> Excuse us, but do we have any hemp in our teeth?

>

> The Bite:

> It wouldn't come as a surprise, since hemp's now a

> part of our daily

> diets. With its sweet, nutty flavor, infinite health

> benefits and a

> zillion culinary uses, hemp's the new soy.

>

>

> The Benefits:

> - A great source for Omega-3s, which could boost

> your health big time

> - everything from combating heart disease to giving

> you clearer skin.

> - After soy, hemp contains the highest concentration

> of protein in the

> plant kingdom.

> - People who eat hemp regularly report that their

> skin becomes softer

> and their nails and hair stronger after just a few

> weeks.

> - From bread to waffles, hemp's a dream come true

> for people with

> gluten allergies.

>

>

> Personally Speaking

> Jen uses Nutiva hempseed oil in her smoothies, while

> Heather sprinkles

> it on salads. Both have been caught in public with

> hemp in their

> teeth.

>

>

> Wanna Try?

> - Nutiva - you won't run out of uses for their

> organic crushed

> hempseed and hemp oil ($2-$9).

> - Hemp.com - great hemp flour for baking and hemp

> coffee for brewing

> ($2-18).
