Will be back in stock April 15, 2013Hemp protein powder is a whole food that contains all the essential amino acids, making it a great gluten free complete protein source high in fibre.
Hemp also contains Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), which is an extremely important Omega-6 fatty acid known for it’s anti-inflammatory, hormone balancing, improved joint function and weight loss properties. With a 3.75:1 ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids, hemp provides an almost perfect balance of essential fatty acids for the human body. It is this ratio that is believed to be ideal in promoting long-term well-being by decreasing the likelihood of developing heart disease, diabetes and depression. Hemp truly is the king of the plant kingdom!
Where does it come from?
Hemp seeds are crushed without heat or chemicals to extract the oil (which makes Hemp Oil) and the remaining protein and fibre is finely milled into Hemp Protein Powder. No chemicals, heat or heavy processing are involved in its production.
