Sneak in more Omega 3 & 6 with Hemp Milk |
|
The research is really amazing what Omega 3 & 6 is doing for brain development. My kid has Apraxia and his language processing has really improved. http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-19093-Seattle-Special-Needs-Kids-Examiner~y2009m8d30-Brain-development-sneak-in-more-Omega-3--6-with-hemp-milk

1. Hemp is an excellent source of nutrients |
|
Omega 3's AND 6's - EFAA's
Any Vegans should be eating hemp daily - it will replace a lot of the EFAAs you aren't getting from not eating milk and eggs

2. Impossible, the Federal drug scheduling still says Cannabis has no medical value |
|
:eyes:
The fact that hemp is still outlawed isn't just wrong, it's cruel. It's like outlawing vegetable farming.

4. Misnamed just like that nasty "soy milk" |
|
Soy milk is one of the most vile concoctions ever thunk up by our mass food producers. I expect that hemp "milk" is equally or more nasty than the soy.

6. That would be a challenge |
|
My girlfriend swears that it tastes the same as real milk.
Hell no.

7. How many brands did you try? |
|
I love when people try one thing and think it represents ALL things. It even makes me think that they were looking to hate it.
I have to admit, though, that I tried a hemp milk in one of those aseptic packages and it was nasty! It was very bitter, which I attribute to the fragile state of hemp seeds. It is like sesame seeds. They go bitter very quickly. I would rather use hemp seed powder and make smoothies!

9. No, the thing with soy milk is it has to be heavily |
|
processed in order to become even ingestible. The only healthy soy is a fermented soy, but then you have to get non-genetically-modified soy, since alot of soy is genetically-modified.

5. Does Hemp contain DHA and EFAs? Because Flaxseed does not. |
|
And so far I've only heard of fish oil being the complete Omega 3 and 6 supplement. I even went to the natural food store and I found that Flaxseed only contained ALA.
