5 Awesome reasons to try hemp food…
April 27, 2023
We at Hemp Food Tasmania are excited to share with you the benefits of adding hemp to your daily diet. Hemp has been around for centuries, but it’s only in recent years that its true potential has been recognised by science. Let’s explore 5 awesome reasons to add hemp foods to your diet.
1. Hemp is Nutrient-Rich
Hemp is one of the most nutrient-dense foods available, containing all nine essential amino acids, as well as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, fiber, and a range of vitamins and minerals. Incorporating hemp into your diet can help support your overall health and wellbeing, and may even help reduce your risk of chronic disease.
2. Hemp is Sustainable
Hemp is an incredibly sustainable crop, requiring far less water and land than other crops like wheat or soy. It’s also naturally resistant to pests and diseases, meaning fewer pesticides and herbicides are needed during cultivation. Choosing hemp as a food source is a great way to reduce your environmental impact and support sustainable agriculture.
3. Hemp is Versatile
Hemp can be used in a variety of ways, from adding hemp protein powder to your smoothie, to baking with hemp flour, to drizzling hemp oil over your salad. With so many options, incorporating hemp into your diet is easy and delicious.
4. Hemp is Legal
Hemp has been legal to grow and consume in Australia since 2017. It is cultivated to contain only trace amounts of THC, the psychoactive compound found in Cannabis Sativa. At Hemp Food Tasmania, we use only 100% Australian-grown hemp that has been tested and certified to contain less than 0.3% THC.
5. Hemp Supports Local Farmers
By choosing to buy hemp food products from Hemp Food Tasmania, you’re supporting local farmers and Australian agriculture. We work with our farmers to ensure we are offering a sustainable product of the highest quality.
In conclusion, hemp food is a nutrient-rich, sustainable, versatile, legal, and locally-sourced food option that is gaining popularity. Whether you’re looking to support your health, reduce your environmental impact, or support local farmers, hemp food is a great choice.
