Adherents of a healthy diet try to include hemp seeds in their daily diet – a superfood rich in useful vitamins, trace elements and fiber.

It is used not only in the nutrition of adults who monitor health, but also in babies – milk is made from it, added to cereals and sweets, and hypoallergenic clothes are made from fibers. -
High content of globular protein.
It is involved in transport, regulatory and a number of other auxiliary functions, and most importantly, it is easily digested. 100 g of hemp seeds contain 33-35 g of vegetable protein. With the proper inclusion of superfoods in the diet, they can replace the daily norm of animal protein contained in meat. Thus, hemp seeds should be included in the menu of every vegetarian and raw foodist. -
The presence of polyunsaturated vegetable oils (Omega-3 and Omega-6).
