2. Protein
Everyone knows that you need a good amount of protein in your diet. Most people think that the best source of protein is through the consumption of meat. However, if you choose not to eat meat, you may be looking for solid sources of protein to add to your diet. Hemp seeds are one of the best choices. Over 25 percent of the calories found in hemp seeds come from protein.
In just two or three tbsp of hemp seeds, you will get about 10 grams of protein. Amino acids are vital to the function of the body, but the body does not produce them on its own. Hemp seeds are a source for all 20 of the essential amino acids your body needs. The amount of protein that is needed daily depends on several factors, including your lifestyle choices and what you currently eat. In many cases, adding hemp seeds to your diet will give you enough protein for the day.
