If you are looking for where to buy shelled hemp seeds, look no further! Hemp seeds have been called nature's perfect food for the simple fact that they contain more nutrition ounce for ounce than almost any other food source on earth. Hemp seeds also deliver plant-based vitamins, minerals, fiber and essential fatty acids (EFAs). In fact, hemp seeds' EFA profile is 3:1 omega-6 to omega-3, which is the recommended ratio for optimal health. Hemp seeds deliver particularly noteworthy levels of linoleic acid (omega-6) and linolenic acid (omega-3) not commonly found in other plant oils. Hemp is also a source of complete protein (including all essential amino acids), which is unusual in the plant kingdom. Our Certified Organic Non-GMO Shelled Hemp Seed is packed fresh on the pristine Canadian prairies where the world's finest hemp is grown. Our whole seeds have a light, nutty flavor that complements a wide variety of recipes and smoothies. Check out these organic shelled hemp seeds for sale from Swanson today!
