According to Kyran Rei, co-founder, the hemp-based product will have a total consumable protein that is “higher than even that of animal-based protein sources” because hemp is already naturally rich in protein. “Hemp-based meat will also contain very high levels of dietary fiber, up to 19 percent of the recommended dietary intake, a benefit that is not available from traditional animal meat or in any plant-based meats,” Rei explained to Food Navigator-Asia.
