Hemp protein as a source of protein and fiber
Our hemp protein is carefully produced from organically grown hemp seeds in raw food quality. Thanks to its high protein content of around 50 g per 100 g, it is an ideal addition to the daily diet of bodybuilders and athletes. It is also particularly recommended for vegetarians and vegans, as it is an ideal substitute for animal protein sources. Hemp protein is also a good source of fiber due to its hemp protein content. Hemp protein is vegan and lactose-free. It is also free from preservatives, colorants and flavorings. The hemp seeds from which our hemp protein is made are naturally gluten-free. However, we cannot technically guarantee that it is one hundred percent gluten-free (<0.5mg). The protein may contain traces of cereals containing gluten.
Origin and history
Hemp, with its distinctive leaves, is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the world and originally comes from Central Asia. Shortly after its discovery, it was also cultivated in Europe. The active ingredient tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has made hemp famous as a narcotic but also as a medicinal plant. Today, numerous varieties with a low THC content are cultivated, especially in Europe there are numerous varieties that are almost free of THC. At Ölmühle Solling, we use one of these hemp varieties from controlled organic cultivation for the production of hemp oil, hemp flour and our hemp protein. Our range also includes untreated, unpeeled hemp seeds.
Hemp protein contains valuable hemp oil
The residual content of valuable hemp oil in the protein powder is 12 g per 100 g on average. It has an optimal ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids of 3:1. The content of polyunsaturated fatty acids makes our hemp protein a high-quality and valuable ingredient for health-conscious connoisseurs.
Hemp protein and its ideal amino acid profile
The protein is not only valuable because of its content of hemp protein and polyunsaturated fatty acids: the protein-rich powder can do even more: a real special feature is its amino acid profile, which is ideal for the human body. The body needs proteins to build muscle. The proteins contained in our hemp protein powder contain all the amino acids that are essential for humans in an ideal ratio. They can be absorbed and utilized very well by the body.
Usage
With its mild and nutty taste, our hemp protein is ideal for preparing protein shakes and bars and for enriching smoothies. The protein powder is also suitable for baking protein bread, pancakes or brownies. Tip: When baking, it combines well with hulled or unhulled hemp seeds.
We recommend a daily intake of around 30 g of hemp protein.
Once opened, the protein powder should be consumed quickly and always stored in a cool, dark place away from oxygen.
