Celebrity Superfoods - Hemp
Thursday, June 14, 2012 - Katherine Feeney
Best Actor Nomination: Hemp
Tom and Katie, Bieber and Britney. Splashed across magazine covers and primetime TV, we get the latest on celebrity weddings (and divorces), weight gain (and loss), and fashion do’s (and don’ts). But we think superfoods deserve the spotlight over celeb gossip. Join us in Celebrity Superfoods for news worth chewing on.
The award nods are in.
We nominate Hemp with Best Actor for his outstanding mental clarity, strength, and ability to master several roles in the movie, The Seed of Life. He skillfully takes on all three roles: oil, hearts (seeds), and protein powder.
Hemp is one of the most attractive celebrities in the world of nutrition. But be careful not to heat up or his alluring character will be destroyed.
His mental clarity comes from his wealth of essential omega fatty acids, which are best stored in the fridge or freezer - they are extremely sensitive to light, heat and oxygen. In addition to mental clarity, omega fatty acids are anti-inflammatory, are required for a healthy immune system, and help produce and balance hormones. It’s very important we take in sources of omega fatty acids because our bodies are unable to produce them.
His award winning strength is attributed to being a complete protein. Hemp contains all 8 essential amino acids in a highly digestible form. Hemp also contains Chlorophyll, Vitamin E for your skin, B vitamins for energy and a healthy immune system, and folic acid which is an extremely important nutrient leading up to and during pregnancy.
Cast you vote for Hemp by adding hemp protein powder to your smoothie, hemp hearts to your cereal or salad, or hemp oil in a smoothie or a healthy salad dressing. Even massage his oil into your kale leaves.
So dreamy.
