One 30 gram serving of V-70® Hemp Heart Protein packs 20 grams of protein. V-70® contains all 9 essential amino acids with high levels of Glutamic Acid.

The nine amino acids—histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine—are not synthesized by mammals and are therefore dietarily essential or indispensable nutrients.

Glutamic acid is an amino acid used to form proteins. In the body, it turns into glutamate. This is a chemical that helps nerve cells in the brain send and receive information from other cells. It may be involved in learning and memory.

Aspartic acid is a non-essential amino acid that helps build proteins, regulate hormones, and produce energy. It’s also involved in sending chemical signals in the brain and nervous system.
