FINALLY, the product I've been searching for!
I've been on the hunt for a good protein powder for a while. Whey- dairy, soy and pea- bloating, and hemp.. perfect! Not any hemp protein though. THIS. I tried it, and it actually tasted good. No artificial tasting flavor and not packed with sugar substitutes. I thought: "what's the catch?". Usually if something tastes good, it is lacking in something.. but nope! Pure ingredients with a good amino acid profile. It is 100% a safe blind buy. I would recommend to anyone, even if you haven't had stomach issues with other proteins.

Mixes extremely well and no tummy ache affect
This plant-based protein mixes extremely well. Most importantly it doesn’t give me a stomach ache which most proteins do. I like my chocolate very chocolatey so for me, I add a tablespoon of unsweetened Hershey’s cocoa. I also add some avocado to make it thick and creamy. After all, it’s a meal. This protein powder is a good value for the money.

I mixed it with coconut water
This was my first time using plant protein, and it did wonders for my gut. No bloating, no weird smell, no blood sugar rise. I mixed it with coconut water since we have lots of coconut trees in our yard. I also notice a rise in my energy levels a few hours after drinking it with the coconut water. I believe they were a great combination.

Perfect
Amazing. No digestive issues and the taste is fantastic for strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. Thrilled to find this.

Good Product - Weak Packaging
Have been using this product for over a year. But this time the plastic seal strip that holds the top of gusseted package shut, was defective. I get other products in these types of packages which fail as well.
Otherwise i enjoy the product and will most likely reorder again

Best all around protein powder
My favorite thing about this is there is no sugar and ultra low carbs. I can add sugar or dates to a smoothie if i want it sweeter but most times i don’t.Dissolves well, tastes good just in “milk”. I use unsweetened coconut or soy milk and it tastes good in both, even without sugar.I got the chocolate flavour (because, who doesn’t like chocolate?) and it’s good, not overpowering. The hemp has a …flavor, not bad but maybe nutty or earthy or something. I think it goes well with the chocolate.

