Chia Power – the Aztec superseed
Black / White Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica) are the highest known plant source of Omega-3, with 8 times more than salmon! Unlike other sources of this important Essential Fatty Acid (eg. Flax or fish oil), it is in a highly stable form due to its powerful naturally occurring antioxidants.
Chia is an easy way to add healthy nutrition to your daily diet, with Vitamins A, B12 and C, complete protein (18 Amino Acids), minerals including potassium, phosphorous, folate, zinc, iron, and calcium as well as bowel-regulating soluble and insoluble fibre. Sprinkle these flavourless seeds on salads, muesli, oatmeal, stirfrys, smoothies, muffin or bread batter, or cereal. Optional: use a spice/coffee grinder to make a fine meal-like consistency.
8 times more Omega-3 EFA’s than salmon
7 times more Vitamin C than oranges
6 more times fibre than oat bran
5 times more calcium than milk
4 times higher ORAC value than blueberries
3 times more iron than spinach
2 times more potassium than bananas

Cacao Power – the Mayan superfood
Cacao (pronounced ka-kow) beans are the seeds of an Amazonian fruiting tree and source of all chocolate and cocoa products. Pulverising the raw Nibs separates them into creamy Cacao Butter and beautiful rich, raw Cacao Powder.
As the temperature is never allowed to exceed 40°C, the powder is considered a ‘raw' food with all heat-sensitive vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants remaining intact, thereby maximising digestion and absorption. In fact, the powder has over 360% MORE antioxidants than regular cocoa !!
The Mexican Mayan kings drank up to 30 pure chocolate drinks a day to maintain their vigour and valued the bean so highly that it was used as money. Raw Cacao products are a source of beta-carotene, amino acids (protein), Omega-3 EFA's, calcium, zinc, iron, copper, sulphur, potassium, and one of the best food sources of muscle relaxing, stress relieving magnesium – now you know why women crave chocolate every month!
Cacao Power Gold comes from a heritage Cacao Bean variety found only around Ecuador (a country justifiably famous for their chocolate products).
The strong Aussie dollar allows us to bring you this previously unaffordable decadence - 100% pure certified organic raw Cacao Powder. It has an impressive nutritional content, deeper colour, aroma & flavour and a naturally richer cocao butter content gives this luxury powder o smoother texture on the tongue.
Add to smoothies or milkshakes, make hot chocolate, sprinkle on coffee or icecream, add to cookie or muffin batter, or substitute for regular cocoa powder in dessert recipes.
