Three tablespoons of Hemp Seeds supply eleven grams of easily assimilated protein. If you’re looking to build bulkier muscle and add additional protein to your diet, one of the best ways to do that is through a hemp protein shake combined with weight lifting exercises. Let me know if you are interested in my powerful plant-based PROTEIN smoothie.
When used in shakes, hemp will not cause bloating or gas (signs of poorly digesting foods), which is frequently the case with whey and other processed proteins. Soy protein is not a good choice, it contains very high amounts of phytic acid, which prevents you from absorbing minerals. Hemp seeds don’t contain phytic acid. Raw protein powders derived from brown rice, sprouts and other non-soy plant foods are also good choices.
