% organic.  Just by adding 2-3 tablespoon of Hemp Hearts into your diet, you meet the daily dietary requirements. Isn’t that amazing?

IMPROVES HEART HEALTH:

Prevention is better than cure and we’ve all heard that, but how many of us follow it?
Heart Disease now is the leading cause of disease burden and death in India, with strokes being the fifth leading cause. It makes us wonder why so many people are susceptible to this disease.

The problem lies in a poor lifestyle, with poor eating habits. The food you’re eating could be the poison, but it very well could be the solution too.

Many people have improved their health drastically and improved the functioning of their heart through just diet alone.

So what foods can really make the big impact? You guessed it right, Hemp Hearts surely do live up to their name!

As you can tell, they boost heart functioning as they contain the amino acid Arginine and the Gamma-Linolenic Acid which is an anti-inflammatory omega 3, both of these are responsible for lowering blood pressure and reducing your risk of heart disease.
They are also rich in phytonutrients and anti-aging antioxidants such as vitamin E, that protect the cardiovascular system from any damage.
