Hemp Yeah! Max Protein Powder

So after going back and forth one trying to find a non-dairy option for a protein powder, I decided on the Hemp Pro 70 because it had the highest amount of protein for a plant based protein powder and it also came highly recommended from Trim Healthy Mama. It has 20 g of protein per serving. For some reason, I expected it have a mild taste. Granted -this is my first time trying anything other than a dairy protein powder and I don't have anything else to compare to, but I made my first shake with the Hemp Pro 70 with 1/2 serving of it to give it a go yesterday. Well, it tasted like wild grass (what I'd imagine wild grass would taste like). Luckily a friend who already uses Hemp Powder, recommended adding cocoa powder--which really helped to mellow the grassy taste. So right now, enjoying a second shake with the Hemp Pro 70 and also upped the protein serving to 3 TBS (working my way up to a full serving of 4 TBS). Really enjoying it and the grassy taste isn't overwhelming. I have now had several shakes with the Hemp Pro 70 and I'm used to it and I love my morning shake with it! Shake with Hemp Protein Powder 1 cup of unsweetened coconut milk (can use almond milk or water) 2 tsp of chia seeds --let sit to gel if you wish, then add remaining ingredients 1 scoop of Hemp Pro 70 Powder (or less) 2 TBS of cocoa powder 1.5 tsp of THM Sweet Blend (use more if using truvia, probably around 4 packets) or sweetener of choice. 1 cup or so (really whatever I can fit into my single serve blender) of your FROZEN berries of choice (frozen so you don't need any ice) Blend and Enjoy

I was looking for a plant-based protein powder with super clean ingredients that had complete proteins. This fits the bill perfectly. To be honest, I was scared of how bad it would taste given how healthy it is but it’s not bad! It is a bit chalky and nutty, but it’s very tolerable given it doesn’t have any artificial ingredients. Absolutely worth the trade off. I blend it with cold soy milk and half a chilled banana and it’s pretty tasty! Would even be better with peanut butter if you don’t mind the extra calories. You could also add things like maple syrup or honey or frozen berries. Those all make it pretty tasty but are not necessary. I also asked about the ingredients in the Q&A section, and I appreciated the prompt response from the manufacturer.

I've been waiting for a finer ground, easily dissolved, low fiber hemp protein for years and it's finally here. This is the only protein powder that does not trash my digestive system. It's earthy, yet creamy flavor adapts to just about anything you mix it with. I'm not a nutritionist, so I'm not going to be like everyone else on the internet and write as if I am. However, it's said that hemp protein has the most ideal proportions of amino acids for the human body. Also, it's a plant protein, which is awesome because that's gotta be way healthier than getting it from mammal parts, right? ProTip: This protein contains a high omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. Since it's said (by nutritionists) that it's best to keep this balanced in favor of omega-3, I recommend you incorporate a tablespoon of flax seed oil for every scoop of this protein. This will balance out the fats and five you whatever benefits that gives you. Since this is my single top favorite product on all of amazon, I'll add my basic recipe that I alter frequently. It's a smoothie that gives you biologically available nutrients at a balanced ph while not causing problems with stomach acid or containing migraine triggers (and tasting good at the same time) here we go: juice apple and carrot pour 1.5 cups apple carrot juice into blender add a few chunks freshly peeled aloe meat 2 tablespoon flax seed oil spirulina or other healthy algae powder acai powder weigh out two servings (60 grams) hemp protein turn on blender add protein bit by bit take a probiotic and drink your smoothie feel really good repeat daily, altering raw fruit ingredients

Fair warning, this protein powder tastes nothing like the seeds!I purchased the product after comparing the serving size/price to hemp seeds that are marketed by the same brand.The seeds provide great protein,have a pleasant taste in oatmeal, smoothies etc.HOWEVER,this product was exactly the opposite. I'm not a novice to raw or natural products.I drink roughly 3 cups of matcha green tea daily no almond milk or sugar added.The protein powder doesn't have an herbal taste....it literally tastes like oregano. I tried the shake with almond milk and peanut butter and later with a banana as well.The oregano is extremely dominant. I've made multiple shakes with just hemp seeds no banana and loved it. It seems like a budget friendly protein powder and clearly has amazing nutrients but the taste is extremely odd.I noticed the balanced protein powder does not include oregano as a preservative so I'll probably try it next. UPDATE:I'm in love with the oregano!The taste actually becomes bearable after a week.Perhaps the oregano is less concentrated throughout the container. I mix 4 tbsp in 8oz of unsweetened almond milk and blend roughly 30 seconds.No bloating, gas and amazing recovery after resistance exercise!

There is a review that says that it does NOT taste like dirt, but to me it really DOES taste like dirt. This doesn't work as an addition to yogurt or cottage cheese because of it's taste and color. Having it in a smoothie is bearable.

I am a vegetarian body builder. I have tried many types of plant protein supplimentation. Hemp is the gold standard of the plant kingdom, much like eggs are the gold standard of the animal kingdom. Their amino acid profiles are both very complete and similar. Most hemp proteins have a massive amount of fiber though and if you are taking in as many grams of protein as recommended for body building, you will be way too regular I'll put it that way. This 70% formula has less fiber and more protein. In one lb/16oz container there are 15 servings of 21g of protein 0g fiber. It is superior for that alone and is well worth the extra cost per/gram of protein. It disolves easily in water, you can hand mix with a spoon for 1min and your good with not one clump. It is sweeter than normal hemp. Hard to explain, it is a very mild taste compared to other hemp proteins. It's like the bitterness and overpowering herb flavor gets filtered out when the fiber gets removed. I'm glad someone made hemp a pleasure to drink instead of a chore! Hope this review helped.

This tastes terrible, I mean absolutely terrible. I even tried to mix with chocolate shake and it was still horrid. They didn't claim that it tasted good so I don't hold that against the company. It was labeled as unflavored so it was pure from the seed. It left an aftertaste that was also hard to get rid of.

This part is old. Please see below for revision... I can't say much for the nutritional value, I've only used it twice, but what have I gotten myself into? I cannot figure out a way to make this stuff taste good. This stuff does NOT dissolve well. Mixing it into yogurt is difficult too since it has about the same consistency as flour. I really wanted to believe in this product, but the taste is beyond terrible. Will update this review when I figure out a good way to consume it. Attached is my attempt at mixing a serving with a container of Greek yogurt and a mix of raspberries and blackberries. An update. If you try hard enough, you can get used to and somewhat subdue the overpowering taste! I use the following recipe: 6 tbsp Manitoba Harvest Hemp Pro 70 Protein 1 heaping tbsp crunchy peanut butter (good legume protein and nice flavor/texture) 2 cups (roughly) chocolate almond milk I used to use an unsweetened chocolate almond milk and added in 12 raspberries (or 6 raspberries, 6 blackberries) for sweetness, but the packaging for the unsweetened Almond milk at my supermarket is more expensive. I'm satisfied with the product and have started a subscription. It's a lot easier on my stomach than whey and I think the plant-based nutrition has actually helped with my weight-loss goals (but that may just be because there is less sugar and I normally just eat an apple, instead of my breakfast cereal, after taking the hemp since it's so filling). Regardless, I recommend this product!!
