My husband and daughter are both using it. They love it much better than anything else. Yes it is a bit more costly but well worth it as far as we are concerned when you see fiber and protein content!!!

My mom bought some for me a long time ago when she was concerned about my protein intake, so I do use it fairly frequently. It isn't necessary for me all the time, but sometimes it's a nice boost. I toss it in all of my smoothies, more out of habit than anything. It has a strong flavour but if you just use a bit less than recommended, you get used to it.
I kind of like it :)

Hemp powder is a good source of protein. Many people use it when they prefer to not use soy. Brendan Brazier, a vegan tri-athlete uses a hemp mix... I saw him speak at a health food symposium...
Whey is really bad for you, so hemp would be a good option.

He does not eat breakfast so he makes a shake with a dash of protein powder and fruits etc.

Any particular reason he is supplementing protein? Is he a body builder or marathoner?
