'''Edestin''' is a type of [[plant protein]] found primarily in [[hemp seeds]]. It is a globular protein, which means it is soluble in water and dilute salt solutions. Edestin is unique in that it contains a relatively high percentage of the essential amino acids, making it a high-quality protein source.

== Structure and Properties ==

Edestin is a [[globular protein]], which means it has a compact, spherical shape. This structure allows it to dissolve in water and dilute salt solutions. The protein is made up of [[amino acids]], the building blocks of proteins. Edestin contains a relatively high percentage of essential amino acids, which are amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own and must obtain from food.

== Nutritional Value ==

Edestin is considered a high-quality protein because it contains all of the essential amino acids in relatively high amounts. This makes it a complete protein source, similar to proteins found in meat and dairy products. However, unlike animal proteins, edestin is plant-based, making it a suitable protein source for vegetarians and vegans.

== Sources of Edestin ==

The primary source of edestin is [[hemp seeds]]. Hemp seeds are the seeds of the hemp plant, [[Cannabis sativa]]. They are a rich source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. In addition to edestin, hemp seeds also contain another type of protein called albumin.

== Health Benefits ==

Edestin has been associated with several health benefits. It is easily digestible, which means it can be used efficiently by the body. Some research suggests that edestin may have immune-boosting properties, although more research is needed in this area.
