Product Review: Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts

When you remove the shells off of hemp seeds you get Hemp hearts. Hemp hearts are great because…

1. Their shells are removed making them more easily chewable with a nutty flavour.
2. They are concentrated with omega-3 fats.
3. They are a source of protein, fibre, and calcium and also an excellent source of minerals such as iron, magnesium, manganese, zinc, folate, and phosphorous.
4. They are packaged into small, light pouches that are easily portable and reusable.
5. They are 100% organic as well as gluten and GMO-free.
6. They can be found in most grocery stores in Canada.

Suggested Serving Size:

• 1 tablespoon if your goal is to add a small amount of healthy fat to your meal
• 3 tablespoons if your goal is to add an additional 10 grams of protein to your meal
