History of Hemp HeartsTM
(shelled hemp seeds) >>
Q: What exactly are
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) and how are they made?
A.
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) are raw, natural, shelled
seeds of hemp. These are small
seeds or nuts of the hemp plant - please see the pictures on our web site:
http://www.healing-source.com/about_HempFoods.htm The hemp
plant is also called "cannabis Sativa" but as an industrial plant grown
for food, it has no THC, the active chemical that is in marijuana.
Industrial hemp is grown for both food and fiber.
Our hemp is grown in
Canada (southern Alberta) by farmers. It is cultivated like most grain crops with
a combine harvester that removes the seeds. The shells of seeds are then
removed mechanically and the soft nuts inside are packaged as
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds).
Q: What is the
recommended daily amount?
A: For optimal
benefits we recommend 4 - 5
tablespoons per day (42 - 55 g), taken in the morning.
A 450 g / 1 lb.
container of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) will last you about 10 days at this amount.
Q: Do
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
require refrigeration and what is their shelf life?
A: No. You do not need to refrigerate your
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) - they have a
shelf life of up to 1 year, without refrigeration, even after the
container is opened. There is enough natural preservative, in the form
of Vitamin E, that keeps the
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) from going rancid, naturally.
If you want to
store Hemp Hearts products for much longer period of time
(without any damage to the products nutritional value), we recommend
storing them in a Freezer (or fridge).
Q: Are
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
gluten free?
A: Yes.
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) are ideal for gluten-free dietary needs.
Q: Are
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
high in cholesterol?
A: No.
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) are cholesterol free and may actually reduce
cholesterol. The oil that is in
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) is the beneficial kind of
essential fats - polyunsaturated Omega 3 and 6, in perfect balance for
human beings.
Q: Are HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
easy to digest?
A: Yes. The protein in
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
is one of the most easily digestible proteins - more digestible than
meat, eggs, cheese or milk products. One of the principal factors in
proper elimination is having adequate oil (as well as fibre and water)
to lubricate the intestinal tract, and promote regularity.
Q: Are Hemp Hearts™
(shelled hemp seeds) safe for people with allergies?
A:
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) are safe for people who are unable to tolerate nuts.
gluten, lactose or sugar - there are no known allergies to Hemp Foods.
Q: Are Hemp Hearts™
(shelled hemp seeds) safe for animals?
A: Yes.
Those who replace larger amounts of inferior grain-based starchy foods
with smaller amounts of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) will usually produce sleek, trim,
energetic, healthy animals. Significant consumption of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) is usually effective in reversing most health
conditions characterized by poor circulation or inflammation. Older
animals with diabetes, arthritis, heart disease and many disorders of
the digestive system usually respond well to diets containing
significant amounts of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds). Significant use of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) always results in superior hair and skin
condition with greatly decreased shedding. Hair appears vibrant; Eczema,
psoriasis and most other skin and hair conditions disappear.
Those who feed
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) to older pets often notice that their pets
have more energy but less aches and pains.
Older pets usually act and appear as though they were much younger.
Racehorses and other animals used competitively often continue to
exhibit improvements in performance after months of significant use of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds). Initial improvements may be due to the
increased energy available with
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds); Continued improvements are often the result
of increased circulation, reduced inflammation and more rapid recovery
after strenuous competition and injury.
Offspring of animals using
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) achieve their potential more completely and
more rapidly. Pets that can not eat solid food can be fed Hemp Milk
which is made by blending one part
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) with one or two parts water at high speed.
Gradually introduce
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) to your pets in foods to which they are
already accustomed. The portions of other pet foods can usually be
reduced by at least two parts for each weight of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) added. Increase to a daily total of about
four measuring tablespoons (32g. or 1.13 oz.) of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) for each 50 lbs (22.72 kg) of animal
weight—more for high performance animals.
Q: What Should Be
Eaten With HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled
hemp seeds)?
A: Every cell in the human body
needs a good balance of protein, essential fats, vitamins, minerals and
enzymes—every morning. Those who feed their cells properly every morning
will always be amazed at the excellent results.
