Review: Good,protein dense vegan protein - I need to make the protein in my diet count because I don't eat a lot of food or pick at food all through the day. Hemp protein is one of my main protein sources. I generally have this once a day,in a larger-than-single-serving of hot Old Fashioned Oats oatmeal. Some people prefer it in smoothies but to me smoothies are generally on the sweet side,more like a dessert than something that tastes like regular food. I rarely,if ever,crave anything sweet. Passing on a fast,wholesome,high protein oatmeal recipe. It won't win a beauty contest but it tastes good,is nutritious and hits the spot as a filling,"sticks to the ribs"one bowl snack,meal,or light meal,depending on how much you make for yourself. The serving of oatmeal I typically make is,without measuring anything,somewhere between one and a half and just under two servings. I use water and Old Fashioned Oats,brought to a boil(in a Correlle bowl in the microwave. Correlle has NO LEAD in it. Lead is a concern in plates,dishes etc. Lead is a toxic heavy metal). I add about a measuring-spoon-teaspoon of extra virgin coconut oil to the very hot oatmeal(usually just the tip-half of the teaspoon I'm going to eat with,coated with coconut oil,which is solid at all but hot, or very warm,room temperature. It is liquefied in warmer temperatures). I bury the spoon with the coconut oil in the middle of the hot oatmeal. It gives it a nice buttery flavor. Then I sprinkle on turbinado sugar(made by Sugar In The Raw,I get it by the 2 pound box size,that you can find at an affordable price at Walmart). Then I sprinkle cinnamon over that. Then I add between one and two tablespoons of hemp protein. I pour UNSWEETENED organic soy milk over that. (Unflavored also. I mean "original flavor". Vanilla soy milk and vanilla flavored anything,to me is just yucky. Vanilla is NOT the thing to buy if you're not familiar with using soy milk. Maybe it's good to some people. I don't like it at all though). And I top all of that with a few twists of sea salt from a salt-mill or salt grinder(I buy coarse ground sea salt,which I put in a salt-mill. Like a pepper mill,but for salt). I find it works out much better if it turns out soupy,not thick and pasty. Meaning making a more watery as opposed to thick,pasty oatmeal,and adding enough soy milk(or almond milk or whatever you prefer as a vegan milk),so the final result is more of a soupy oatmeal. And the tiny amount of coconut oil makes a big difference. You don't really need it,but it harmonizes the flavors. It is actually very tasty. But I think your results will be disappointing if you end up with a thick,gloppy bowl of stuff with powdery piles of hemp protein. I think I'd pass on that,myself(my first bowl of this that I got the idea for,and made,was very much like the disaster I just warned you about. Thick and gloppy with piles of powdery hemp protein. I later developed the very acceptable and edible version,which is the best way to make it)It's sweet-salty tasty and nutritious. And can also be a very healthy replacement for those sweet salty high-calorie-no-nutrition snacks. This particular hemp protein doesn't really have much of a flavor or a taste to it. Just pointing that out because you're using it for the protein content,not the flavor. The hemp protein with fiber has more of a nutty flavor. My other main protein source is brewer's yeast. I don't recommend putting it in oatmeal though. (!!). A fast easy high protein one dish meal I make every day is cooked pasta(which has NO mention of containing traces of EGG in it. Usually pasta from Italy is not made cross contaminated with egg pasta or noodle products);cooked pasta added to a concoction of hot water(enough water to make a sort of paste or "gravy" with the other ingredients added to it,so it coats the pasta nicely without being too powdery or watery according to the amount of pasta you're making. I make one serving. But you would adjust the amounts up,to more quantity,if you were making it for a family meal or to have on hand for a few days,ready - made and kept refrigerated) );hot water(to dissolve the spices in),onion powder,garlic powder,sea salt,olive oil,Old Bay Seasoning and about 2 to 3 tablespoons of brewer's yeast(price-shop to compare. The stuff that is fairly expensive is not all there is. There are affordable brewer's yeast brands/package sizes available). The cooked pasta is stirred into that. You have to adjust the seasoning to suit your taste. Brewer's yeast has a cheesy taste,but usually you need to doctor-it-up with other spices,like I do,to make it tasty. This is my typical first meal of the day that I take with all the supplements I take (vitamins,minerals,antioxidants, phytonutrients,joint support and "ladies past 40" female support supplements like soy isoflavones and evening primrose oil). I take supplements because I couldn't eat all of the food you'd need to eat to get all the things your body needs. I'm not sure anyone could. Plus they say the food we have today doesn't have the same nutritional value it did 20 years ago. Probably due to the fast growing and chemical processes,fertilizer etc,used in industrialized growing/food production. Vegan-bashers have said a vegan diet must not be good if you need all of those supplements. But non-vegan diets are bad because of the high calories and cholesterol. And people using non-vegan diets aren't getting all the vitamins,minerals and nutrients they need either,if they don't take supplements. Not to mention things you might need specific to your own body,like joint support,female support,prostate support,thyroid support;there are even foods and supplements people with hyperthyroid(overactive thyroid)can benefit from. I have hypothyroid(underactive thyroid)myself. But,according to my test results,which aren't always accurate anyway, my thyroid is not underactive enough that I should have a prescription. I was tested in 1999 and haven't gone to a doctor for that or any other reason,since. I haven't been to a doctor since 1984. But I keep myself healthy,have treated anything I might get(like I can use Echinacea Angustfolia Root for,the rare cold/respiratory infection type of thing)and I was lacto-vegan from 1989 to 2009 and have been vegan since 2009. Your diet does affect if you get sick,and how bad it is,when you Do get sick. An alkaline food diet allows your body and immune system to function normally. The typical western diet is high in acid-producing foods,which hinder your natural ability to remain healthy on a cell/biological/physiological level. All animal products are Acid