About This Product
North Coast Naturals Raw Hemp Protein is an unflavoured protein powder with one ingredient: organic hemp protein. Two heaping tablespoons (30 g) give 15 g of protein, 8 g of fibre and 110 calories, and the 840 g tub holds about 28 servings. It is made in Canada.
What is in a scoop
The label lists a single ingredient, 100% pure organic hemp protein, with no added sugar, flavour, sweetener, colour or salt. Hemp keeps more of the seed than most protein powders, and the Nutrition Facts table shows it. Each 30 g serving has 3 g of fat, including 1.5 g of omega-6 and 0.5 g of omega-3, plus 8 g of fibre, which is 29% of the Daily Value.
The mineral line is just as notable: 260 mg of magnesium (62% DV), 5 mg of iron (28% DV) and 390 mg of potassium per serving. Hemp protein supplies all nine essential amino acids.
Why choose hemp
Hemp protein is a whole-food powder rather than an isolate. It has a nutty, earthy taste, a darker green-brown colour and a slightly gritty texture, and it brings fibre and fat with the protein. People who want the most protein per gram usually pick rice or pumpkin seed protein; people who want fibre and omega fats in the same scoop pick hemp.
North Coast Naturals is moving to a new label design. The tub holds the same single ingredient in either look.
How it compares with other North Coast Naturals proteins
Raw Hemp Protein has 15 g of protein in 30 g. Raw Brown Rice Protein has 17 g in 21 g and Raw Pumpkin Seed Protein has 17 g in 25 g, both with far less fibre. Raw Hemp Protein also comes in a 340 g pouch; the 840 g tub suits a daily shake.
How to use it
Mix 2 heaping tablespoons (30 g) with 250 ml of water or milk, or blend it into a smoothie. Its taste works well with banana, cocoa, dates and nut butter, and it can go into oats, energy balls, muffins and pancake batter. The full directions are under How to Take.
Who it suits
It suits plant-based eaters, people who keep dairy and soy out of their protein powder, and anyone who wants a short ingredient list. It is made without animal products, gluten, yeast or sulfites. The product is packed in a GMP facility that also handles milk, soy and fish (collagen).
