Our Superior Ingredients
Our products are made with the best organic ingredients you can source. Conventional ingredients are heavily sprayed with pesticides and harmful chemicals that are dangerous to your health. Buying organic ensures you will not be ingesting glyphosate, which is also known as Round Up. Also purchasing ingredients from only dedicated gluten free facilities is key to avoiding any cross contamination, which is very common in nut products.
Organic Almonds
Almonds are nutrient dense and contain many antioxidants. They are the perfect ingredient for low carb products and are a great source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. One ounce of almonds has 48% of the recommended daily value of vitamin E.
Organic Pecans
Organic pecans provide the body with healthy monounsaturated fats, protein, and fiber which will help you stay satiated longer. They are also packed with many essential vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium.
Organic Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
Coconut is low carb but high in fiber, which is the perfect combination for a balanced paleo and gluten free diet. While the majority of fruit is loaded with sugars, coconut provides you with mainly beneficial fat content.

Organic Honey
Organic honey is another amazing natural sweetener, that adds delicious flavor without refined sugars or artificial sweeteners. This sticky goodness is what holds our bars and granola together. Just like pure maple syrup, honey provides very beneficial antioxidants that can help prevent cell damage from free radicals. Honey not only contains many vitamins and minerals, but it also has antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. Research is being done on different honey varieties and how they can fight against candida associated infections.

Organic Pure Vanila extract
Organic pure vanilla extract offers our bars and granola an amazing, rich flavor. Unfortunately, many companies use cheap artificial-vanilla flavoring, which comes with a list of ingredients. Commonly they use caramel color, which is known to have gluten in it. For this reason, it is best to always consume organic pure vanilla extract and avoid added chemicals and possible gluten. The flavor of pure vanilla extract can't even compare to artificial vanilla flavoring.

Organic Ceylon Cinnamon
There are different types of cinnamon including Ceylon, Cassia, Saigon, and Korintje Cinnamon. One important notable difference is Ceylon cinnamon and Cassia Cinnamon is the levels of a natural plant chemical called coumarin. Coumarin can act as a natural blood thinner, which can cause issues for certain people. High amounts of coumarin can cause liver damage overtime. This makes Ceylon Cinnamon a superior choice, being it has significantly lower levels of coumarin. Ceylon Cinnamon also offers a sweeter flavor than Cassia Cinnamon which magnifies the flavor of our bars and granola.
Sea Salt
Sea salt contains over 60 trace minerals. We use Redmonds Real Sea Salt, which is unrefined sea salt found in a seabed in Utah. It is unprocessed and not chemically treated. Sea salt adds an amazing flavor to our bars and granola.
