 Hemp seeds have been part of the human diet for as long as history has records, and there is a very good reason for that fact. It's hard to believe that these little seeds are packed so full of super-food nutrition goodness, plus oil that's awesome for both your skin and your antique desk. The super-food nutritional benefits of hempseeds is hard to believe, but the fact is that it's just as good for your skin plus it's a natural non-toxic, food safe, penetrating wood finish (yes, you can use it on your cutting board). 

For 100's of years prior to prohibition Hempseed oil was  known to enhance and protect wood. Tall ships would not have discoverd much of the new world without hempseed oil to protect the wood and hemp canvas sails to power it around the world. 

Hempseed nutrition is so good that it's almost as if hempseeds were designed for human nutritional requirements with a fibrous shell, packed with a nut (hemp heart) that is 44% good fat, 33% protein & 9% dietary fiber. 

Which gives you:

• Pure Protein ~ 8 Essential Amino Acids + 9 other proteins,
• Perfectly Balanced Fatty Acids ~ Omega 6 & Omega 3 in a 3-1 Optimal Ratio,
• Both Soluble and Insoluble Digestive Fiber
• Important Minerals (below)

MedicalNewsToday says the USDA, National Nutrient Database: A 2 tablespoon serving of hemp seeds weighing 20 grams (g) contains:

• 111 calories.
• 6.31 g of protein.
• 9.75 g of fat.
• 1.73 g of carbohydrates (including 0.8 g of fiber and 0.3 g of sugar)
• 14 milligrams (mg) of calcium.
• 1.59 mg of iron.
• 140 mg of magnesium.
• 330 mg of phosphorus.
• 240 mg of potassium
• 1.98 mg of zinc
• 22 micrograms (mcg) of folate

Hemp seeds also provide vitamin C, some B vitamins, and vitamins A and E.

When you consider the value of these amazing seeds, and that Hemp plants requires no herbicide, usually no pesticide, and very little fertilizer and have massive roots systems that improves the soil condition, ... then you have a nearly perfect plant to make products that are healthy for both people and planet!

When it comes to plant seed nutrition, hempseed nut (hemp hearts) and hempseed oil are superfoods for healthy humans, livestock and some pets. Hempseed oil makes great salve for skincare, and is a natural, penetrating wood preservative!
