Hemptiva^® Hemp Protein

Considered by many to be one of nature’s superfood, hemp boasts a long list of health benefits. Hemptiva^® Hemp Protein by Nature’s Ingredients is an excellent source of natural plant-based protein, delivering a complete spectrum of all nine essential amino acids, plus fiber, healthy fats and minerals. Hemptiva^® is packed with proteins that are very similar to the natural proteins found in the human body.

Why is this important? Because hemp provides the correct amino acids in the right quantities and proportions to help our bodies utilize the proteins it needs. Hemp protein consists of more globulins and albumin than any other plan-based protein, which are two of the three most common types of proteins found in the human body. Hemp protein is also a quality source of the amino acids arginine and histidine – required for growth and muscle recovery and repair.

Hemptiva^® also contains the branched–chain amino acids (BCAAs) which are a group of three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine and valine. They are essential, meaning they cannot be produced by your body and must be obtained from food. BCAA supplements have been shown to build muscle, decrease muscle fatigue and alleviate muscle soreness.

Here are five proven benefits of BCAAs:

1. Increase Muscle Growth
2. Decrease Muscle Soreness
3. Reduce Exercise Fatigue
4. Prevent Muscle Wasting
5. Benefit People with Liver Disease

Also rich in healthy fatty acids, Omega 3 and Omega 6, Hemptiva^® is one of the few organic sources of Gamma Linolenic Acid which is another important source of Omega 6. All of these Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) are abundant in Hemp Protein and may reduce food cravings, inflammation and improve circulation.

Hemptiva^® Hemp Protein Powder dissolves easily and has a mild taste, making it a wonderful addition to your smoothie, shake or yogurt. It can also be added to baked goods, pancakes and hot cereals for a boost of protein, fiber and iron. Hemp protein isolates also tend to have superior oil-holding capacity, gel-forming ability, and foaming capacity and ability, expanding its ability to be a fantastic choice for a multitude of applications.
