Smoothies are a favorite way to start the day or recharge after a workout—but adding organic hemp hearts—also known as hulled hemp seeds, hemp kernels, or shelled hemp—takes them to a superfood level.

Packed with complete plant-based protein, omega fatty acids, and essential minerals, dehulled hemp seeds provide sustained energy and enhanced nutrition without altering the flavor or texture of your smoothie.

Why Add Hemp Hearts to Smoothies

Complete Plant Protein
Three tablespoons of hulled hemp seeds deliver about 10 grams of complete protein, supporting muscle repair, satiety, and overall wellness.
Healthy Fats
Rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (ideal 3:1 ratio), hemp kernels promote heart, brain, and skin health.
Micronutrients
Shelled hemp seeds provide magnesium, zinc, iron, and vitamin E, giving smoothies an extra nutrient boost.
Easy Digestion & Neutral Flavor
Unlike other seeds, organic hemp hearts blend smoothly, offering nutritional benefits without the gritty texture.
