Hemp seeds are the edible part of the industrial hemp plant (Cannabis sativa L). These tiny, round seeds have a light nutty flavor and are about the size of a sesame seed. Shelled hemp seeds can be pressed for oil, milled into protein powder, roasted or shelled and made into hemp foods. Hemp seeds contains all the essential amino acids and essential fatty acids that our bodies need, which makes it a perfect protein supplement. No other single source provides such a complete protein in a form that is so easily digested and absorbed by the body.
