What's Really Inside a Hemp Protein Bar

Hemp seeds bring a complete amino acid profile, useful fibre, magnesium, iron and a well-regarded balance of omega-6 to omega-3 fats, but a finished bar is far more than its headline ingredient. These articles unpack what the rest of the label is doing: date paste and syrups as binders, added protein isolates, sugar alcohols, chicory root fibre, and the difference between whole hemp hearts and defatted hemp protein powder. Written for anyone who wants to read a nutrition panel with confidence rather than trust the wrapper.
