Hemp milk and its benefits

Hemp milk – what is it?

Although this milk is not as popular as almond or soy milk, hemp milk is a vegan alternative to cow or goat milk and obtained by crushing and soaking hemp seeds in water. Hemp seeds are often confused with marijuana, so the idea of ​​drinking hemp milk is unappealing to some people. However, THC is not found in hemp seeds, and in no way is this drink considered a drug or an illegal product. This milk is not widely available, but as more people become aware of its health benefits, milk is gaining more popularity.
Hemp milk is especially appreciated by vegans and lactose intolerant people as it is an all natural drink that is known to be better digested compared to regular milk.

Hemp milk – nutritional value

Many people are surprised to learn that hemp milk contains so many nutrients, including about half the required daily amount of calcium in one cup. In addition, hemp milk contains a number of nutritious fats such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, B vitamins, vitamin A, vitamin E and protein, as well as several other minerals such as potassium, magnesium and zinc. It is very important that hemp milk contains no cholesterol, and the energy value of one glass is only 140 calories – slightly higher than skim milk, but significantly less than whole milk.
