In hemp flour we find both structural and biologically active proteins. Structural proteins include collagen, creatine and fibrogen, which are the main constituents of bones, skin, hair and ligaments.
The protein in hemp meal contains all 8 essential amino acids without which our diet would be seriously impaired: arginine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine.
This flour is also a rich source of vitamin E (good for the nervous system) and contains essential fatty acids: Omega 9, and Omega 6 and Omega 3 in the optimal ratio of 3:1, which help keep blood vessels clean and regulate lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, preventing cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
