Product Description
Product Description
In this work, the author introduces hemp as the social, environmental, political and nutritional ingredient for a sustainable future. Hemp seed has been fundamental to the nutrition of millions of people for thousands of years. It has always been a staple in parts of China, Russia and Eastern Europe, yet the western world has ignored it due to its connection with marijuana, although hemp is not psychoactive. However, as public interest in the benefits of eating organic and naturally derived products grows, demand for hemp is soaring. Author Paul Benhaim, a leading expert in the field of hemp nutrition, writes extensively on this newly discovered ingredient. He considers hemp as a lifestyle choice and looks at its potential as a product for the sustainable future. The book offers information on the nutritional benefits of hemp seed, detailing its world history, present usage and future possibilities. Connections to ancient methods of natural healing and health are focused on, including permaculture, herbs and spiritual nutrition. The recipes are easy to follow, use widely available ingredients and are delicious as well as healthy. This book is for anyone interested in health, nutrition and natural cures. It discusses the importance of making informed choices regarding diet, not only for ourselves, but for the planet.

Most important book in my kitchen,
By D. E. Miller "Givvumhell, Hattie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: H.E.M.P.: Healthy Eating Made Possible (Paperback)
This book is a great reference; totally useful information in a down to earth manner. I wish I would have been brought up on hemp, and I hope the political problems with hemp can be overcome so our children may benefit from growing and using hemp locally. It's obviously written in England, but easily converts to our measurements. There's so much helpful information, I am going to buy several of them for wedding and graduation presents for my young friends just starting out on their own.