Quality product
Pros: unflavored has excellent mix ability, no grit or aftertaste, enjoy shaken with iced coffee and almond milk; Cons: Package received 8/1/25 with an expiration date of 10/25, a nearly out of date product after waiting weeks for it to be in stock; zipper broke on first opening, tore from side of package. Hoping these issues will be addressed to meet quality of product.

~~~ Best hemp protein powder ~~~
Tastes really good—one of the finest hemp powders I’ve tried.Yes, it’s a bit pricey, but the quality speaks for itself.The flavor is smooth and pleasant, not overpowering.I mostly use it in smoothies and it blends perfectly.Pairs especially well with banana, dates, and cinnamon.I also mix in arugula, walnuts, and creatine—great combo.Adds a nice nutty depth and great texture.No gritty aftertaste like some other hemp brands.Perfect for a clean, plant-based protein boost.Highly recommend it if you care about taste and quality!

La vuelvo a comprar
Se disuelve muy bien en leche de avena, por lo tanto no tiene textura granulada al beberla. Tiene buen sabor y no tiene el after taste amargo de los sustitutos de azúcar (que es lo que me desagrada de la mayoría de las proteínas basadas en plantas). Tiene un buen sabor a chocolate y se sintió bien en el estómago.

Great Product & Customer Support!
I had a problem with Amazon shipping this in its just its original package because it is a food product and could get damaged in shipping. ultimately costing me the loss of the product. I reached out to the seller, who corrected the problem. Amazon provide shipping protection as per this last shipment. I recommend both the product (it's awesome and tastes great) and the seller (they're great at fixing your issue) as a good source for this product!

My review
I enjoy this product. Not too sweet, just right

Sooo good
Amazing taste so good unlike the nasty vegan pea protein powders hemp is way better and this one is great it’s not grainy like the other hemps I’ve tried not to mention a high amount of protein the trader Joe one is grainy had the same amount of cal and only like ten g protein
Healthy alternative to other protein shakes
I switched to this protein powder a few months ago and the quality is very good. It's a lighter chocolate flavor that tastes good. I like all the pure ingredients which is the main reason why I switched from my other protein shake (Orgain) which has high oleic sunflower oil (seed oils are not good) and more grains (trying to stay away from). This protein powder blends well in a shaker cup with cold water and I add 1 tsp of fiber https://www.amazon.com/dp/B011QGTRG4 then add 1 Tbls of MCT oil https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XM0Y9SE. It makes for a healthy quick breakfast before work. I did subscribe to help with the cost.

Just really good
This is just really good. Easy on the stomach. Tastes great. Very filling. Honestly a delightful surprise. Bought the Vanilla.
Sarah
Great taste and consistency.
One of the best protein powders on the market. I have been mixing the chocolate protein powder with light unsweetened oat milk. This product mixes really well with a standard shaker. It is not overly sweetened and it does not taste fake. Smooth taste and consistency, not chalky and no weird aftertaste. Very easy on the stomach, no bloating or gas. I look forward to my morning shake.
Teri
Great!
Love this protein powder. Wish it was a little less expensive. More deals?

Fresh Tasting
I was looking for a protein powder that wasn't pea or soy and this checks out!! The taste is rich and creamy for the vanilla and it tastes simply whole and good for you. It blends in just a few swirls. I love that it contains a few extra vitamins but this truly felt calming and healing for my digestive system unlike some of the other pea protein ones I've tried.
Veganesque
Wonderful product.
Excellent product. I put it in a shake in the morning along with blueberries, banana, beetroot, apple cider vinegar, some green veggies, and collagen. Makes me feel great! And it's a great way to get your protein.
Fran
Healthiest best tasting protein
Ibs sufferer for 20 years. Tried all the "clean" brands from truvani, planta, sprouts brands, and everyone else who makes the same thing with the same ingredients like stevia. The combination of these ingredients are literally the best. Hemp is sooo good for you. I know this from personal experience. Mct oil! Monk fruit! All ingredients for my pancreas/ ibs/ sibo issues I've had since a teen. Super happy that I found this company.Oh and the taste is 🔥! I used a banana and cinnamon to blend and was so relieved.

How it’s made and tested
- Made in Denver. Blended and packed in a food facility with a third-party GMP audit and its own organic certification.

FAQ
Is it organic?
Yes. USDA Certified Organic — grown under organic rules that ban GMOs and most synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, and audited annually by a USDA-accredited certifier. No animal ingredients, so it's vegan.
Is it cold-pressed?
Yes. Seeds are mechanically pressed at low temperature. No hexane, no chemical solvents, no high-heat extraction.
Where is the hemp grown?
China’s Heilongjiang region, where hemp has been cultivated for thousands of years. Hemp can pull heavy metals from soil, so we also had the protein tested for them by Eurofins.
Is it tested for heavy metals and THC?
Yes. In September 2025, Eurofins tested a sample of our hemp protein for 4 heavy metals and 16 cannabinoids. A 35g scoop of unflavored had 0.22µg of lead (under California’s 0.5µg Prop 65 level) and 0.49µg of cadmium, and mercury wasn’t detected. No THC or CBD was detected. That’s one sample, not every lot. Email info@cantein.com for the full reports.
What’s in a bag?
A 20-serving bag is 700g net (1.54 lb). Serving size is one 35g scoop. Shopify shipping weight can still show about 2.5 lb because that is the packed parcel, not the powder.
How much protein is in a scoop?
22g in vanilla or chocolate, 28g in unflavored, in the same 35g scoop. Flavored scoops are 22g because MCT, flavor, monk fruit, and salt take part of the weight.
Is Cantein a complete protein?
Yes. All nine essential amino acids from hemp, with lysine the lowest.
What are the ingredients?
Unflavored is one ingredient: organic hemp protein. Vanilla and chocolate each have six — organic hemp protein, organic MCT powder (from coconut), organic vanilla powder or organic cocoa powder, organic flavor, organic monk fruit, and salt. 0g added sugar. Sweetener is monk fruit, not stevia. No whey, soy, or pea.
How do returns work?
Return any cantein.com order within 30 days of purchase for a full refund. Email info@cantein.com to start; return shipping is paid by the customer. Details are on the guarantee page.
What does it taste like?
Vanilla and chocolate taste like a mild shake, not chalky candy. Unflavored has almost no flavor, so it does not change your coffee or oatmeal much. Buyers often say it mixes smoothly.
Is it gritty?
Cold-pressed hemp can be a little more textured than whey isolate. Most buyers say it mixes without lumps in a shaker. Start with a shaker bottle or blender if you are used to ultra-fine whey.
How does it compare to whey?
Whey is dairy. Cantein is plant hemp protein with a short ingredient list. Many people find Cantein because whey or pea did not agree with them. Protein per scoop is 22g flavored or 28g unflavored.
Can I pause or cancel a subscription?
Yes. Subscribe & Save is month to month. Skip a shipment or cancel anytime from your account, or email info@cantein.com.
