What Are Hemp Seeds?

Hemp seeds are nutritious and deliciously nutty-tasting seeds from the Cannabis sativa plant. They are not the same as marijuana, as they only contain trace amounts of THC, offering impressive nutritional benefits without any psychoactive “highs”.

Hemp seeds are notable for being a complete plant-based protein. They are packed with healthy fats, Omega fatty acids, fiber, and essential minerals such as magnesium and zinc, which are often lacking in modern diets.

Choose from hulled hemp hearts (the creamy and mild soft inner kernel) or unhulled hemp seeds (crunchy, thanks to their fibrous outer shell).

Alive’s whole hemp seeds are carefully pasteurized to maintain their maximum nutritional profile and protect the delicious flavour. Meanwhile, this process ensures food safety and quality for reliable, trusted results.

Hulled vs Unhulled Hemp Seeds – What’s the Difference?

When you look at bulk hemp seeds, you may be wondering what the difference is between hulled hemp seeds and unhulled hemp seeds.

The difference basically exists at the outer shell layer. Whole hemp seeds have their fibrous outer husk in place, maintaining a great “crunch” and additional fiber. Texture-wise, they’re similar to a popcorn kernel.

Hulled hemp seeds are manually processed to remove the outer husk, which leaves behind the soft and creamy inner kernel. These are called hemp hearts, and their softer texture is very appealing for food-grade use. They’re also proportionally higher in protein.

It’s worth noting that hulled hemp seed and unhulled hemp seeds are still both packed with nutrition, and we sell both (along with hemp shells) for all needs. Let’s take a closer look.

Nutritional Benefits of Hemp Seeds

Allive hemp seeds for sale are a complete plant protein, and they have a highly impressive nutritional profile, which we carefully maintain through high-grade, controlled farming, cutting-edge steam-based pasteurization and storage processes.

Fiber:
Fiber is essential (and often sorely lacking) in our diets. Our wholesale hemp seeds are high in soluble and insoluble fiber, which is excellent for dietary health.

Healthy fats:
Organic hemp seeds have a beneficial ratio of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats, which are essential for the brain and heart, and otherwise very difficult to find in food sources.

Complete plant-based protein:
Our organic hemp seed range contains all nine essential amino acids, making them ideal for food-grade use. Complete proteins support muscle growth and repair, and plant-based proteins, such as hemp seeds, are a fantastic alternative to animal-based proteins.

Vitamins and minerals:
Hemp seeds are packed with a wide spectrum of vitamins and minerals in their purest food-based form, including Vitamin E, iron, manganese, zinc, potassium and magnesium.

Antioxidants:
Hulled and unhullled hemp seeds are also high in vital antioxidants, including elusive polyphenols, which have wide-ranging benefits.
