Description:
Our 100% Australian grown raw, hulled hemp seed (hearts) have a mild, nutty flavour similar to cashew or pine nuts. They are one of the best sources of healthy fats and plant-based protein on offer today. Gluten-free and vegan friendly, raw hemp hearts also provide a great source of vitamin E, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron and zinc.

Health benefits
Hemp seed is rich in highly digestible protein, meaning your body can absorb it easily. It is also a complete protein source, meaning it contains all the essential amino acids our body needs from our diet. Hemp seeds are a great source of polyunsaturated and essential fatty acids, which are the healthy fats! In total they contain about 30% fat with unique 3:1 ratio of omega-6 and omega-3. This promotes cardiovascular health and may benefit some skin diseases. Another essential fatty acid found in hemp seeds is Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), which can have a hormone regulatory effect which may relieve symptoms of PMS. Hemp seed also provides a great source of vitamin E, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron and zinc.

How to use
Add to salads, smoothies, muesli, granola, yoghurt etc. Hemp hearts also make a tasty, dairy-free milk alternative which we love in coffee. The high protein content makes it froth beautifully. We’ve included a ‘hemp mylk’ recipe on the back of the packet for you.
