A FINEH Protein Trial - Part 1

The objectives of this trial are to assess the health benefits of acute hemp protein consumption compared to soybean protein and a non-protein control on: 1) blood glucose, appetite and blood pressure for one hour following consumption, 2) food intake at an ad libitum meal one hour following consumption and 3) blood glucose, appetite and blood pressure following the ad libitum meal to determine the "second meal effect" of hemp protein.
