Use only tiny plain sprinkles and keep portions occasional. Hemp hearts are energy-dense and high in fat; large amounts can loosen stool. Avoid seasoned mixes and all marijuana/cannabis plant material.
Hemp hearts are hulled hemp seeds from the hemp plant, providing fat, protein, and fiber.
Sold as a soft nutty topping for oatmeal, yogurt, salads, smoothies, and baked goods. Sometimes included in pet products in small amounts.
Flavored seed blends often add salt, sugar, or spices. Some products pair hemp hearts with flax or chia, increasing total fat and fiber load. Rancidity is a concern because seed oils oxidize over time.
