Navitas Naturals Hemp Protein Powder, 12 Ounce Pouches

Unlike other suppliments and health foods I've got I actually make a point of using this every morning, the protein is just great and my body can definitely tell when I haven't had this, just adding a tablespoon or two to whatever I'm having for breakfast makes me feel so much better, it's quite filling and the feeling lasts for hours.I don't particularly care for the taste it adds to my smoothies so I generally don't add it to those anymore. I really love using it to make berry pancakes, muffins and scones; I just sub out some of the flour and I've got an awesome breakfast (oat flour makes the best hemp baked goods by the way, the two flavors really work nicely together). I've actually gotten in the habbit of subbing out some of the flour in pretty much all the recipes I do. I really love this brand of hemp powder and I will most definitely continue to buy it.

I like the taste of this in my steel cut oats, or any other hot cereal in the morning. I stir it in, and my cereal turns green- no big deal. I add some shaved almonds and blueberries, maybe some cinnamon, and this makes a good breakfast with enough protein to hold me until lunch. The quality seems high, the packaging is nice, but the price probably could be lower.

I put two tablespoons (two-thirds of what the package describes as one serving) in my morning oatmeal the day after I received it. It turned the oatmeal an odd greenish-black color, but I did not find the slightly herby taste at all unpleasant. I felt great for a couple of hours, and thought I'd found a good way to add more protein to my largely vegetarian diet.A little over two hours after I ate breakfast, I started to feel very warm and then became violently ill. I had chills for a few hours afterwards and spent most of the afternoon resting and gradually starting to feel better.Since I didn't eat anything else new and no one around me has had similar symptoms, I can only attribute this to a very bad reaction to the hemp protein powder. No one else mentions having such a reaction, so it may be too unusual for anyone else to worry about. But please, if you're going to try this product, start with little and make sure you can tolerate it before trying a full dose!

I no longer try to use this in my shakes/smoothies; it's too grainy and not so pleasant. It's OK in my morning oatmeal, but I won't buy it again. I'm sure it's good for me, but it doesn't dissolve and it isn't smooth. It could be incorporated into baking, too, I'm sure, but why? There are other healthy things that are similarly healthy, better textured, and not green.

After discovering the protein powder I had been using for so long had wheat grass in it (I am gluten intolerant and think this ingredient was just recently added), I switched to the Navitas Naturals Hemp product. This is a great protein powder without all of those additives that I usually have sensitivities to...

I make a lot of fresh juices in my new nutri-bullet - this hemp powder and bananas make for a nice sweet, frothy, yummy, and healthy mixture. I was impressed to read about the health benefits. Buying this from Amazon turned out to be cheaper than buying from my local health food store. Good deal.

I like the hemp protein, but I don't use it as much as I do the Navitas cocao powder. It is a good source of protein, however, and I do use it when I make vegetable smoothies.

This has more protein than the whey protein I was previously using in my healthy smoothies. So now, I use a mix of half whey and half hemp protein. I recommend trying it.
