Why should I choose Hemp Protein over Clean and Thriving?

Our new Hemp Proteins have brought a whole new meaning to plant-based protein. Our specific formulas not only contain the combination of three different vegan proteins powders (hemp, bio-fermented pea and sacha inchi) for a more complete amino acid profile but each flavour has been specifically designed to have a unique health benefit.

But the real deciding factor in the big decision making process is what the intended purpose is of the protein.

• If you need a family friendly protein that is suitable for kids, pregnant and breastfeeding women and anyone else just needing little protein boost then Thriving Protein will be your go to.
• If you are after a high protein training partner that is going support all of your fitness goals to help you tone, train and repair then Clean Protein will be your best fit.
• Lastly if you need protein in your diet but want some added health benefits keep reading and we’ll tell you which Hemp Protein will best suit your needs. 

Which Hemp Protein flavour should I choose?

Three unique blends, three unique benefits. So which one is right for you?

• Well firstly our Creamy Vanilla flavour is our easy peasy way to increase greens into your diet daily, minus the greens taste. If you struggle to stomach greens powders, the creamy vanilla will keep you nourished and assisted to maintain acid-base metabolism (pH balance) with one serve of greens in every serve of protein plus the added benefit of Zinc.
• Second in comes a little bit of inner balance found in our Salted Cacao Maca flavour. Made with wholesome raw peruvian cacao with traditional adaptogenic herbs Maca and Ashwagandha, this protein is going to help bring a little bit of balance into your everyday and makes it the perfect addition to a stressless dietary regime.
• Last but not least our Beauty Berries flavour is our vegan answer to our most popular product, Collagen Beauty. As Collagen Beauty is made from collagen, unfortunately it is not suitable for consumption by persons on a vegan diet. However we don’t think it’s fair that our vegan friends miss out on the beauty benefits so we’ve created Hemp Protein Beauty Berries with Vitamin C and Zinc plus a whole heap of protein and antioxidant containing berries to give your body the exact nutrients it needs to support natural collagen production and aid in the prevention of free-radical damage to skin cells. 

Is Hemp Protein suitable for me if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?

Due to the Australian Food Act 2006 under which all of our foods here in Australia are regulated, unfortunately our Hemp Proteins come under a classification of a Formulated Supplementary Sports Food as we have added the mineral Zinc for a multitude of health benefits it provides. Due to this classification we have also needed to add the necessary warning statement to our packaging that our Hemp Protein products are not recommended for consumption by persons under 15 years of age or pregnant women unless under the supervision of a physician or dietitian. This is only due to the addition of the small amount of the mineral Zinc to the product, which does provide many of the benefits that our Hemp Proteins are so great for. What we  suggest is that if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or wanting to give it to your children you seek the advice of your primary physician.

Is Hemp Protein suitable for my children?

As per the previous question unfortunately we cannot recommend our Hemp Protein range to children under the age of 15. However our Thriving Protein range has been designed specifically to address this issue and contains a multitude of wholefood vitamins and minerals necessary to support growth and development whilst being perfectly suitable for consumption from the age of 12 months . Therefore if you don’t desperately want your children on Hemp Protein we suggest going for our Thriving range. If you would really like to give our Hemp Protein to your children and you are comfortable with all of the ingredients we merely recommend speaking to your primary physician before doing so.

Is Hemp Protein going to make me high?

Hemp does come from the same species of plant that the recreational drug marijuana is made from Cannabis spp. However there is one very big important difference between marijuana and hemp and that is the THC content of these two plants. THC is the active component found in marijuana that produces the ‘high’ experience. Hemp is bred without this active component and therefore it is impossible to get high from Hemp and seeing this is what our Hemp Proteins are made from.. it is impossible to get high from our Hemp Protein Range. 

Should I choose Collagen Beauty or Hemp Protein Beauty Berries?

Collagen Beauty is a product that was designed to contain specific collagen peptides made utilizing specific technology that ensures that collagen deposition occurs in hair, skin and nails. These collagen peptides have been isolated, manufactured and trademarked in germany after going through multiple clinical trials to verify their efficacy (ability to actually work). Therefore we always promote our Collagen Beauty as the holy grail of hair, skin and nail health but as it is Collagen it is not vegan.

But this is where Beauty Berries comes in, Beauty Berries contains all the necessary nutrients the human body needs to support the production and maintenance of its own naturally occurring collagen whilst helping to protect skin cells from the inside out with antioxidants. But beauty Berries won't actually provide any collagen itself. Therefore if you aren’t vegan, for best results we say stick with Collagen Beauty. 

Can I have both Beauty Berries and Collagen Beauty?

Abso-freaking-lutely! Collagen Beauty and Beauty Berries work perfectly together! Collagen Beauty provides entirely new collagen to the body, whilst Beauty Berries will help to maintain, protect and stimulate the body's own production of Collagen. So it’s like a double whammy of Collagen goodness just without relying solely on one or the other to do all of the jobs required to keep our natural Collagen stores at their best. Just bare in mind that both products are predominately protein based so you might like to consider what contribution taking the two will have on your daily intake of protein and if this suits your daily needs.
