    Hemp Heart Seeds. Hemp seeds are rich in healthy fats and essential fatty acids. They are also a great protein source and contain high amounts of vitamin E, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron and zinc. Hemp seeds are a great source of arginine and gamma-linolenic acid, which have been linked with a reduced risk of heart disease.Hemp seeds are rich in healthy fats. They have a 3:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3, which may benefit skin diseases. In some cases, this may provide relief from eczema and its uncomfortable symptoms.About 25% of the calories in hemp seeds come from protein. Hemp seeds contain all the essential amino acids, making them a complete protein source.

    Figured I would try this for those “on the go” times. It tastes like a product that came out when I was a kid called “Nutiment”.... tastes exactly the same but 30g protein. kse098i8trad.jpeg

    I bought a Withings smart scale a couple months back while walking through the living room and saw it on the "View Your Deal" segment of The View for $49, I think they cost nearer $100 but I can say they are Very well made and sync up through wifi with the Withings app and myfitnesspal. Measures stuff like weight, bmi, fat %, bone %, muscle % and water%.

    My Go To lifesaving products for the most critical period (IMO), Post Op. #1- Unjury Chicken Soup flavored powder. A great product that tastes good and goes down easily when we need protein and want to feel like we're getting real food. I then graduated to mixing cream of chicken, mushroom, celery etc. to enhance it more. #2- Syntrax Nectar, which tastes good mixed with water and goes down just as well. #3- Quest Bars, a perfectly balanced, quality product.
