Description

Hemp seeds are very good for improving your metabolism and digestion, good for the heart as they contain a good and balanced amount of Omega 3 and Omega 6, and fiber, good for joint comfort, muscles, and a great aid in sleep. They are super rich in protein and have all essential amino acids required by the human body — a great protein source for vegetarians. Topically, they are good for dermatitis and eczema. They may also support brain functioning, and are great for skin and hair.

NxtGen Ayurveda Hemp Seeds are a superfood health supplement. Although marijuana comes from the same plant, hemp seeds only contain a trace amount of THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, and these will not get you high. These hemp seeds are safe and very healthy to have orally. Hemp seeds are a rich and balanced source of omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), with an excellent 3:1 balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which supports cardiovascular health.

Benefits

Joint Comfort: Research has explored hemp seed's effects on joint health, including studies on cell models related to rheumatoid arthritis. Early findings suggest hemp seed may have anti-inflammatory properties relevant to joint discomfort.

Weight Management: Hemp is a natural appetite suppressant and can help you feel full longer and reduce sugar cravings. Some recommend adding a few tablespoons of the seeds to your breakfast to help curb hunger throughout the day. This is partly due to the fiber in hemp seeds, which promotes satiety and in turn may support weight management.

Hormonal Balance in Women and PMS: Hemp is a rich source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid. Some studies suggest GLA may help support hormonal balance. For women, supplementing with GLA may help ease premenstrual symptoms and reduce cramping and discomfort during menstruation. Hemp is one of the few edible seeds that contains GLA, which the body can convert to prostaglandin PGE1, involved in hormonal regulation.

Hair, Skin, and Nails: Since hemp seeds are rich in protein, they are considered good for skin, hair, and nails. Vitamin E in hemp oil may help improve skin tone and support the skin's natural aging process.

Heart Health: Key ingredients in supporting a healthy heart include fiber, plant-based protein, healthy fats, and eating less sugar — hemp seeds provide all of these. Some research in animals and humans suggests hemp seeds may support cardiovascular health and healthy blood pressure.

A Great Source of Plant-Based Protein: Vegans and vegetarians sometimes have a tough time getting enough protein in their diets. Adding hemp seed is a great way to help with this, as it provides a comparable amount of protein to meat. Hemp seeds are a complete protein source, something that's rare in the plant kingdom, containing all the amino acids the body needs.

Supports Healthy Blood Sugar: Due to its low carbohydrate and sugar content, hemp can be a great food addition for those managing blood sugar, as its nutrients may help support balanced levels.

Brain Health: A 2018 review suggests hemp seeds may have neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties and may help support healthy immune function.

Digestive Health: Fiber is an essential part of your diet and is linked to better digestive health. Whole hemp seeds are a good source of both soluble and insoluble fiber. De-hulled or shelled hemp seeds ("hemp hearts") contain very little fiber, as the fiber-rich shell has been removed.

Also Good for Birds and Horses: Hemp seeds are a suitable feed addition for seed-eating birds and horses.
