Here is a good read:

EXPECT HEALTH AND LIFESTYLE BENEFITS FROM HEMP HEARTS (shelled hemp seeds) AS FOLLOWS:


ENERGY: Expect sufficient energy to increase productivity and better enjoy life. You will not need energy boosts from coffee and other stimulants. You will naturally select less pastries, sweets, candy bars and sugar-based drinks.


WEIGHT: Expect to be free of significant hunger until mid-afternoon. Depending on your health and weight, you may choose to miss lunch entirely. You may restrict yourself to a salad in the evening and lose up to one pound per day, 30 pounds per month. Or without hunger, you may often make later food choices for fruit, salads and vegetables knowing that with Hemp Hearts you have already consumed all of the essential fats, proteins and most vitamins and other nutrients necessary for promoting good health. With less hunger you will less frequently select starches and carbohydrates.


CRAVINGS: Expect reduced cravings for foods with stimulants, sugars, starches and saturated fats. Often marketed effectively by multinational food giants, such foods in excess promote obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, strokes, diabetes and increased susceptibility to cancer and a whole spectrum of diet-related and infectious diseases. A breakfast of Hemp Hearts is a concentrated and balanced source of all required proteins and essential fats: Satisfied by Hemp Hearts your body will not make insatiable demands that result in unhealthy food choices.


DIGESTION: Expect to be untroubled by constipation and less susceptible to intestinal diseases. Hemp Hearts is very easily digested by young and old. Important nutritional benefits are readily transferred to those not yet born. Coarse fibers and plant sterols found in Hemp Hearts are thought to reduce the risk of colon and prostate cancer. Hemp Hearts has none of the anti-nutritional factors that reduce the value of soybeans in many food items.


FOOD INTOLERANCE: Expect none of the symptoms of food allergies. Hemp Hearts is especially beneficial to those who are unable for any reason to eat gluten, lactose, saturated fats, sugars, meats, nuts, fish, beans, etc. Using Hemp Hearts it is not difficult to achieve an exciting and nutritionally superior diet without consuming foods associated with food allergies or prohibitions. There is no THC in Hemp Hearts--not even one part per million.


CELLULAR HEALTH: Expect many long-term health benefits. Because Hemp Hearts is one of the best balanced sources of Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids, because Hemp Hearts contains only small amounts of saturated and mono-unsaturated fats which can be easily converted to energy, and because Hemp Hearts is also an unsurpassed source of the whole spectrum of required proteins, it promotes vigorous cellular development with diverse health benefits:


Expect reduced cholesterol and blood pressure after three months -- with decreasing probability of stroke.
Expect a reduction in the inflammatory characteristics of many hundreds of diseases.
Expect a more rapid recovery from disease, from radiation treatment and from injury.
Expect improvement in circulation: Diabetics may notice warmer, then less discolored, feet.
Expect a more effective immune system with reduced incidence of all types of disease.



LIFESTYLE: Expect Hemp Hearts to make Living Easy: Hemp Hearts provides great energy, permits weight control without hunger, reduces cravings for inappropriate foods and promotes extensive health benefits, but Hemp Hearts also eliminates any need to be a "food fanatic". Consume the essential nutrients each morning when your body needs "fuel"; Reduce your daily consumption of non-essential sugars, saturated fats and carbohydrates. Don't be confused by those who market high priced products by creating fears about the conventional food industry and who develop and perpetuate obsessions relative to "natural" packaging, "organic" preparations and esoteric biochemistry. Be adaptable: By adding sufficient Hemp Hearts, it is possible to make truly beneficial foods out of much less nutritious food choices. Hemp Hearts is a food ? not a medicine ? but it may be important for certain individuals to have dietary changes monitored by a doctor.
