The research goes on for all demographics. So what can you do to increase your nutritional intake in today’s world where diversity of foods are scarce? Hemp Microgreens. They have the most of everything your body needs. And as we will see, eating some is like drinking a Red Bull energy drink.
Why Should You include Hemp Microgreens in your diet?
Hemp microgreens are a bioavailable source of nutritional value, containing all essential amino acids and fatty acids in sufficient amount and ratio to meet the dietary human demand. Hemp seeds do not contain cannabinoids, and because of their high contents of ω-3 fatty acids, are enjoying a growing popularity as a super-food to beneficially affect chronic inflammation…
