Summary

Although it is powerful enough to meet the needs of elite athletes and bodybuilders, Manitoba Harvest™ has designed their new Hemp Protein Powder with normal health-seeking folks in mind. The growing number of people that are supplementing their diets with protein to maintain optimal nutrition will find Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder a fresh-tasting and easy-to-use addition to shakes, smoothies and other beverages. It has such a delicious gourmet nutty flavor; it can be eaten straight from the jar.

Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder stands out from other hemp powders and flours because of its higher percentage of protein. Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder provides a 50% protein content compared to around 30% found in most competitor brands. They are able to do this by removing excess fiber through a cold milling process. Since Manitoba Harvest™ is an integrated producer of hemp food products controlling production from "seed to shelf," they are able to offer innovative new hemp products like this protein powder, and are better able to ensure freshness and quality.

In addition to the incredible 50% protein content, Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder is rich in Omega 6 & 3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). It also contains vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder is suitable for a controlled carbohydrate diet.

Unlike the isolate protein powders on the market today, Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder is a whole food protein powder. It is cold milled from live viable hemp seeds that are grown sustainably without the use of herbicides or pesticides. Hemp protein powder is free of the enzyme inhibitor found in some other protein powders that can prevent protein absorption and cause gas, bloating and other digestive problems.

To create Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder, hemp seeds are freshly cold pressed to extract the oil. The cold press ensures that valuable enzymes are not destroyed and vitamins, minerals and nutrients remain intact. The pressed hemp meal is then cold milled to separate the protein. All Manitoba Harvest™ products are packaged in containers that are impermeable to light and oxygen and are flushed with an inert gas to seal in the freshness. Manitoba Harvest™'s innovative "Packaged On" and "Best Before" windows of freshness are found on every product.

Manitoba Harvest™ Hemp Protein Powder is competitively priced at $14.99 for a 16-ounce bottle. This remarkable new product was launched recently at the Canadian Health Food Show in Vancouver.

Delicious hemp protein smoothie recipes are listed below. This protein powder can also be used for baking or cooking to enhance the protein content of foods. For more healthy hemp food recipes, please visit www.manitobaharvest.com/recipes.

In February 2004, the Hemp Industries Association won its 2 /4-year old lawsuit against the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). The unanimous decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit permanently blocks DEA regulations that attempted to ban nutritious hemp foods. "Interest in healthy hemp foods is really taking off," says Mike Fata, North American Sales Manager. "We have been developing this product for years and the recent court decision makes the launch very timely," he adds.

Founded in 1998, Manitoba Harvest™ offers healthy staple hemp food products including nutritious Hemp Seed Oil, Hemp Seed Oil Capsules, Hemp Seed Nut (shelled hemp seed), Hemp Seed Nut Butter and Hemp Protein Powder. Their high quality non-GMO hemp seeds are grown in Manitoba, a Canadian Province with a history in hemp cultivation that is recognized as one of the world's top grain producers. Manitoba Harvest™ products are offered nationwide by more than 1,500 natural food retailers, including Whole Foods Markets.
