Our food should be our path to health, Healing, & PREVENTION

Hemp Protein:  Protein from hemp contains a favorable amount of glutamic acid, a neurotransmitter that helps people deal with psychological and work-related stress.

Albumin Protein

Hemp contains 35% Albumin, another high-quality globulin protein similar to that found in egg whites; ironically, this is where we naturally see the endocannabinoid Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA). 

Both are highly digestible and a significant source of free radical scavengers. Digestion of the plant or its seeds transforms hemp protein into amino acids, the basic building blocks required for the growth and maintenance of body tissue. 

Albumin is the current health industry standard for protein evaluation in blood serum. The name albumin comes from albumin (etymologically goes back to Albus). There are three different types of albumin, including ovalbumin from egg whites, human serum albumin (HSA), and bovine serum albumin (BSA), with the latter two being ways to measure the health of human or animal blood proteins. 

When hemp protein is digested, it breaks down into amino acids, the fundamental building blocks for body tissue growth and maintenance. What's remarkable about hemp protein is that it contains all 20 known amino acids, including 9 essential ones.

These essential amino acids are crucial because our bodies cannot produce them independently. A diet lacking in these amino acids could potentially lead to degenerative conditions.

Hemp is second only to soy in protein content, but when hemp protein is compared to soy protein, it should be noted that hemp does not contain trypsin inhibitors like soy does. Trypsin is an enzyme that is essential to nutrition, making soy a distant 2nd to Hemp for proteins. 

In addition, hemp protein is free of the oligosaccharides found in soy protein. Since soy is a legume, a bean, its oligosaccharide content can lead to unpleasant stomach upset and gas.

One of our research goals is to find ways to restore the intestinal tract's alkalinity. One way is to eat a high-fiber, plant-protein diet to achieve an optimal body pH level. This will restore the body from an acidic to an alkaline state, which is anabolic in nature and is a highly preventative method of living that, in our research, allows the highest level of release of free radicals from the system while optimizing our bodies with nutrient-enriched health. 

We've found that almost all soy protein is processed with solvent extraction using hexane. Soy is not cold pressed for its oil as hemp is. The high heat used to process soy destroys the protein's enzyme functions. This means that the protein is essentially dead or has lost its electrical charge - essential for its work in our energetic bodies. 

To Explain: Electrically charged means the amino acids carry a negative charge. This negative charge is extremely positive for prevention and allows the amino acid to cross the intestinal barrier.

 It allows your body to uptake nutrients into your bloodstream as amino acids are the building blocks necessary for your body to function. 

They maintain health, build cell tissue, including muscle, and fight off diseases. We need phyto-foods to prevent harm to our bodies in the everyday environment. 

Our Research Initiative has a dual goal: One is to provide everyday people with research-based information about how to live a more proactive, preventative life, and the other is to aim our research at populations who have jobs that risk their health daily.