Those who eat at
least 5, perhaps 8, Heaping tablespoons of
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
early each morning with salads made with spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers,
carrots, radishes, celery, ripe avocado, beans in the pod, alfalfa
sprouts and bean sprouts—further flavored with cayenne pepper, garlic,
lemon, lime and perhaps some yogurt—always experience profound benefits.
More adventurous salad makers sometimes incorporate cabbage lettuce,
kale, chives, water cress, endive, black radish, red beet, dandelion,
sorrel, radish sprouts, soaked beans and chia sprouts.
Those who are in
perfect health can add sufficient fruit and protein foods and tea and
alcohol to increase their enjoyment of the vegetables above -- but
should nevertheless avoid starches or they will have watery stools when
the starches and processed foods are swept along by digested
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
and long fiber foods.
Those who are concerned about their weight should consume their large salad as early
as possible in the morning, and eat only a few vegetables without
dressing in the early evening -- if they are really hungry. Those who are perfectly healthy may eat
meats and fish and fruit and occasionally dessert with their evening
vegetables -- but never starches.
Cooked,
ground, processed foods -- especially starches -- become pastes
which are plastered on the walls of our digestive systems thus
preventing the absorption of nutrients. The most recent food pastes
are then forced to make worm holes through the older food pastes.
Those who eat starches plug up occasionally, forcing their colons to
expand to make passages around these obstructions. Surgeons often
discover that obese starch-eaters have 50 pounds of 10 year old
waste obstructing colons that have expanded in places to become up
to ten inches in diameter.
Colon hydro-therapists notice during
treatments that starch and processed food eaters shed great
quantities of solidified castings as they are dislodged with water
from the walls of their digestive systems.
Avoid
eating cereals, breads, potatoes, pastas, rice or ground foods
together with Hemp Hearts
TM. Those
who eat
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
in quantity with roughage early every morning will notice regular
bower movements.
Those
who avoid starches while supplying themselves every morning with all
of the essential nutrients present in Hemp HeartsTM
will experience many benefits resulting from improved nutrition.

Product: Hemp Oil
Q: Does Hemp Oil
require refrigeration?
A: No. Our pure, Clear Hemp Oil does not need to refrigerated. It has a
shelf life of over 1 year. When the bottles are filled they are nitrogen
blanketed to displace any oxygen or water vapor.
Q: Can I cook with
Hemp Oil?
A: Yes. You can eat Clear Hemp Oil raw or cook with it. Use it as you
would any other salad or cooking oil. It is one of the few cooking oils
that will not smoke at high temperatures.
Q: Will heating Hemp
Oil create trans-fats?
A: No. Laboratory tests have concluded that there is no deterioration of
Clear Hemp Oil unless temperatures are well above 250 degrees C (482 F)
for much more than one-half hour or well above 200 degrees C (392 F) for
longer than 16 hours. Pure Clear Hemp Oil is very stable contrary to
public opinion. A lot of people compare it to Flax Oil which is very
unstable.
Product: Hemp Bars
Q: Do Hemp Bars require refrigeration?
A: No. Storing your Hemp Bars in a cool, dark place is
recommended - direct sunlight and high temperatures might melt the
chocolate.
Q: What is shelf life of Hemp Bars?
Hemp Bars have shelf life of 6 months (without
refrigeration). Although refrigeration is not required we suggest keeping them in a fridge. We do not stock them since they are
made fresh each day and shipped within a day or two so you can count 6
months from the day you received them.
You can store Hemp Bars in a fridge or freezer to greatly increase
their shelf life.
Q: Are Hemp Bars
vegan?
A: Yes. The chocolate in the Hemp Bars has no dairy - it
is bittersweet (dark) chocolate.
Q: Do Hemp Bars
contain sugar?
A: The dark chocolate in half of one bar contains 9
g of sugar, usually insignificant in comparison with the quantities of
protein, essential fats and other valuable nutrients present. There
is no sugar added.
Product: Hemp
Hearts Powder and Flakes
Q: What is shelf life of Hemp Hearts Flakes and Powder? Does this
product require Refrigeration?
