So here we are taking a closer look at the seeds of it all when comparing hemp seeds vs flax seeds. You may ask, “How is there any difference, they are both seeds?”

Hemp Seeds vs Flaxseeds – But First, it is About Flax Seeds

Flax seed is known also as linseed or common flax. It is a flowering plant that is cultivated for the purpose of providing food and a fiber crop. But it is a very sensitive crop so has to be grown in countries of the world that have temperate climates.

The flax seeds are generally a reddish brown in color when they are mature.  Flaxseed also contains the most important essential omega 3 fatty acid. This may be part of the reason it is so effective as anti-inflammation as well as having similar phytoestrogens to the hormone estrogen.

Observing the Health Benefits

There are a variety of reasons to consume flaxseeds because they are abundant with health benefits.  Some of the more common are for diabetes and high cholesterol which are two conditions that plague people of all ages. More serious health conditions for flaxseed are kidney issues particularly with those diagnosed with lupus.

There are many other things for which people use flaxseeds but there is no scientific evidence or clinical trials so medical professionals will not make claims to their patients. Another item I will note here is that the flaxseeds have a very hard outer shell which is difficult to penetrate with your teeth and thus harder to digest. It will limit the benefits that you can expect from it.

Get you a type of grinder that will convert the hard seed to a fine ground power. This you will be able to digest.

Hemp Seeds vs Flaxseeds – Second it is About Hemp Seeds 

Now let’s look at the infamously popular hemp seeds.  As with flaxseeds, hemp seeds also provide a nice source of omega 3 fatty acid that is so important to heart health.  Hemp seeds have flown under the radar of most because the big thing with hemp has been CBD. As a matter of clarity, hemp seeds do not have any CBD in them but that does not mean they are devoid of nutritional value.

Hemp seeds have a high amount of health benefits and are very nutrient dense. Thirty grams of hemp seeds have 9 grams of protein, 15 grams of fat and that is the good omega 3 fatty acid. They also have 14 grams of calcium. There are many other nutrients but those are the highest in content.

Benefits of Hemp Seeds

Hemp, in general, is great for resolving chronic disease and other conditions. Hemp seeds are no different.  They are full of antioxidants and that is so good for so many conditions and also for maintaining wellness.   And, yes, hemp seeds are high in fiber. Three tablespoons of hemp seeds will provide you one gram of fiber. This makes for better digestion and colon health.

Hemp seeds provide protection against neurodegenerative diseases. This is so important for all those concerned regarding Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease and many other neurodegenerative conditions.  They can lower cholesterol levels and blood pressure.

“All Points of View”

Hemp seeds vs flaxseeds may not be which is better but more about how much good they both contain. Seeds of a wide variety are a good source of fiber and omega 3 fatty acids but these two seeds we’ve been dissecting are both headliners in all health benefits. Hemp seeds are more digestible than flaxseeds because of that hard outer shell so do not forget to grind them before popping a handful.
