Thanks for the perspective guys. I think, if hemp protein shares many of the same qualities as whey, but comes from a plant, that’s probably a good thing. Whey is basically milk protein right?[/quote]
Yep, it’s one of the many proteins in milk.
I’m not particularly contending that one is better than the other though. There are many ways to determine protein quality, including biological value (nitrogen retention), chemical score (limiting amino acid), etc.
I believe whey is pretty cheap to manufacture and scores very well on those two assessments. I really know nothing about hemp protein.
