Hemp seeds- Hemp is naturally high in fibre, which helps to maintain a healthy colon, lower your cholesterol, and assists in  reducing the risk of developing heart disease. The fibre content in the seed reduces hunger by giving you a feeling of fullness that will help  dieting and leads to healthier eating patterns.


  • Hemp is the most environmentally sustainable crop on the Planet. 
  • Hemp does not need any herbicides and pesticides to grow, it is 100% Natural.  
  • Hemp is a complete source of protein.  It is rich in Omega 3, with an ideal ratio of Omega 3 to 6, Hemp   is the only source of vegetable protein containing all 10 Essential Amino Acids
  • Although the Hemp crop is in the same family as the Cannabis plant, it contains no THC (the psychoactive substance in Cannabis) – so it is completely safe to eat.

  14. Oh, so many things. Great salad dressing or roast veg marinade is hemp oil, soy sauce, ginger, smoked garlic and a generous handful of fresh chopped coriander or toasted hemp seed mixed through salad and I think hemp milk in a cheesy pasta sauce may give it a lovely flavour (haven't tried this but I think I may!).
