Unlock the Power of Superfood Hemp This Winter Season to Keep Illnesses at Bay

Hemp is an ancient sacred plant that has a long history of use throughout the world. Revered for its multiple health benefits, hemp is well-known for several therapeutic and medicinal properties. In fact, it has been proven to be a superfood that can boost our immunity and do wonders for our health.

Although many of us enjoy the winter season to the hilt as it is a respite from the killing heat of summers, it nonetheless has the tendency to make us prone to virulent illnesses. Hence, a robust immunity is what can keep us sheltered from the danger. Low immunity means our body isn't internally geared to battle new threats that the changing weather may throw at us. Making hemp a part of our daily diet means half the battle against diseases is won.

Hemp can be consumed as seeds, powder, cooking oil and even salad dressing. Hemp Horizons,India's first hemp seed processing and contract manufacturing company, has released a new range of food products that leverage the inherent benefits of hemp as a superfood. Hemp, in any form, delivers big on nutrition. Not only does it contain plant-based protein, fiber and healthy omega fats, but it is also loaded with zinc, a mineral that plays an integral role in supporting and making the immune system better prepared to fight against illnesses that arise especially during winters.
