Hemp Protein for vegetarian, Vegan & raw food diets

Our Natural Hemp Protein is approved by the Vegetarian Society & Vegan Society. Protein in the Vegan, Vegetarian & Raw Diets

Protein is an essential nutrient, which plays many roles in the functioning of our bodies including building and repairing new cells and muscle tissue.

For Vegans and Vegetarians, often the problem of where they obtain adequate amounts of protein from is brought up, as their diets do not include the more obvious forms of protein such as meat, milk and eggs.The GOOD news is that hemp protein is the most complete source of protein in the plant kingdom, naturally rich in all the essential amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins and dietary fibre. The vegan or total vegetarian diet includes only foods from plants: fruits, vegetables, legumes (dried beans and peas), grains, seeds and nuts, so it is crucial that it contains a high quality plant-based protein. Most ‘complete’ proteins are derived from animals, so hemp protein is an ideal way to ensure a Vegan or Vegetarian diet contains enough easily digestible protein to support an active lifestyle.

How much protein do we need?

The RDA recommends that we take in 0.8 grams of protein for every kilogram that we weigh (or about 0.36 grams of protein per pound that we weigh)

Contains all 10 Essential Amino Acids

Hemp protein is the only plant protein which has a similar nutritional profile to milk, meat and eggs, as it contains 20 amino acids including all 10 essential amino acids.

Easy to digest Protein

It is also very easy to digest unlike some other plant proteins such as Soya, which can sometimes cause bloating. Hemp Protein also, unlike Soya, does not contain Phytic Acid, which can block the absorption of other nutrients.

A Protein naturally rich in Omega 3

The Essential Fatty Acid Omega 3 is an important nutrient which can be diffcult to obtain in a Vegan or Vegetarian diet. Unlike most other plant proteins, HEMP Protein Powder is naturally rich in Essential Fatty Acids such as Omega 3. It contains SDA, a potent form of Omega 3 that is usually only found in fish oil. SDA is easily absorbed by the body and converted into the longer chain fatty acids DHA and EPA. For more information about Vegan & Vegetarian Omega 3 please visit VeggieOmega3.co.uk
