Hemp Protein for Safety Evaluation

The trial aims to determine if a THC-free hemp protein supplement (Agoge Hemp Protein Powder) is safe and well-tolerated by healthy adults. It will assess whether taking the supplement for 30 days results in THC detection in urine and affects health markers such as liver and kidney function. Participants will take the supplement twice daily and provide blood and urine samples. This trial is intended for healthy adults who have not used cannabis or hemp products in the last 90 days and are willing to avoid them during the study. As an unphased trial, it offers participants the opportunity to contribute to understanding the safety of hemp protein supplements.

The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but you cannot participate if you regularly use medications that could interfere with THC metabolism. It's best to discuss your specific medications with the trial team.

Research has shown that hemp protein supplements, such as Agoge Hemp Protein Powder, are generally safe for healthy adults. Studies have found that these supplements do not contain detectable levels of THC, the substance in cannabis that causes a "high." Therefore, users do not need to worry about experiencing a high from hemp products.

Regarding safety, these studies have not identified any major side effects, indicating that the supplement typically does not cause serious health issues. Participants did not experience significant problems with liver or kidney function, which are important health checks in these studies.

Unlike the standard protein supplements that are often derived from whey or soy, Agoge Hemp Protein Powder is unique because it uses hemp as its active ingredient. Researchers are excited about this treatment because hemp protein is plant-based, making it an appealing option for those following vegetarian or vegan diets. Additionally, hemp protein is rich in essential amino acids and healthy fats, which could offer added nutritional benefits compared to traditional protein sources.

Research has shown that Agoge Hemp Protein Powder is free of THC, so it should not cause THC to appear in urine tests. Early studies have focused on safety and tolerance, indicating that it is generally safe unless there is a hemp allergy. This protein should be used as a supplement, not as a meal replacement. In this trial, participants will consume 20 grams of Hemp Protein Powder twice daily for 30 days to confirm that the protein does not affect key health indicators, such as liver and kidney function.¹³⁴⁵⁶
