What is Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder?
Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder (Cannabis sativa L.) is a high-purity plant protein derived from cold-pressed hemp seeds. Available in three specialized concentrations:
- 70% Protein: Full-spectrum nutrient retention
- 75% Protein: Balanced purity and functionality
- 80% Protein: Ultra-refined via supercritical CO₂ extraction
All grades preserve heat-sensitive compounds (<45°C processing) and deliver complete protein with all 9 essential amino acids.

FAQs
Q: Is your Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder allergen-free?
A: Yes, our Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source.
Q: What is the difference between cold-pressed and supercritical CO2 extraction?
A: Cold-pressed uses mechanical pressure to separate the oil and protein, preserving nutrients. Supercritical CO2 extraction is a more advanced, solvent-free method used for the 80% protein to achieve higher purity and concentration by separating compounds using CO2 under specific temperature and pressure.
Q: How should I store my Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder?
A: For optimal freshness, store your Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Sealing the bag tightly after each use is also recommended.
Q: Can I use Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder if I have allergies?
A: Hemp is generally considered hypoallergenic. However, if you have specific allergies, please consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating any new supplement into your diet.
Q: What is the recommended serving size?
A: Serving sizes can vary based on individual dietary needs and protein requirements. A common serving size is 20-30 grams (about 2-3 tablespoons), but it’s best to adjust based on your personal goals.
