Stone ground Organic Hemp Flour 500g - Gluten Free -
Stone ground Organic Hemp Flour 454g - Gluten Free - Hemp Seed Flour is a complete source of all 20 known amino acids including the 9 essential amino acids which our bodies cannot produce. Approximately 65% of the protein in Hemp Seeds is made up of the globulin protein, Edestin, and is found only in Hemp Seeds. Edestin aids digestion, is relatively phosphorus-free, and considered the backbone of the cell’s DNA. The other one third of Hemp Seed protein is Albumin, another high-quality globulin protein similar to that found in egg whites. Hemp protein is free of the tryspin-inhibitors - which block protein absorption, and free of oligosaccharides - found in soy that cause stomach upset and gas. Hemp Seed Flour also provides an excellent supply of antioxidants (Vitamin E), carotene (precursor to Vitamin A), phytosterols, phospholipids and a number of minerals including calcium, magnesium, sulfur, potassium, phosphorus, along with modest amounts of iron and zinc. Hemp Seeds also provide a good source of chlorophyll.
