Which Plant-Based Protein Is The Best?
There are a variety of vegan protein products on the market, including rice, pea, soy, and hemp. If you are looking to increase your protein intake, then hemp is arguably the best plant-based protein source for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, hemp is one of the few proteins that contain all nine essential amino acids. The other plant-based proteins listed above, with the exception of soy, lack at least one amino acid, and many people have allergies to soy where hemp allergies are quite rare. Moreover, hemp is an exceptionally clean plant-based protein requiring no herbicides or pesticides, unlike soy.
Let’s take a closer look at why hemp protein powder should be your go-to choice for plant protein.
Great Source of Fiber
Fiber is essential for a healthy diet. Fiber helps reduce the risk of diabetes, some types of cancer and heart disease. It also helps you maintain a healthy weight. Foods high in fiber help you feel full and sated. A 30 ounce serving of Humming Hemp Protein Powder contains five grams of fiber
High In Iron
Iron helps your body transport oxygen from your lungs throughout your body. Humming Hemp Protein Powder provides 45 percent of your daily iron needs (based on a 2,000 calorie diet). Soy protein powder supplies just 15 percent of the iron that your body needs daily. Pea protein is a little better, supplying approximately 35 percent, but still less than hemp.
Full Of Magnesium
Magnesium helps regulate nerve and muscle functions. It also helps control blood sugar levels and blood pressure. Hemp protein contains 80 percent of your daily magnesium. Just one serving supplies almost all of the magnesium you need.
How To Use Humming Hemp Protein Powder
Since hemp protein blows the other plant-based proteins out of the water when it comes to nutrition, you probably want to add more to your diet. Here are some easy ways to incorporate Humming Hemp into your daily meals:
- Mix it in with your smoothies
- Add some to your oatmeal
- Sprinkle it on your cereal
- Add it to homemade energy bars
