Re: hemp - BJ

[Guest guest]

Hey BJ - do your shakes come out lumpy with the little seeds not quite

ground? I just tried making hemp milk today (no fruit, just shelled

hemp seed, water and a little vanilla and agave) but it didn't blend

well... I don't have a real blender though, just a food processor but

I would think it's the same.

On a side note, got a voice mail from my new doc today saying my

retest for parasites came up negative... *interesting*... wonder if I

never had the bloody thing! All those antibiotics.. I should have

gotten a second opinion long ago (though from whom I dont' know). She

says I'm hypo too, haven't been hypo in quite a while, so we'll need

to adjust my meds. Wonder if it's the iron I've been taking or maybe

the harsh New York winter.

I buy the organic hemp protein powder so I don't have seeds to grind

or blend. The kind I have, currently, on hand is Living Harvest

Organic Hemp Protein (cold milled protein powder from raw hemp

seeds). Its got 13 gms of protein and 9 gms of fiber per serving

along with 600 mg of Omega 3.

I've never tried making the milk, but if you have a recipe I'll try

it to see how it turns out. Actually, I could drink it like milk

instead of a smoothie for something different.
