Hi there and thanks for taking the time to ask us this. We get this question a lot, but rest assured our hemp products won’t make you fail a drug test. Allow me to explain… Hulled hemp seed is not to be confused with marijuana. Hemp & marijuana come from 2 different types of plants. We have had our hemp products tested by two independent labs to determine the level of THC in the food. Both labs are able to test down to one part per million and report finding no detectable THC. So to be absolutely clear, eating hulled hemp seeds does not lead to intoxication or a positive drug test. True, all hemp plants have delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) but the residual level in hulled hempseeds used for food is extremely miniscule — usually measured in 1 or 2 parts per million.

To clarify, all hemp plants have delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) but the residual level in hulled hempseeds used for food is so miniscule — usually measured in 1 or 2 parts per million - that intoxication is a very remote possibility.

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on December 11, 2011 - 12:01.

Depending on your location, viable hemp seeds may or may not be legal. In the United States, for instance, hemp seeds are required to be sterilized [Title 21 (Food and Drugs) of the U.S. Code, Chapter 13 (Drug Abuse Prevention and Control), Section 802 (16)]. I wouldn’t imagine Nature’s Path making different “versions” of its cereal depending upon the different hemp laws, so it’s likely all sterile, and will not grow.

No there are no drug effects in hemp seeds. There is no thc in hemp seeds. You can eat Hemp Plus until your stomach hurts and you will not test positive on any drug test. Personally, I can’t believe this question was asked. Its amazing how much our Government has brain washed people into thinking Marijuana or hemp seeds are bad for you. I think they should just stick to alcohol testing at oil rigs. Alcohol is a far, far more dangerous drug than all illegal drugs combined.

Hi Ally & Luke’s Mom! Thanks for reaching out to us. You’ve asked some really great questions. First of all, kids can totally eat this cereal. Rest assured, this granola includes hulled hemp seed which is not psychoactive and is not to be confused with marijuana. In fact, hemp & marijuana come from 2 different types of plants. Just to be certain, we have had our hemp products tested by two independent labs and we are confident in saying our foods will NOT cause involuntary intoxication. As for your second question, there are tons of nutritional benefits to hemp: it is very nutritious with up to 35% protein & all 9 essential amino acids. They are high in unsaturated fats – the good fats – including the omega-3 fatty acids. They also contain a wide variety of vitamins & minerals. Hope that answers your questions.

For what it’s worth, almost everything you typed here is wrong. While it’s true that the seeds do not contain THC, every other part of the Marijuana/Hemp plant does contain THC at varying concentrations. And the seeds are the fruit that comes from the flower of the female plant. Male plants do not produce fruit. Ever.

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on January 15, 2012 - 19:52.

While it’s true the hemp plant may contain thc, it’s like O’doul’s containing alcohol. It’s so watered down that the small amount doesn’t trigger my allergic effect (recovered alcoholic here), it also doesn’t trigger any type of a buzz. I call it barley pop. The important part here though is the seeds which are legally being sold are in accordance with the law. The same propagandists who have demonized this plant with fear tactics say it’s perfectly okay to sell this product for consumption and they don’t even place any age restrictions on it. There is more alcohol in food extract or your favorite brand of mouthwash then O’doul’s, but there are age restrictions for purchasing n.a. beer because it’s for direct consumption. In all honesty; as someone who has been to outpatient counseling for drug abuse, detox, rehab, probation, house arrest, and aa, I can tell you even the super high potent medical grade Cail buds which are loaded with thc are a much safer drug then alcohol. Alcohol is the only drug whose withdrawals can kill you; same chemical build up on the brain as found in heroin addicts, you can quit for 50 years but the day you pick one up you begin right where you left off as the chemical buildup never diminishes and the bigger the build up, the farther along the addiction. It’s the easiest thing I’ve ever quit. Also, pot is not a gateway…. the fact people have to obtain it through shady back alley dealers who also offer a variety of other products is the gateway.

Hi Brittany and thanks for reaching out to us with your question. This is not a gluten-free granola due to the oats. The issue lies within the risk of cross-contamination with gluten which would most likely happen in the fields or during the milling process. At this time in North America, there isn’t a sufficient supply of organic gluten-free oats. Therefore, I can’t recommend this granola to you if you’re gluten-free.