A: Never Harmful. Tastes best before 3 months
from the date of order.
Perfect taste for many years if stored frozen.
Q: What are Hemp
Hearts Flakes and Powder and how they are made?
A: The Hemp Hearts Flakes are made by
extracting oil from Hemp HeartsTM
The Hemp Hearts Powder is made by
grinding Hemp Hearts Flakes into fine powder.
Unlike Competitors’ processed Hemp
Products, this product is Not Made With Sandy Textured Ground Shell
Material. Wonderful with berries and cream, fruit
and yogurt, any salad, any snack—any desert.
With much less fat than Hemp HeartsTM,
it does not lubricate the digestive system too much so it can be used
with starches and processed foods.
Normally non-allergenic (Note: most Canadian farm
products can not be guaranteed to be microscopically free of wheat,
weeds or other grains.)
With 35% less calories and 65% more
protein than normal Hemp HeartsTM, these REDUCED FAT Flakes are
extremely satisfying.
Protein is by far the most important
nutrient for tissue health: A 55g serving (1/2 cup) contains as much of
the same amino acids (proteins) as 1.75 liters of mothers’ milk, but
retains about 14% fat—mostly omega fat.
Hemp Hearts (REDUCED FAT) FlakesTM and Hemp
Hearts (REDUCED FAT) PowderTM are
each available in full cases as 9 x 454 g (one pound) tubs per case.
Tubs of Flakes or Powder can be shipped in mixed cases with tubs of
Hemp HeartsTM. where three tubs removed from a case can be replaced with 7 More Than a Square meals. Where two tubs are
removed from a case they can be replaced with up to 4 bottles of hemp
oil.
Customers can save many times the cost of these products in reduced
grocery bills alone and these foods will remain favorites because of their taste, texture
and the manner in which they satisfy hunger.
Hemp Foods: Legal, Drug
Testing, Safety and THC
Q: Are Hemp Foods
legal?
A: Yes, Hemp Foods and other hemp products made form industrial hemp
plants are legal. Hemp without THC is legal to grow in Canada, consume
and export. Our Hemp Foods contain 0.0% THC, as laboratory tested. We
can ship
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds) to many countries as a result. However, it is not
legal to grow hemp in the USA.
Q: Is there THC* in
Hemp Foods?
A: No. There is absolutely no THC (the active chemical that is in
marijuana) in Hemp Foods, not even 1 part per million can be detected.
Q: Will I test
positive with drug testing?
A: No. Because there is no THC, you will not test positive for any drug
test.
Q: Are Hemp Foods safe
to eat if I am pregnant?
A: Yes. Hemp Foods are great natural nutrition for pregnant mothers -
consult your doctor if you are concerned about adding a new food to your
diet. Give your doctor the link to this web site or a copy of the flyer
which is sent with your Hemp Foods.
*
THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol ) is the
psychoactive ingredient found in hashish and marijuana. While THC is
present in all Cannabis plant varieties to some extent, industrial hemp
does not contain an amount to produce any intoxicating effect, even in
significant quantities. In varieties grown for use as a drug THC levels
can reach as high as 24%.
In hemp varieties grown for seed or fibre use, the plants are grown very
closely together and a very dense biomass product is obtained, rich in
oil from the seeds and fibre from the stalks and low in THC content. EU
and Canadian regulations limit THC content to 0.3% in industrial hemp.
Hemp: Organic
vs. Identity Preserved
HEMP HEARTS™ (shelled hemp seeds)
are packaged without additives or preservatives,
grown without herbicides or pesticides from non-GMO hemp seed.
Q: Are Hemp Foods
certified organic?
A: Our product is grown and processed in Southern Alberta, Canada and is
"identity preserved" in lots equivalent to certified organic. Every lot
can be traced to its source and is laboratory tested to guarantee the
absence of contaminants.
Our partner and processor has over 30 years of
experience in the food processing business, and designed and constructed
the only large facility in the world that is dedicated to the production
of shelled hemp seed.
Concerns about
GMO and Organic Certification
Every plant
type has been modified by human and natural selection to such an extent
that no plant type resembles its distant ancestors very much at all.
