Hempseed Protein Powder

Hemp Seed Protein Powder is a plant-based protein product extracted from hemp seeds, rich in essential amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids, dietary fiber, and other nutrients. It is suitable for vegetarians, fitness enthusiasts, and those with weak digestion to supplement protein. Moderate intake is advised to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.

Source & Composition

Hemp seeds are derived from the Cannabis sativa plant. The protein powder is produced through dehulling and cold-pressing processes, containing 30%-50% protein with all 9 essential amino acids in a ratio close to human needs. It also includes Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids (3:1 ratio), vitamin E, and minerals (iron, zinc), offering balanced nutrition and high digestibility.

Nutritional Benefits

1. High-Quality Protein: High digestibility (PDCAAS score ~0.61), ideal for lactose-intolerant or soy-allergic individuals.

2. Heart Health: Rich in alpha-linolenic acid (Omega-3 precursor) to lower cholesterol and reduce inflammation.

3. Gut Support: Contains 10%-15% dietary fiber to improve bowel movement and relieve constipation.

4. Antioxidant Protection: Vitamin E and polyphenols combat free radicals and delay cellular oxidation.

Target Users & Scenarios

• Vegetarians: Compensates for animal protein deficiency, supports muscle and immune health.

• Fitness Enthusiasts: Post-workout recovery (pair with carbs for better absorption).

• Sensitive Digestion: Easier to digest than animal protein, reducing stomach burden.

• Elderly: Combats cardiovascular risks and muscle loss with protein-fatty acid synergy.

Comparison with Other Proteins

• Soy Protein: No soy isoflavones, safer for hormone-sensitive individuals.

• Pea Protein: Both plant-based, but hemp offers higher fatty acids and fiber.
