==>Hi Milt. For information on Xanthan Gum and why it shouldn't be

consumed in any products see " Thickening Agents " ;

==>There are so many ways to get a more natural milk, and to obtain

good fats. Hemp contains 55% omega-6, the fatty acid we all get too

much of. The best natural milk substitute is Egg Milk:

==>If the hemp seeds aren't soaked in sea salt water for 7 hours

prior to grinding they will contain phytates that block mineral

absorption and enzymes that interfere with protein digestion.

The only hemp products I would consider buying are clothes or rope.

Here is a new one. Has anyone out there heard of hemp milk? Rice Dream makes it.

Usually in the non dairy section. I found it at top Food and Drug in wash. So

instead of drinking soy milk or rice milk, there is hemp drink. It is suppose to

be a very strong anti-inflammatory. Sounds interesting. Thinking of trying it.

Can't hurt, maybe on cereal? And the cherry juice in strong concentrations is

recommended for gout and related problems, people swear by it.
