What Our Bodies Need:
Hempseed, which looks like sesame seed and has a nutty flavor, is a rich source of essential fatty acids and protein, much like flaxseed, though with fewer omega-3's. Nutiva's hemp powder can be stirred into juices, smoothies and batter mixes: one serving provides 11 grams of protein, a whopping 14 grams of fiber, 120 calories and 3 grams of fat (mostly omega 6's, some omega 3's and negligible saturated). It also provides some vitamin E, iron and calcium.

Though protein powders are not something everyone needs, they can be invaluable to people with increased protein requirements, such as older people and athletes, or those suffering with chronic and debilitating illness.

Unlike many soy protein powders, our hemp powder meets U.S. Department of Agriculture standards for organic labeling because it's not processed with hexane (a byproduct of gasoline production), not genetically modified and not sprayed with pesticides or herbicides.

Whole Nutrition
Hempseed is considered by leading researchers and medical doctors to be one of the most nutritious food sources on the planet. Shelled hempseed is packed with 33 percent pure digestible protein and is rich in iron and vitamin E as well as omega-3 and GLA. A recent report funded by the Canadian government states that hemp protein is comprised of 66 percent high-quality edistin protein, and that hempseed contains the highest percentage of this of any plant source. Hemp also contains three times the vitamin E contained in flax. Unlike soy, hemp is not genetically modified, and it doesn't contain the anti-nutritional qualities commonly found in soy.

Essential Fatty Acids. Because the human body produces no Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), it is important that EFAs be consumed on a regular basis. It is estimated that more than 90 percent of Americans take in too little of one of the most important EFAs--omega-3--which is found in flax, walnuts, deep-water fish, and hempseeds. EFAs are the "good fats" that doctors recommend as part of a healthy, balanced diet. The quality of omega-3 is vital, and can be diminished by oxygen, heat, and light. Store them in a dark, cold environment such as a refrigerator.
