What are Organic Hemp Hearts?
Organic Hemp Hearts, also known as shelled hemp seeds or hemp kernels, are nutrient-dense superfoods derived from the seeds of the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa). These raw, gluten-free seeds are cold-pressed to preserve their natural oils, amino acids, and antioxidants. Available in four distinct green skin percentage variants (<5%, 5-10%, 10-15%, 15-20%), our hemp hearts cater to diverse culinary and nutritional needs while adhering to strict organic farming standards.

FAQs
Q: What is the difference between the green skin percentages?

A: Yes! All variants are low-carb, gluten-free, and rich in plant-based protein, making them ideal for keto, paleo, vegan, and vegetarian diets.
Q: Do the green skins affect nutritional value?
A: Higher green skin percentages slightly increase fiber and mineral content (e.g., magnesium and iron) but do not compromise the core nutrients like protein or omega fatty acids.
