Organic Hemp Powder

Organic hemp powder is made from finely ground hemp seeds. Hemp seeds are the edible seeds of the Cannabis sativa plant, which is grown for industrial purposes. The seeds are typically hulled and then milled into a powder.

Manufacturers add hemp powder for its nutritional content, often as a source of protein and fiber. It can also contribute a slightly nutty flavor and texture. It is commonly found in baked goods like cookies and granola, as well as in snack bars and smoothies.

Hemp powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Regulatory bodies like the WHO and EFSA have not specifically evaluated hemp powder as a food additive. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming hemp powder in typical amounts found in food.
