Are you a vegan or vegetarian fed up with soy?

Do protein powders upset your stomach?

The greatest proportion of protein in Nutiva Hemp Protein is called Edestin, the type most easily used by the human body. Edestin comprises 65% of the protein in hemp seeds, offering benefits for immunity and communication between cells. Edestin also aids digestion and is considered the backbone of our cells' DNA.The remainder of hemp's protein occurs in the form of albumin, which ranks close to Edestin in terms of bio-availability and quick conversion to amino acids.The combination of these two types of protein in one superfood seed make Hemp Protein the closest match for our human protein needs.
Compare this to soy and whey protein powders, which may cause digestive disturbances leading to bloating and flatulence. Soy naturally contains substances that inhibit the enzyme Trypsin, interfering with digestion, and even very low-lactose varieties of whey can still contain enough lactose to upset sensitive stomachs. Neither soy nor whey contains Edestin protein.

Are you interested in whole, raw, live foods?

More and more people are realizing the benefits of eating food that is "live," raw, or unheated, so that its life-giving enzymes are still active. Hemp Protein is manufactured using a patented cold-processing technology that keeps the enzymes, natural antioxidants, vitamins and minerals intact. This makes it easier for the body to recognize as "real food," and so makes it easier to assimilate. It also contains chlorophyll, a natural detoxifier!
