Hemp /powder/nuts/????

[Joycie Beard]

I am a little disapointed that I have been trying to get a reply for a few days and I feel a little invisible!!:mad: :mad:
All I want to Know is if these products are acceptable and what other raw foodists think. Any input would be greatly appreciated;)

Hemp seeds (hemp nuts) are a seed. I think they are great in raw form. They are a very complete form of nutrition and a great addition to a healthy diet. I would be a bit wary of the hemp protein powders as most of them aren't raw whole ground form and just the hemp shells and other bits ground up. You can find some brands that are just ground hemp seeds though.

I don't think any form of protein supplementation is necessary so I would say avoid the powders. A small amount of hemp seeds sprinkles on a salad or into a smoothie is a great way to get the essential fatty acids.

I'm a huge supporter of hemp seeds. I think they are very nutritious and a good way to get protein in. I have tried the powders only to not like it- don't know why. I get the seeds and then grind it in a coffee grinder or eat plain. Alissa doesn't have many recipes with hemp seeds in it, but Brenden Braizer does and I've made a few of his recipes.

Love the seeds in smoothies, hate the powder and would not use that. Sorry this took some time to get an answer to...I didn't see it before this morning~ Hope you have a great day~

I love hemp seeds, and I also use hemp protein powder. I use the same brand Alissa sells.....Living Harvest. It IS raw, and I find it an essential addition to my diet.

Sometimes by the end of the day, people's posts get knocked down and we miss them. I check in the evenings. This is the first post I saw of this question. BTW- I'm a nanny too! ;)
