There is a lot of controversy surrounding whey vs. hemp protein. For years, Whey has been tooted for being one of the most bio-available protein source. However, more recently, research has shown that whey protein in not readily digestible by the human body, creates intestinal toxemia and sludge, bloating and may actually increase your waistline. An inefficient intestinal tract reduces amino acid and any other nutrient absorption into your body and cells. Therefore, the more protein you consume, the more it will store in your gut building up and releasing (smelly) toxic waste. And if it's sitting in your gut, chances are, it isn't getting to your muscles. In addition, whey protein powders are laced with a plethora of chemical additives and non-digestible sweeteners in efforts to make the product more palatable.

So what to do?

Whey Protein Power

If you are training hard, a protein supplement is a convenient way to ensure you are receiving adequate amino acids and nutrients for muscle repair and development. But you want to choose a supplement of high quality that is easily digestible and loaded the nutrients and enzymes required for most efficient protein synthesis. One to try: Hemp Protein.

Why Hemp?

It's natural - There are no additives, chemicals or toxins that will interfere with absorption or compromise optimal health and nutrition. And the THC is negligible, so there will be no stimulating effects. It's a complete protein - contains all essential amino acids for muscle repair, improved metabolic activity and overall wellbeing Bio-available - hemp is an easily digestible, plant-based, whole food supplement that is high in enzymes, healthy bacteria and essential fatty acids necessary for muscle growth, recovery and fat burning. Because most hemp proteins are not heat treated (unlike whey), they contain enzymes (electrical charges) which are necessary to synthesize amino acids into new muscle. Essential Fatty Acids - Hemp protein has the optimal 3:1 ratio of omega 6 and omega 3 fatty acids - the fat that actually helps to burn fat. It also contains GLA which is crucial for hormone balancing. Alkalizing - plant based protein contains chlorophyll and alkalizes your body to help you stay healthy and maintain a healthy PH level. High in fiber and friendly bacteria - controls blood sugar levels, curbs hunger and cravings and helps to eliminate intestinal sludge AND bloating. A healthy and clean intestinal tract results in more effective absorption and nutritional efficiency.
