Hemp milk is a fast, healthy and delicious beverage. It is the easiest of all the nut/seed milks to prepare because there is no straining involved. Simply mix 1/4 cup of hulled hemp seeds with 1 cup of water and a pinch of sea salt. Add dates and vanilla for a sweeter beverage and a frozen banana for a sweet treat.
Medical researchers and leading doctors consider hemp seeds to be one of the most nutritious food sources on the planet. Hulled hemp seeds contain 33 percent of pure digestible protein and are rich in iron and vitamin E, as well as omega-3 and GLA.
Recently the Canadian government funded a study which states that hemp protein is comprised of 66 percent of the high-quality edestin protein, and that hemp seeds contain the highest percentage of edestin out of any plant source. Hemp also contains three times the vitamin E contained in flax.
It is important that Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) consumed because the human body does not produce any EFAs on a daily basis. Omega 3 fatty acid which are found in flax seeds, walnuts, chia seeds, and hemp seeds are considered "good fats" that doctors recommend as part of a healthy, balanced diet. It is estimated that more than 90 percent of Americans take in too little of omega-3 fatty acid. Hemp seed are made up of 45% of "good fats" in an ideal balance of Omega-3 Alpha-Linolenic Acid, Omega-6 Linoleic Acid, Omega-3 Stearidonic Acid, and Omega-6 Gamma Linolenic Acid. It is also rich in vitamin E and iron.
The quality of omega-3 you consume is vital and is sensitive to oxygen, heat, and light which all contribute to the destruction of the quality. Be sure to buy and eat freshest seeds available and be sure to store them in tightly sealed containers in a dark, cold environment such as a refrigerator.
Udo Erasmus’ book on fats, Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill, it is stated that, "The best-balanced source of EFAs is hemp seed oil."
Hemp seeds should be processed using a cold mechanical process and grown without pesticides or herbicides - certified organic.
