HEMP FOODS
The essential amino acids from which protein is made and the essential fatty acids (EFAs) work together in our bodies to produce life's energies. ALL ESSENTIAL FATS AND AMINO ACIDS ARE FOUND IN HEMP SEED. You just can't have one without the other.
Proteins and
Omegas 3 and 6 combine through metabolic process to form lipoproteins, a whole family of organic compounds that make up every part of our bodies.
Lipoproteins form the haemoglobin in our blood and are responsible for moving fats throughout our body. Every one of these elements are made from amino acids and essential fatty acids. Without the correct balance, the cells in our bodies don't form right!
It is so important to balance Essential Fats and Proteins. Getting enough protein and fat isn't a problem. Most people actully consume too much protein and/or fat. The key is the
quality of proteins and quality of fats we consume and the amounts as one can overdose on either causing toxicity. This has been known for over a hundred years. A researcher by the name of Lebedow in 1888 discovered when he fed dogs either 100% protein or 100% fat or nothing. The dogs fed concentrated diets actually began to die before the dogs fed nothing.
A balance of healthy Protein and Omegas must work together to perform their magic.
Hemp Seed contains all known essential fats and all know essential amino acids for protein production currently known to us. Additionally, the ratios of amino acids and essential fats found in Hemp Seed is considered to be suitable for long term use.
Stress, Essential Fats and Amino Acids (Proteins)
Dealing with stress in a positive way is physically assisted by a healthy protein/fat connection. The chemistry of this union is the catalyst for life energy flow. As we enter stressful situations, our metabolism and energy needs increase; leading to a need for an increase in essential nutrients also. In a busy, fast moving society, stress is applied from many directions and in many ways. Our bodies are uniquely designed to cope with stress on ever increasing levels, and a healthy body maintains a reserve of potential energy for such stressful periods. Unfortunately, the same circumstances that cause stress, also reduce our ability to eat healthily. It just never occurs to us that the symptoms may be caused by an internal chemical imbalance. Starting with the essential fats and amino acids will assist your body to handle the daily stresses.

Hemp Seed Meal is the by-product of cold-pressing hemp seeds to produce hemp oil. It is a 100% natural plant product suitable for human consumption where legal.
Planet Hemp takes the
Hemp Seed Meal and uses two different technologies to process the
Hemp Seed Meal into a
Hemp Flour,
Hemp Protein Powder and fermented/activated hemp seed.
No chemicals are used in these methods.
The processes used have been chosen because they maintain the nutritional profile of the hemp seed without destroying the superior enzymes or amino acids, or turning the essential fats rancid.
The benefits of incorporating the nutritional qualitities of hemp seed, hemp seed by-products and hemp foods into your diet are many.
Food Standards Australia New Zealand FSANZ recommended the nutritional benefits of Hemp Seed in their report in 2002.
Australian legislation is yet to reflect these recomendations.
