With more research and acceptance, the realities of the uses of hemp are being recognized. The food section of the National Defense Resource Preparedness executive order defines hemp as a food resource and we should all include it in our current diet. Why you may ask?

Hemp has a very high protein content as well as the essential fatty acids that our body needs to maintain its healthy defences.

Executive Order — National Defense Resources Preparedness March 16, 2012

(e)  “Food resources” means all commodities and products, (simple, mixed, or compound), or complements to such commodities or products, that are capable of being ingested by either human beings or animals, irrespective of other uses to which such commodities or products may be put, at all stages of processing from the raw commodity to the products thereof in vendible form for human or animal consumption.  “Food resources” also means potable water packaged in commercially marketable containers, all starches, sugars, vegetable and animal or marine fats and oils, seed, cotton, hemp, and flax fiber, but does not mean any such material after it loses its identity as an agricultural commodity or agricultural product.