Every plant type changes every few years much more than any scientist
has managed with trivial genetic manipulations.
A potato was once an enlarged bit of stem. It was bred
into a more typical potato root as a result of hundreds of years of
selection by Central American Natives—long before Columbus. It then
became many thousands of different varieties, each with unique
characteristics, as a result of more recent selection programs----all
this without any assistance from Monsanto.
Rocky Mountain
Grain Hemp
HeartsTM come from a climate where the growing
season is so short that there are no insects until the crop is well-
developed and easily able to compete with insects. We do not need
pesticides, but we do not have insect damage.
Rocky Mountain
Grain Hemp
HeartsTM come from a climate where other plants
die in Winter and do not compete with hemp that is planted on freshly
cultivated fields in early Spring. As soon as the hemp has a good
start, weed plants can not compete well with tall hemp plants--because
the weed plants do not get enough sunlight. We do not need herbicides,
but we do not have crops that are thoroughly contaminated with weeds and
other grains.
Rocky Mountain
Grain Hemp
HeartsTM were not fertilized with animal wastes
like most organic crops. Animal waste always leaves e-coli and other
fecal microorganisms in the water. The water then always takes these
fecal microorganisms to the to the internal parts of plants.
Composting only kills some of the microorganisms in the center of the
compost pile---not the microorganisms at the edge of the pile. We want
our Hemp HeartsTM to
be used raw. We do not want Hemp
HeartsTM to
contain e-coli, listeria, salmonella, campylobacter and the other
microorganisms that live in animal waste fertilizer. Our crops receive
nitrogen that has been extracted from the air using natural gas for
heat---using science not junk science, but making them unacceptable to
“organic” associations.
In my industry most organic farmers sell
mouldy-tasting, bitter-tasting, mixtures of grains and weeds---relying
on the name “organic” to make the sale. Most competitors commonly
blend tiny amounts of this refuse with relatively immense amounts of
conventional grain. The only thing truly “organic” about their
presentation is their label. We have learned how to make Hemp
HeartsTM ---perfect
shelled hemp seeds---every time. Our “organic” competitors are now
using our name Hemp
HeartsTM because
our products have been consistently better than theirs.
Everyone who has ever washed a white car and then
experienced a rain shower on it notices that dark colored air pollution
falls with the rain drops on to the surfaces of their car. Properly
calculated, the pollution that falls on plants and seeds from the air
is immense. The flowers on the male hemp plants produce immense volumes
of low THC pollens. These pollens fall and travel with breezes
everywhere in the hemp fields. Low THC pollens, like air pollution,
stick to the surfaces of all seeds and all other plant material. My
competitors make their oil and their hemp protein powder and other
products from whole seeds, the shells of which are covered with THC
pollens and other types of air pollution. When I test their products
for THC, I commonly find 4 ppm THC. I make my products from the heart
of the seed after the seed has been scoured and the shells removed.
When I test my products--I find zero THC---- to
an accuracy of decimal 2 ppm. My
competitors’ products therefore have at least 2000 percent more air
pollution on their products than I do on mine. (I have done expensive
testing relative to the above and my test results are available…….).
Organic Hemp Protein Powder-- because
of its sandy ground shell content--normally tests with 2000 percent
more air pollutants than our shell free Hemp
Hearts (REDUCED FAT) PowderTM and
other products.
Our Hemp
Hearts (REDUCED FAT ) PowderTM is
the ONLY hemp protein powder that is not sandy and bitter with ground
shell particles. In
fact, we make 30 premium products from Hemp
Hearts—but nothing at all that includes bitter, sandy, ground shell
material.
All of our products are made from the
“hearts” of the seeds--without shell particles—hence our names Hemp
HeartsTM, Hemp
Hearts (REDUCED FAT) FlakesTM, Hemp
Hearts (REDUCED FAT) PowderTM, Hemp
Hearts Dip-Dressing-SauceTM ,
Hemp Hearts Sparkling Clear OilTM, Hemp Hearts Green OilTM and Hemp
Hearts More Than A Square MealsTM—all 25 of them
