Nuts are designed by nature to stay intact as they pass through the body, in order to retain their integrity so they can plant themselves into soil and grow into a new plant. So if we want to access the nutrition of these powerful little storehouses, we need to give them a helping hand. We do this through a process known as ‘activation’: simply put, we soak them to release the enzyme inhibitors and phytic acid. Then we dehydrate them at low temperatures to preserve the enzymes and nutrients Our activated organic Almonds are very crunchy and very slightly salty. The end product is a light, crunchy nut that we think you will agree, is as super delicious as it is super nutritious. It's still not wise to overeat on nuts though, however good we've made them taste! The rule is to eat as many in a day as you can hold in the palm of your hand. They're great for snacking, in a home made trail mix, blended for a creamy nut milk, or crushed and sprinkled over a salad. If stored in a cool dry place will keep well. Note: Small children can choke on nuts. May contain pieces of shell
