Nutiva Organic Shelled Hempseed
Nutiva Organic Shelled Hempseed certified organic seeds are grown without any chemical pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers. Because Nutiva cannot legally grow hemp in the United States, we must reply on Canadian farmers to produce our hemp crops. Shortages of organic seeds often occur due to weather or because surging sales outstrip supply.
- cold-processed
- oxygen removed
These steps ensure freshness and help protect the delicate Omega-3 fatty acids. It's part of Nutiva's commitment to "Nourishing People and Planet."
Shelled hemp seeds (or hempnuts) taste similar to sesame or sunflower seeds and can be added to almost any recipe. Ingredients: 100% raw certified-organic shelled hemp seeds.
Trust Nutiva for the freshest, best-tasting products. Hemp is a gift of nature. Enjoy the world's most nutritious seeds, either plain or as a delicious condiment. Shelled hempseeds are 33% protein, with Omega-3 and GLA - the healthy EFA's doctors recommend. We simply remove the seeds' hard shells, yielding a 100% raw gourmet product that tastes like pine nuts.
Suggested Use
Eat 3 tablespoons daily by adding them to smoothies, cereal, omelettes, yogurt, soups, salads and veggies. Consider lightly pan-toasting the seeds-but not above 325 F, to conserve the EFAs.
