Hemp Vs. America's Obesity Issue

America has been the fattest country in the world for a while now and there has not been a lot of progress to solve this issue.  Many are not aware that Hemp foods are great sources of natural fatty acids which promote the body's health.  Breads, cereals, oils, and many other food products can be made from Hemp.  Also hemp product's are packed with vitamin E, protein, GLA, and Omega-3.  If Americans took the time to realize that the Hemp plant has so much to add to culture, then maybe our issue with obesity would be solved.

  1. i find the hemp plant really interesting cause before today i never really heard anything about it. But if you really think its that benefical it never hurts to create more awareness by writing to the commissioner of agriculture (idk who is in charge..lol) or something and they just might work with your idea
