Hemp Protein Powder 1/2 lb bag

$8

Our Hemp protein powder is made from the cultivar CFX-2 hemp seeds that have been pressed to remove their oils, but it still contains roughly 10% of the original fat content

A 1/4-cup (30-gram) serving has around 3 grams of fat, most of which is unsaturated and excellent for heart health. Additionally, hemp seeds contain an ideal 3:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids. A typical Western diet provides an unbalanced 15:1 ratio of these fats, and has been linked to many chronic diseases, including heart disease and cancer. Consuming foods such as hemp seeds, which have lower omega-6 to omega-3 ratios, can help correct this imbalance and may improve heart health.

Since hemp protein powder is less refined than other protein isolates, it contains more fat than most protein powders.
This fat content can be good for people who want to add more heart-healthy unsaturated fats to their diet but may be undesirable for those seeking a lower-calorie protein powder.
Since hemp protein powder contains fat, it should be stored in the refrigerator after opening to prevent the fats from going rancid.

Hemp is rich in omega 3 and omega 6 essential fatty acids that promote energy production and strengthen the immune system, as well as phytosterols which are cholesterol fighting compounds and contains easily digested proteins such as albumin and edestin.

Hemp seeds contain over 30% fat. They are exceptionally rich in two essential fatty acids, linoleic acid (omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3).

They also contain gamma-linolenic acid, which has been linked to several health benefits.

Hemp seeds are a great protein source, as more than 25% of their total calories are from high-quality protein.

That is considerably more than similar foods like chia seeds 'n flax seeds whose calories are 16–18% protein.

Hempseed Protein Powder is packed with vitamins and minerals including magnesium, iron, zinc, calcium, vitamin B, D3 and Gamma Linolenic Acid that prevents and combats inflammation and PMS symptoms. Hemp is free from allergens that affect individuals with intolerances to certain foods. The plant is gluten, sugar, lactose, nut and soy free, making it safe and beneficial for everyone to consume.

A 1/4-cup (30-gram) serving of hemp protein powder contains around 120 calories and 15 grams of protein, depending on the brand.

Available in 1/2 lb bags.
