There are relatively few plant-based foods which provide a complete source of protein, making it valuable for any vegetarian or vegan diet.
Benefits of omega-3 fatty acids are well known. Hemp seeds are a great source of multiple essential fatty acids like linoleic acid (omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3) in an ideal ratio of 3:1. As the body is unable to produce these acids, they must be absorbed through the diet, such as hemp seeds.
Vitamin E is a group of fat-soluable vitamins with antioxidant effects. Vitamin E helps to prevent inflammation, prevent coronary heart disease, support immune function, support eye health and lower the risk of cancer.
Vitamin E is also great for skin when applied directly, which is why we've developed our own face mask, H2 Honey Face Mask with Hemp Oil

Thank you for your review :)
I started eating hemp seed since last year and I found out it was such a great source of protein and Omega-3. Since my last purchase was almost over I was looking for a new option. And while I was researching, I found out oneroot honey company which I buy organic honey from had hemp seed too! I was really glad to fine them on amazon because I originally found them at wholefood. After tasting hemp seed, I realized their product quality is so awesome in general. I usually take hemp seed with cold pressed juice, salad and I make pesto out of it too.
First try, just love it. I add them in everything even taking a big table spoon of it mixed with maple syrup. Good taste's like nuts. I will for sure order it again & again.
