Ask the Diva: Will Hemp Milk Make You Fail a Drug TestQ. I have been reading a lot about the benefits of hemp and would like to add it into my diet. I am concerned that consuming these foods might make me test positive on a drug test. Do you know if consuming hemp milk or seeds could show on a drug test? If so, how much would I have to consume?

Hemp milk and other foods contain no THC, the active ingredient in marijuana. According to my sources, consumption of hemp foods will never cause a failed drug test.
