Hemp seeds have amazing health benefits and are also quite delicious! Here is a list with 10 amazingly-delicious hemp recipes!
I wasn’t a big fan of hemp seeds until I realized that they really deserve their place next to the other superfoods. After I started using hemp seeds more often, I realized how amazing they are, not only health-wise but also taste-wise!
Hemp seeds are an incredible source of vegan protein and good fatty acids, and regular hemp seed consumption even helps with many health issues that a lot of people encounter during their lifetime.
Besides being rich in proteins and perfect for people who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet, some of the amazing health benefits that hemp seeds include:
- Cholesterol management – it helps maintain it in the right parameters.
- Improves memory and prevents diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
- Clears up skin conditions such as psoriasis, dry skin, eczema.
- Helps you feel full for a longer time and reduces food cravings.
- It is an anti-inflammatory food.
- It’s high in magnesium, zinc, manganese, iron and other valuable nutrients.
- …and much more!
Even though hemp seeds are so good for our health, it seems that they’re not as popular as they should be and that’s why I decided to create this top 10 list with my favorite hemp recipes! I hope these simple, delicious and healthy recipes with hemp seeds will inspire you to add this superfood into your diet.
