Hood Talk: Good source of Omega 3 for vegans

by admin

What’s a good source of omega-3s for yogis who don’t eat meat or fish?

Hemp Seeds!
One serving of this complete protein has an array of essential fatty acids, including omega-3s, in addition to fiber and several minerals. Plus, hemp seeds don’t contain carbs, which vegetarians and vegans tend to overdo. Sprinkle a tablespoon into a smoothie or on top of a salad for a big nutrition boost.
