-65% of the proteins in hemp are "edestin," which are easily digestible and act as pre-cursors to such vital body components as hormones, hemoglobin, enzymes and antibodies. Hemp's edestin structure is the highest in the plant kingdom, making it more digestible than soy and many other plant foods.

Edestin protein is found only in hemp seed. Edestin aids digestion and is relatively phosphorus free. Edestin protein is considered the backbone of the cell’s DNA.

Edestin protein is similar to the human body’s own globular proteins found in blood plasma. Edestin protein produces antibodies which are vital to maintain a healthy immune system.

Since edestin protein closely resembles the globulin in blood plasma, its compatible with the human digestive system. This may be the reason why there are no reported food allergies to hemp foods.

Hemp protein contains a favorable amount of glutamic acid. Glutamic acid is a neurotransmitter that helps people deal with psychological and work related stress.
