Hemp seeds provide an excellent source of essential vitamins and minerals. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), a serving of hemp seeds meet the following percentages of the recommended daily value: 50 percent for magnesium and phosphorus, 25 percent for zinc and 15 percent for iron.

These important minerals deliver oxygen to your brain, build and repair cellular tissues and support immune health. Hemp seeds also offer 4 percent of your daily fiber intake, which helps to improve bowel function and increases your feelings of fullness.

Hemp seeds also contain all of the essential amino acids, allowing hemp to serve as a complete source of protein, a complementary for those following the ever growing plant-based movement.
