Organic Hemp Seeds:Hemp seeds are rich in plant protein and have all nine essential amino acids needed from the diet for protein synthesis. They also contain omega-3, omega-6, stearidonic acid (SDA), and the rare omega-6 Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). GLA has been shown to help with cholesterol, infl ammation, skin and hair health, balancing hormones, and general heart health.

These nutty and delicious seeds also contain magnesium, fi bre, iron, zinc, and phosphorous.

Organic Oats: Oats are a good source of fi bre and may support a healthy digestive system. They have also repeatedly been shown to help promote heart health.

Organic Quinoa: Quinoa is a gluten-free grain that is high in protein and one of very few plant foods that contain all nine essential amino acids. It is also high in fi bre, magnesium, iron, potassium, B vitamins and zinc.

Organic Chia Seeds:Similar to hemp seeds, chia seeds are small but mighty when it comes to nutrition. A great source of fi bre, healthy fat, high-quality plant protein, magnesium, phosphorus and calcium, chia seeds add texture and crunch to each bite of Hemp Yeah! Granola.

Organic Pumpkin Seeds: Not just for Halloween, pumpkin seeds provide many unique vitamins and mineralsthat make them benefi cial for the diet year-round. Pumpkin seeds are a good source of protein, fi bre, magnesium and iron and are high in benefi cial antioxidants.

Organic Honey: Hemp Yeah! Granola Honey & Oats is sweetened with organic honey for a natural touch of sweetness. The trace amounts of vitamins and minerals found in honey may also have added health benefi ts.

The ingredients in Hemp Yeah! Granola set it apart from other granola when it comes to high-quality, organic ingredients, benefi cial nutrients and HEMP-tastic taste! We’ve harnessed the power of plant protein found in hemp seeds, chia seeds, quinoa and pumpkin seeds to create a snack as nutritious as it is delicious. Sweetened naturally with a crunchy nutty taste, Hemp Yeah! Granola was made to help you feel your best!

Not Your Average Granola

Filling FibreHemp seeds contain 3 grams of fi bre per three-tablespoon serving making them a good source of fi bre in the diet. According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2015-2020, dietary fi bre is considered an under-consumed nutrient. Currently, dietary fi bre intake among adults averages about 15 grams a day. That’s about half the recommended amount of 25-30 grams of protein for the average adult.

1 serving of Hemp Yeah! Granola + 1 cup of raspberries = 18 grams of fi bre = 72% of your daily recommended total dietary fi bre intake

O-M-G Omegas Hemp seeds are a good source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. We need to obtain these fatty acids from our diets and hemp seeds contain a favourable ratio between omega-3 and omega-6. The omega-6 fatty acids in hemp seeds are stearidonic acid (SDA), and the rare omega-6 Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). GLA fi ghts infl ammation and has been proven benefi cial for skin and hair health, hormone health and cholesterol and heart health.

Omega-3s have a number of important functions as well as improving heart health(1), supporting mental health, and supporting infant brain development. More research is needed, however studies suggest that omega-3 may help protect against Alzheimer’s disease and dementia(2), and have a positive effect on gradual memory loss linked to aging.

The Power of Plant ProteinHemp seeds are the only seeds that contain all essential amino acids. One 3 tablespoon serving contains 10 grams of plant-based protein. Hemp Yeah! Granola harnesses the plant protein of the mighty hemp seed and packs 10 grams of protein in every serving, making it a good source of protein for vegans, vegetarians and people following a plant-based diet.

Here’s how Hemp Yeah! Granola stacks up against the competition:

1. Granola #1 - 6 grams of protein per serving

2. Granola #2 - 2 grams of protein per serving

3. Granola #3 - 5 grams of protein per serving

4. Granola #4 - 10 grams of protein and 14 grams of sugar

5. Hemp Yeah! Granola - 10 grams of protein per serving and 9 grams of sugar
