» Ingredients » Organic Brazil Nuts
Brazil nuts are particularly healthy due to their high selenium content, which makes their protein content "complete". This means that, unlike the proteins in most plant products, brazil nuts protein contain all the necessary amino acids to foster optimal growth in humans (in the same way as proteins from animal products do).
- A powerful antioxidant
- A very good source of zinc
- They can be of particular use in the vegetarian diet as an added source of complete protein
- These nuts contain high amounts of fat, however, these fats are unsaturated and therefore an important part to our diet when ingested in moderate amounts
- A sustainable Rainforest product Certified at Organic instead of 100% Organic because this is a product from the rainforest. The nuts grow wild and it's extremely difficult and expensive for local farmers to certify miles and miles of this natural landscape. We are confident these are pesticide free.
