benefits of hemp:
hemp seeds are a nutrient-sense superfood and a seed powerhouse of nutrition- a complete protein. they are also particularly rich in healthy fats, including omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
according to solid starts, ”nutritionally, hemp seeds are a complete protein, which means that they have all the essential amino acids that your baby’s body needs to thrive after 7 months of age. they are also a great source of critical essential nutrients: copper, fiber, selenium, vitamins a and b6, and zinc.”
hemp milk serving ideas:
- warm in the bottle warmer and serve to toddler in a straw-cup.
- cut the recipe water amount in half for creamy & thick coffee creamer
- chug straight from the cup!
