Next question is, how does industrial hemp compare to soy as a food source? Ooh.  Well, I think in general hemp is much more hypoallergenic than soy products are. There are lots of people who have allergies to soy, but I’ve never met anybody that has an allergy.  To hemp. I’m sure that they exist out there, but there’s so few and far in between You know, I I’ve just never met them.

The case could be made that maybe Like if it was conventional hemp, you could say well Maybe it’s what they’re getting sprayed with but then that wouldn’t account for people that are allergic to organic soy So soy is as a protein Has trypsin inhibitors and hemp seed protein does not. And hemp proteins are called edestin albumin proteins.

Albumin, which is most closely associated with, like, what people get in eggs, except this is a plant source. Very easy to digest, very easy to absorb. And then edestin protein is regarded as… It’s kind of another name for it is regarded as an immunoglobulin protein, something that helps to support your red blood cells and red blood cell health.

It’s also strengthening to your natural killer cells within the body. In general, it just promotes good blood health. That’s a much easier way to kind of say that in a wide range. You could drill down on the specifics of it, but I’m trying to make these fit within a couple minutes. So just cut me some slack.

And Let’s see. Let’s see. Let’s see. Let’s see. Let’s see. What did I have to do with food? Compare to soy as a food source. And it’s also very rich. You know, it’s also very rich in potassium, magnesium, manganese, copper, primary minerals. Hemp, hemp seed proteins are very like the seeds, which is where you would get all the food from really is just very rich in those minerals.

Soy in general is not rich in any of those minerals. It has properties that are a little bit more, you know a little bit more helpful for the assimilation of certain estrogens like isoflavones. And things kind of overlapping into that nature, but that’s, it’s a whole different conversation.

And then hemp, hemp seeds generally contain a little bit more fiber. Actually, quite a lot more fiber than soy does naturally. So you’re helping with colon health, digestion health, and just, you know, keeping yourself kind of scrubby clean. That’s some of the main differences.

Soy has can be a source of choline and lecithin, but only when the seeds are pressed quite a lot. So that’s more of like that would put that particular product neck and neck with hemp seed oil and hemp seed oil still has quite a lot more benefits to it than lecithin does.

Although acetylcholine and acetylcholine production is critical to proper neurological functioning and you can get that from both because your body’s going to take those healthy fats and convert them into eicosanoids and convert that into Acetylcholine as needed.

Anyways, hopefully that answers your question in a very most basic form. I could probably go off the rails a little bit, like if someone wants to juice hemp seed, I mean hemp leaves, which is also really good. You can get a good juice out of that if you, especially if you want to mix it with like a wheat grass.

That’d be a powerhouse. But it’s very nutritious. It’s very good for you. Those are probably the two things that you would want to focus on out of that. You know, hemp seeds, the proteins, the oils, and juicing the leaves. But in general, you know, you can’t really juice soy leaves. And in general, you can’t, like, edamame is great.

You know, just as some little snacks and things in the pods. But that’s about all you can do with… raw soy. You can do more with hemp seeds. Okay. Hope that helps.
