How does hemp work?
Hemp possesses a strong nutritional profile, rich in antioxidants, viatmins & minerals
Hemp seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, such as omega-3 and omega-6, and it also contains vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Its fulsome nutritional profile makes it an effective anti-inflammatory & immune booster.
Outside of this, the benefits associated with hemp are largely based on anecdotal evidence. As with all hemp-derived products (including CBD and THC), literature is still developing in this area and its effects are not conclusive.
Nonetheless, users state that they feel a sense of calmness after taking hemp. This may assist those who experience "coffee jitters" or are cognisant of the effects of overindulging in caffeine.
Does hemp contain THC or CBD?
No cannabinoids are present in hemp products
It does not contain any cannabinoids like CBD or THC.
Cannabinoids are present in the flower of the cannabis plant (not the seeds). Be wary of any hemp products claiming to have cannabinoids, as they are likely misinformed.
What does this mean?
Looking for a healthy boost to your morning routine? Try following our hemp protocol below
To incorporate hemp into your daily routine, we have set out a protocol based on the clinical evidence to date below.
Recommended Protocol
15 mg per kilogram of body weight
Start with this dosage and slowly increase to 30mg per kilogram of bodyweight if needed. However, this should be enough for most people. One serving (10 grams) of the Hemp Blend has 100mg of hemp. Consider supplementing your hemp coffee with additional high-quality hemp extracts to meet your daily dosage.
Daily
For best results, take hemp daily. That's why we have conveniently infused it directly into your cup, so you won't have to change your morning routine.
Morning to early afternoon
Although the timing is not critical, consider taking this earlier in the day (to ensure the caffeine does not interfere with your sleep).
Try it for yourself!
