Default Hemp Protein?

Does anyone out there have any personal experience with or an informed opinion about organic hemp protein? This is becoming a more-widely available form of protein and I'm just curious how it compares to other vegetarian sources - like pea, rice, soy, etc. I have of course read the product literature from various manufacturers but I'm trying to find a more objective source of information.

Thanks for any input.

HH

Interesting finds, ST.

Does the protein that you take contain hemp in it?

How's that protein working out for you?

thare are more studies on pubmed.. but I had to go to pick up my son. and I've been watching what is happening with wall street and debates on CNN..

I really liked the protein powder that Sally recommended, - even though I would like it a bit less sweetened.. or not sweetened at all (I prefer to do my own sweetening). I do plan to get it again: https://www.vitacost.com/Olympian-Lab...F-710013032676

I like the fact that it has the greens and protein and some fiber, and doesn't taste bad. This makes it something that perhaps I can use to fix something for my husband, or son (well, I can dream).

I really like the whey powder that you recommended, but I am finding that I do better with more fiber, so lately, I have been upping the vegetables, and looking at the fiber in everything. so, I'm thinking of trying adding some inulin when I use the whey. These 2 would go together.

I am now using the Manitoba Hemp powder... great for fiber: 7 gms per tablespoon.. but it tastes like dirt. LOL.. I guess it is ok for shakes. I have just been adding water and gulping it when I need something fast.. and it definitely takes away the hunger. But I might try another brand. I don't mind "tasteless". I don't have to have it taste wonderful. I prefer something I can blend with other stuff anyway.

anyway.. I've lost about 12 lbs on my "weird little diet" as I call it.

so, the hemp, I think it has definite possibilities. But I wish there was more information on it.
