Give your HEART some Love with HEMP By Jessica Aragona, MS, RD, LDN The cannabis plant may be one of the most diverse species of plant that humans have learned to cultivate. Not unlike the many varieties of apples, some of which are better for juices or applesauce, and other varieties which are best cooked in pies: there are different types of cannabis, which have different properties and can be used in many different ways. Certain subspecies of the plant naturally produce compounds that may have psychoactive effects (when ingested or inhaled); other varieties however are grown mainly to produce fibers, foods, wood or seeds. The latter varieties typically have little to none of these psychoactive compounds while still retaining many of the other beneficial elements. Our focus today, The Hemp Plant, is one of the non-psychoactive varieties. Hemp is a tall, woody plant that will grow in practically any climate. Hemp is the nonpsychoactive cannabis subspecies, specifically known as Cannabis Sativa L. A variety of processes can be applied to the different parts of the plant, which may be used for industrial purposes or made into foods and oils that have known benefits for human health and nutrition. 22 Cannabis Lifestyle Magazine / Summer Solstice 2015

Cold pressed Hemp Seed Oil can be used as salad dressing, drizzled over baked potatos, sweet potatoes or grilled vegetables, or added to any of your favorite recipes that call for olive oil. Hemp Seed Oil is best when used cold, as it has a semi low smoke point of 330 degree F (about 10 degrees higher than olive oil) making it not the most optimal oil for cooking. Hemp Protein Powder, Hemp Seeds and Hemp Milk, all make great additions to smoothies, milkshakes or creamy soups. Hemp Seeds are delicious on salads, added to muffins or pancakes, or with their naturally rich, nutty flavor, you may choose to simply eat a handful of seeds all on their own.
