Why hemp: high protein content
ü Contain all of the essenTal amino acids that the body can not make itself
ü High in branched amino acids (~40%) o Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine • comprise 30% of the amino acids in muscle
ü High in Arginine -‐ which is the dietary precursor to nitric oxide which plays a key role in the health of the cardiovascular system.
ü Muscle protein turnover in athleTc performance ü Body invigorator/anT-‐faTgue effect

Hemp Fa^y Acids -‐ Health Effects
ALA intakes of 0.53 to 2.8 g/d reduced the risk of: ü Cardiovascular disease events by 39% (Djousse et al., 2001) ü Fatal ischemic heart disease by 45% (Hu et al., 1999) ü All-‐cause mortality in upper quinPle of intake (Dolecek et al., 1992) ü Each 1g/day intake associated with 47% reducPon in CVD risk in low
seafood eaters (Mozaffarian, 2005) ALA reduces inflammatory biomarkers SDA – increases levels of blood plasma EPA (James et al. 2003) GLA may reduce Diabetes (Horrobin, 1997)
ü improvement in nerve flow GLA may aid in weight control (Schirmer, MA and Phinney, SD. 2007) Levels of LA, ALA and GLA increased in skin lipids aker long temr hempseed oil usage
ü Significant reducPons in transepidermal water loss (TEWL) values, skin dryness and itchiness
ü Decrease in use of dermal medicaPon
Hempseed and Heart Health
o Plasma ALA and GLA levels significantly elevated o ALA levels significantly elevated in the hearts
“Dietary hempseed appears to provide significant cardioprotec4ve effects due to its highly enriched PUFA content.”
