What is Organic Hemp Protein Powder?
Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder is derived from certified organic hemp seeds (Cannabis sativa L.), offering three protein-rich formulations:
- 70% & 75% Protein: Cold-pressed from dehulled hemp seeds, retaining natural fiber and nutrients.
- 80% Protein: Advanced critical CO₂ extraction for ultra-pure, highly concentrated protein.
Ideal for vegan, paleo, and allergen-free formulations requiring clean-label plant protein.
Key Highlights
- Nutritional Superiority:
- Complete Protein: All 20 amino acids, including 9 essentials (BCAA ≥18%).
- Omega-3/6 Balance: 70%/75% grades retain hemp oil (3-5% fat; omega ratio 1:3).
- Digestibility: PDCAAS 0.91-0.95 (higher than pea/rice protein).
- Clean Processing:
- 70%/75% Grades: Dehulling + cold pressing (temps <50°C/122°F).
- 80% Grade: Critical CO₂ extraction removes phytic acid (<0.1%) and anti-nutrients.
- Sustainability: Carbon-neutral processing; USDA/EU organic certified.

FAQs
Q: Why choose 80% protein over 70%?
A: The 80% variant’s subcritical extraction reduces fat, making it ideal for athletes or low-fat diets.
Q: Is hemp protein safe for nut allergies?
A: Yes! Hemp is a seed, not a tree nut, and our facility is nut-free.
Q: Can I use hemp protein in baking?
A: Yes—70% and 75% work best for moisture retention; 80% is better for dry mixes.
Q: Does subcritical extraction use chemicals?
A: No! CO₂ is non-toxic and leaves zero solvent residues.
Q: Is this protein suitable for keto diets?
A: 80% protein (low-fat) fits keto macros; 70%/75% may require portion control.
