Hemp protein - valuable source of protein and fibre
Our hemp protein is gently produced from controlled organic hemp seeds in raw food quality. Its high protein content of about 50 g per 100 g makes the protein an ideal supplement to the daily diet for bodybuilders and athletes. In addition, it is especially recommended for vegetarians and vegans because it is an ideal substitute for animal protein sources. At the same time, hemp protein is a valuable source of fibre. It is vegan, lactose- and gluten-free and free from preservatives, colouring and flavouring agents.
Origin and history of hemp
Hemp, with its distinctive leaves, is one of the oldest crops in the world and originates from Central Asia. Shortly after its discovery the plant was also cultivated in Europe. The active ingredient tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has made hemp known as a intoxicant but also as a medicinal plant. Today, many varieties with a low THC content are cultivated. Especially in Europe, there are numerous varieties that are almost THC-free. For the production of our hemp products at Ölmühle Solling, we use one of these hemp varieties from certified organic farming, hemp flour and hemp protein. Next to hemp protein, we also offer hemp seed oil, hemp flour and unpeeled hemp seeds.
Hemp protein contains valuable hemp seed oil
Protein powder contains 12 g of valuable hemp seed oil per 100 g. 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 valuable ingredient for a health-conscious diet.
Hemp protein and its ideal amino acid profile
The protein is valuable not only because of its high content of protein and polyunsaturated fatty acids: Its amino acid profile is ideal for the human organism. The body needs amino acids to build muscles. Furthermore, hemp protein contains all essential amino acids in an ideal proportion and the body can absorb and utilise them easily.
