Review on Nutiva Cold Processed Sustainably Canadian Hempseed Sports Nutrition by Lauren Miller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good and Healthy Best Protein

This powder is derived from plant seeds and therefore contains both fiber (4g per 3 tablespoon serving) and protein (10g per serving), making it more nutritious (most people need more fiber than protein (tbh). But you sacrifice protein to get fiber so that's not the best solution if you're trying to load up on protein. Also, 10g of protein per serving isn't much. It also contains a a few grams of super beneficial omega fatty acids, which is great. It has a mild but distinct botanical flavor which I like, but it doesn't feel like a shake or your typical whey-based powder. You'll probably want to make a smoothie out of this it or mixed with flavored yoghurt instead of just mixing it with milk.It also has a little bit of sugar: 7g per serving (although this is less than many powder r or meal replacements like Soylent). It also has a bright appearance and an intense green color, so if the appearance of your yogurt or smoothie is important to you, it may not be suitable. It doesn't dissolve so thickens whatever you add it to and has little texture. Generally, these are crushed seeds, which affects flavor, color, and texture. But that also makes it a lot better for you than most other highly processed protein powders that provide nothing but protein (and a bunch of extra nutrients, mostly multivitamins). If you're not overly taste sensitive and want more than just protein, this is a very good product.
