Organic Hemp Protein 74 Percent

Hemp Protein - 74% - ORGANIC, High Quality, Complete Protein extracted from hemp seed hearts, with the fat removed. Offered by Getty Equine Nutrition!

Choose Hemp Protein 74% when you only want protein. It is low in fiber, with virtually no fat and no sugar or starch.  

Organic Hemp Protein 74% is a nutritious whole food.

When hemp seed hearts are ground into a meal with all of the fat, sugar, and starch removed, it becomes a protein isolate with a small amount of fiber remaining. The protein is complete and of high quality in a highly palatable form. This is very important to your horse because he requires enough essential amino acids (building blocks) to synthesize body proteins, including muscle, hooves, blood proteins, antibodies, skin, vital organs, hormones, and more. An important aspect of hemp protein is that it is a quality source of the amino acids arginine and histidine, both of which are important for growth, and of the sulfur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine, both of which are needed in the production of vital enzymes, as well as keratin, the protein found in hooves and hair.

If only one source of protein is fed (as with one type of grass hay), your horse will not get sufficient amino acids to stay healthy and peripheral tissues such as skin, hooves, and joints, will show signs of malnutrition. Hemp protein offer all ten essential amino acids (those that must be in the diet) in proper proportion to be best utilized by the body. The quality of protein found in hemp protein is so high in fact, that it rivals soybeans.
