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 EFAs doctors recommend. We simply remove the seeds' hard shells, yielding a 100% raw gourmet product that tastes like pine nuts.

Eat 3 tablespoons daily by adding them to smoothies, cereal, omelets, yogurt, soups, salads and veggies. Consider lightly pan-toasting the seeds-but not above 325° F, to conserve the EFAs.
