Anthony's Organic Hemp Seed Protein Powder, 1 lb, Cold Pressed, Gluten Free, Non GMO, Fine PowderUSDA Organic

I'm a certified personal trainer, and a certified yoga teacher. I've spent years coming up with the "Perfect" assortment of supplements to suit my very, very, VERY active life!I had been using Nutiva Hemp Protein for a few years, but the cost kept going up each time I ordered, and it now sits at $64/bag (3lb). That's just prohibitively expensive, and I can't justify it. I looked around for a while at local stores for something comparable, but couldn't find anything I liked.Enter Anthony's!!As of today 3lbs runs about $37. Which is much more palatable that $64!Not to mention....It's better. It's such a fine grind, that it's easier to disguise in a thicker smoothie. Yes, like all hemp proteins, it has a slight grit (think flour), and that's just fine!! It is such a fabulous, whole protein (all essential aminos in one), highly digestible, high in fiber, has a gentle nutty taste that is easy to blend away with creamy smoothies, or even mixed into baked goods (I make banana nut bread with it, and it's delicious!). It also doesn't make me feel bloated like chia or flax tends to. I feel light, and clean, and energetic as I work through my day.I've also noticed some real tangible gains in my workouts. I've put on quite a bit more lean mass over the past two months, than I have in the last two years!I can't say enough great things about this protein powder. It's a game changer. So much so, that I have stocked up! I've got 6 pounds up in my cabinet right now, and plan to keep that as my baseline, because both my husband and myself use this 7 days a week now, blended with some whole egg protein, and either whey or a vegan protein, to make the perfect cocktail!Give it a try. And, be fair! This isn't a water soluble (doesn't dissolve in liquid) protein! It's a whole food with a bit of texture, and a ton of awesome benefits!

This hemp protein powder blends effortlessly into smoothies and shakes. The flavor is mild and earthy but pleasant, and it provides a great source of clean, plant-based protein. It supports my fitness goals while being gentle on digestion, making it a perfect daily supplement.

Tastes a bit like grass. Works okay in oatmeal, if you don't mind the green color. Not grainy. Can't speak to the protein content, but I'll take that on faith .. just not quite what I'm looking for. If I were a vegetarian, or vegan I would buy this product again as it has no added flavors, or sweeteners, so it can be used in savory as well as sweet dishes .. the "grass" flavor is mild, but obvious.

It is perfect. Very powder like and melts into my smoothie well. Tasteless

Love this stuff. It taste like dirt and doesn’t dissolve in water, but unlike your whey it doesn’t give me gas or headaches or taste like chemicals. It’s the only protein that I can never feel in my gut, which is a good thing.

Taste ok and add a few blueberries and coconut milk blend and you have a good protein shake.

Great product and works really great. Thank you!
