04. Hemp_CRUNCH_1000™ – Crushed Hemp Hearts

Hemp_CRUNCH_1000™ — Gently Crushed Hemp Hearts

A high-fibre, high-protein hemp ingredient produced from cold-pressed hemp seeds. Hemp_CRUNCH_1000 delivers exceptional nutritional density — 39% fibre and 33% protein — with a light brown to beige colour, mild nutty flavour, and a satisfying crunch that adds both texture and function to finished products.

This is the ingredient that makes "high protein" and "high fibre" claims possible without compromising on taste or clean-label requirements.

Why Hemp_CRUNCH_1000

Finding a single ingredient that simultaneously delivers high fibre AND high protein — while being low in carbohydrates, allergen-free, and clean-label — is remarkably difficult. Hemp_CRUNCH_1000 solves this formulation challenge.

With only 2.5 g of carbohydrates per 100 g, it is naturally suited for ketogenic, low-carb, and blood-sugar-conscious product lines. The residual hemp seed oil contributes naturally occurring omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, including GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) and SDA (stearidonic acid) in small but nutritionally relevant amounts.
