We've all grown up hearing the phrase "You are what you eat." As we progress, humans are becoming more aware of the things they're putting into their bodies. The time invested in reading food labels these days is transforming the health of future generations.

A special recipe for Humming Hummus from MagicalButter.com executive chef Joey Galeano combines three health-enhancing ingredients, resulting in a potent triple-threat snack or appetizer. Harnessing the power of healthy saturated fats from chickpeas and coconut oil, then fusing it with the all-natural gifts of cannabis, is culinary genius. The recipe below offers up a whole new perspective on a Mediterranean staple. And, you'd better believe you'll be able to feel the magical difference!

Welcome to cannabis-infused coconut oil

Coconut oil contains short term medium-chain saturated fatty acids (MCFAs), a healthy form of saturated fat very different from deadly trans fat (found in margarine and other hydrogenated oils). MCFAs are considered "good" saturated fats because the liver converts them into immediate energy for muscles and mind rather than into body flab, without spiking blood sugar levels.

Thanks to its chemical structure, coconut oil is also among the very best vehicles in existence for dissolving cannabinoids. Fusing a food known to lower blood pressure with the powerful healing effects of cannabis lets you serve up a healthy side of awesome and experience the healing power of nature's bountiful gifts. Enjoy!
