Aytime my mother made me waffles for breakfast, she accompanied it with a nice cold glass of vitamin d milk over ice. It was creamy, medium-bodied, solid white and delicious. Not at all like that wimpy 2% stuff I saw kids at school drink out of miniature cartons. This was the real deal and it was made to make me strong.

Hemp is regarded as one of the most nutritionally dense and medicinally beneficial plants in the world. Although just a few short years ago it was taboo to discuss anything related to hemp, cannabis, or marijuana. 

Hemp is a complete protein, it’s high in fiber, fatty acids, omega vitamins, vitamin A, potassium, magnesium, it’s an anti-inflammatory and also acts as an antioxidant.
