Review on Nutiva Cold Processed Sustainably Canadian Hempseed by Carl Ferguson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good for what bothers you

Let's get this straight. For those who don't really know what hemp is, you can also say you have a large bag of shredded rope. It's fiber and protein, nothing more, nothing less. For those who think they will really like this taste, no! It's a rope! The rope pushes shit through your body, leaving some protein behind, and it does it for you. It's not blueberry and it's not sweet or tasty. Leaving negative feedback because something that isn't supposed to be tasty doesn't taste good is like leaving negative feedback about matches because they catch fire. This is my tirade about people complaining that a product is what a product is supposed to be. That being said, this product is everything hemp should be, and there are plenty of them. It's ground to a very fine consistency, so it stays suspended in fairly thin liquids. While hemp isn't supposed to taste good, it can be worse, and for hemp, it tastes pretty decent. It's a little grassy, but that's hemp. Mix it up with avocado, banana, some spinach and some stevia and you won't get the taste of hemp. However, you will still feel it in your mouth, so don't worry too much. Learn not to try and chew on your smoothies and it won't bother you as much. It's good enough that it doesn't leave a mark in your mouth or between your teeth like some other brands do. Add a little more liquid than usual as this will dry out your smoothie a bit. You will also feel less hungry over a longer period of time. I also add some chia seeds, hemp seeds and some almonds to give you protein for the whole day and something that stays with you until your next meal. Hemp will cleanse you, and your poop size will increase dramatically during the cleanse. of whatever is left in the colon. You'll feel better and your body will be able to process other foods and nutrients much better, which is especially good if you're detoxing at the same time. Your detox pushes it out of your cells and into your colon, and hemp fiber transports it to where it belongs. blush!