Producing Foods(a google search of acid and alkaline food lists or books like The pH Miracle will give you some better and more thorough information on that. These things aren't in the mainstream or on the lips of your doctor because your doctor is given an education in finance management(their own finances) ,business management/accounting/book keeping,and how to prescribe drugs. Their training is all sickness-based. I found the more you avoid doctors,the better off you are. They're there for when you're SICK. "Healthcare" is a lie and a myth. YOU take care of maintaining your health. A doctor DOES NOT tell you how to maintain a healthy level of health. A doctor deals with whatever sickness or disease or "condition" of bad health,which is sickness,that you develop. (If you make this pasta recipe with the brewer's yeast and spices recipe that is written here,and stir in Tofu-Goo,a recipe in one of the 3 guides,all on vegan topics that are on my Vegan Virgo ftp profile here on desertcart,it tastes pretty good also. It reminds me of the tuna casserole (minus the tuna) that we used to have in school. (And tastes like the sauce from Tuna Helper,without the MSG. MSG adds a very sharp and almost biting effect of flavor to your taste buds. The recipe I have here with Tofu-Goo stirred in,is flavorful and tasty. MSG actually is a drug,affecting your brain and the taste sensations in the brain. It is not a spice,reacting with your tongue and taste-buds. Facts on MSG will also tell you it is addictive,making you crave and prefer foods treated with MSG,in example,if five dishes of the same food were made or five brands of the same food were made,and one or two contained MSG,and the others didn't,people would crave and prefer the MSG laden foods. MSG also causes cells in the brain to age or burn out or no longer function properly;the exact problem related to the brain cells "burning out" can be found in an online search for it. I don't remember the exact details of why MSG is bad in that respect. But MSG should be avoided. You could probably do several variations of this(he brewer's yeast/spices gravy or sauce here,plus Tofu-Goo),making vegan pot-pies,different pasta or rice dishes and scalloped potato dishes or vegetable casseroles. The combination definitely has tasty potential for meals that anyone would like)
Review: Amazing!!!! - At first I am not going to lie I thought it tasted like hay. If you ever had matcha without any cream or sugar it is kind of like that. I dont want any of the additives that are in the others so I wanted this to work so bad. and I am so glad I stuck with it. What I do is add 1/2 tsp pure vanilla and 1/2 tsp coconut palm sugar tot he 4 tablespoons. I then add 1 cup of almond milk and shake it up in the shaker. then I start to drink it and notice its not all the way blended in and give it another good shake - only sometimes. Tastes great. I actually look forward to it. It took about a week to adjust my taste buds. I figured after a while I would acquire a taste and I did. Dont knock it right away! It is so worth it because it helps me be regular. Before I would have to take things to be able to go. Now I take this and finally no more issues. Plus it is a complete protein so it has all the amino acids. No need to spend more money on aminos. The money is not that much when you buy it in bulk size. So one the moon that I found this wonderful product.

So one the moon that I found this wonderful product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good product if you are doing low-carb or ketogenic diet
*by R***R on June 8, 2018*

I find this to be a nutrient-dense addition to my diet which is why I use it daily. It can even be a strong component in a low carb or ketogenic diet, as these ways of eating are becoming more popular, for the following reasons: While plant sources of omega-3s aren't efficiently converted into the forms the human body needs, taking them in at all can be better than not getting any, and most people need a higher omega-3 consumption to offset the high omega-6 content in the typical diet (You need both, but they need to be balanced as closely as possible in order to properly regulate your body's inflammation cycles). That makes this a source of healthy fats, which should comprise the majority of your caloric intake on a low carb diet and especially on a ketogenic diet. Both low carb and high fiber at the same time. When you are counting your carbs, every gram counts. Because the carb content in this is almost entirely fiber, it feeds the bacteria in your gut and doesn't effect your blood sugar and insulin too strongly in the process, especially because it's from a whole food source which includes naturally occurring fat. It is also a good source of protein when looking at plants. You don't need to eat a high volume of protein to be healthy, but consuming an adequate amount is important for the following reasons: protein is the most satisfying of the macronutrients which means you feel the fullest when you consume enough of it and you need enough protein each day to maintain your lean body mass. Especially if you are going low carb or ketogenic, more the latter of which designated as muscle-sparing, you want to insure that you are getting adequate protein to sustain the muscle you already possess, rather than having to resort to cannibalizing some of it to maintain your energy needs. A single serving of this stuff contains a decent amount of electrolytes, which are specific minerals that are required for energy and electrical processes throughout your body in order to remain alive. The standard diet, due to processing and other factors, tends to result in deficiencies of nutrients and minerals. But you're consuming enough carbs that your body maintains a lot of water weight, which contains these electrolytes.You can go longer without suffering the effects of those deficiencies because you get a bit of a buffer from all the water you're holding on to, which attaches to carbohydrates. But if you go into low carb or even ketogenic levels of intake, then your body is going to start flushing water every day. Supplementing and eating nutrient dense foods help you get through this, especially during the adaptation period, which frequently leads to the "keto flu." So you need to take in a lot of water, as well as electrolytes. You get more than half the recommended magnesium needs from a serving of this, as well as a decent amount of potassium, roughly equivalent to what you'd get from 1-2 cups of greens. Unless I find a better option, I'm likely to continue using this stuff long-term.
