Farmers, under a special license, are now growing industrial hemp with the proviso that they must not produce plants that have more than 0.3% of the psychoactive ingredient.

"Freshness is particularly important when selecting hemp foods, including hemp oil, hemp seed, and hemp protein powder. A deep green color, pleasant smell, and sweet, nutty taste are indications of a recent harvest. As with any crop, be sure to choose hemp that has been grown without the use of herbicides and pesticides. pumpkin seeds Pumpkin seeds are rich in iron, a nutrient some people have trouble getting enough of, especially if they don't eat red meat. Anemia, a shortage of red blood cells in the body, is commonly caused by low dietary iron or by strenuous exercise." - Brendan Brazier, The Thrive Diet: The Whole Food Way to Lose Weight, Reduce Stress, and Stay Healthy for Life (Get the book.) "Natural proteins with a relatively high pH include sprouts (any kind—nuts, seeds, legumes); algae such as chlorella and spirulina; grasses such as wheat, oat, and barley; cooked legumes (though cooked legumes are not as alkaline-forming as sprouted legumes); flaxseeds and hemp. hemp protein, for example, is not isolated and so remains in a relatively natural state, retaining its alkalinity. Also, hemp is raw, another factor contributing to its higher pH. Daily consumption of protein with a relatively high pH (more alkaline) will minimize the body's acidity." - Brendan Brazier, The Thrive Diet: The Whole Food Way to Lose Weight, Reduce Stress, and Stay Healthy for Life (Get the book.) "Because of its easy digestibility and absorption, hemp protein is a good replacement for other proteins, and, in fact, you will need to consume less protein if you choose a high-quality protein like hemp: Quality, not quantity, is paramount. A high-quality complete protein such as hemp is instrumental not only in muscle and tissue regeneration but also fat metabolism. Protein, once ingested, instigates the release of a hormone that enables the body to more easily utilize its fat reserves, which in turn will improve endurance and facilitate loss of body fat." - Brendan Brazier, The Thrive Diet: The Whole Food Way to Lose Weight, Reduce Stress, and Stay Healthy for Life (Get the book.) "The ground flaxseed and hemp protein supply a small amount of protein, just enough to assist the carbohydrate in the muscle glycogen-regeneration processes. The small amount of hemp oil (or EFA Oil Blend, recipe on page 210) in the recovery drinks helps in the repair of soft-tissue damage, that inevitable by-product of exercise. These foods, especially once blended, are easy for the fatigued body to digest and utilize. Once an hour has passed since eating your post-exercise snack, it's time for a complete, nutrient-rich meal." - Brendan Brazier, The Thrive Diet: The Whole Food Way to Lose Weight, Reduce Stress, and Stay Healthy for Life (Get the book.)

"I also recommend hemp protein from companies like Nutiva and Ruth's Hemp Foods. Other sources of plant protein are good. The only one I don't recommend is isolated soy protein because of some of the effects of soy protein. The only soy products I recommend are fermented, non-GMO soy. If you combine this with a low-glycemic diet, hypoglycemia will almost always disappear within a matter of a few weeks. Physical exercise also greatly helps hypoglycemia, as do substances that slow the digestion of carbohydrates. That includes eating chia seeds, or even taking some vinegar before each meal." - Mike Adams, Natural Health Solutions (Get the book.)

"Superfoods (spirulina, hemp protein, blue-green algae, maca, bee pollen, wolfberries and goji berries) are also valuable for their extraordinary protein and nutrient content. I have worked with several world-class athletes and they have found great benefit from my green drink formulation. It consists of: kale, celery and cucumber put through a juicer. The kale provides the heavy minerals necessary to nourish the muscles (its alkaline elements neutralize lactic acid build-up); celery replaces the sodium lost through perspiration; and cucumber provides excellent fluids and soluble fiber." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.) "Fats or protein (green vegetables, spirulina, hemp protein) can be used to thicken the blood if blood sugars rise too quickly. Green leaves (especially fresh green vegetable juice) and superfoods eventually provide the body with the alkaline protein and minerals it needs to restore itself to a healthy metabolism. Beneficial supplements that I have noted over years to be helpful with pancreatic conditions include: supplemental enzymes (i.e. Beauty Enzymes) and MSM (methyl-sulfonyl-methane) powder." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.) "The secret to gaining strength and weight by eating a raw plant-food diet is to eat green-leafed vegetables and plant fats together - and fewer sweet fruits - as well as by adding superfoods (spirulina, raw hemp protein, maca, etc.) into one's diet. More non-sweet fruits may be included as well. Consuming these foods in a blended state is recommended. My own experience proved this true. I found it worked for thousands of others. Test for yourself and see, Think of the gorilla: pound per pound the strongest land mammal." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.) "Plant protein (superfoods) such as hemp protein, goji berries, algae, bee pollen, etc. may be eaten with light green vegetables such as lettuce and celery. They also may combine well with oils and sweet fruits in smoothies. This works as long as they do not produce gas/flatulence. The fiber-bound plant proteins, such as sprouted grain and sprouted legumes, should be eaten with alkaline green vegetables to balance out their acids. These fiber-bound plant proteins typically do not mix well with fats/oils or sweet fruits." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"An important aspect of hemp seed protein is a high content of arginine (123 mg/g protein) and histidine (27 mg/g protein), both of which are important for growth during childhood, and of the sulfur-containing amino acids methionine (23 mg/g protein) and cysteine (16 mg/g protein), which are needed for proper enzyme formation. hemp protein also contains relatively high levels of the branched-chain amino acids that are important for the metabolism of exercising muscle. Animals, especially birds, instinctively prefer hemp seeds." - Dianne Onstad, Whole Foods Companion: A Guide For Adventurous Cooks, Curious Shoppers, and lovers of natural foods (Get the book.)
