Notes

Hemp seeds are an excellent addition to any granola recipe and here's why...

Health Benefits of Adding Hemp Seeds to Your Granola Recipe

  1. Supports Weight Loss: The combination of fiber, protein, and healthy fats in hemp seeds helps keep you feeling full longer, curbing those mid-day cravings that can derail your afternoon. This makes hemp seed foods a great choice for anyone looking to manage their weight.
  2. Promotes Heart Health: The omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids found in hemp seeds support heart health, help reduce inflammation, and improve circulation. Incorporating healthy fats like those in hemp seeds can help maintain a healthy cardiovascular system.
  3. Boosts Energy Levels: The nutrient-rich profile of hemp seeds, including B vitamins and magnesium, helps keep your energy levels up and supports the functioning of your muscles and nervous system. Hemp seed foods provide a natural energy boost without relying on caffeine or sugary snacks.
  4. Balances Hormones: Hemp seeds contain gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid that has been shown to support hormonal balance. Maintaining balanced hormones can help prevent stress and optimize weight loss.
 
Hemp seeds are offered different ways for eating enjoyment. Whole hemp seeds, without salt or toasted hemp seeds with sea salt. Both offer a nice crunch and are rich in fiber. Hemp Hearts are soft and chewy because the outside hull has been removed, thus the fiber is gone.
This recipe also calls for hemp protein powder. The protein in hemp is plant based and has 20 amino acids, which include the 9-essential amino acids that makes a protein complete. A superfood protein straight from Mother Nature.
