Water-Soluble Hemp Protein Ingredient Earns Award

WINNIPEG, ManitobaManitoba Harvest Hemp Foods & Oils earned the 2010 Best New Product Award and the 2010 Company of the Year Award from the Manitoba Food Processors Association (MFPA) during its 2010 MFPA Industry Excellence Awards dinner on May 12.

The company earned the MFPA 2010 Best New Product Award for its new Hemp PRO-70, a water-soluble hemp protein concentrate. Hemp PRO 70 provides a boost of powerful protein and other key nutrients, and because it is water soluble and has a non gritty mouthfeel and virtually no flavor, it blends easily into beverages and liquid-based foods and recipes. The product doesnt contain gluten or added sugars, and its free of the enzyme inhibitor found in soy and other legumes and grains that can prevent protein absorption and cause digestive challenges.
