Rainforest Foods Organic Cacao Nibs 300g Description Cacao is the raw base for chocolate manufacture. However, in its own right it is a truly remarkable food. It is packed with antioxidants & other phytonutrients, to make a powerful & delicious contribution to a healthy diet. For too long this amazing nutritional phenomenon has been ignored, hidden behind the fat & sugar of its processed relative, chocolate. However, awareness of its remarkable nutritional profile is growing, & increasing numbers of people are putting this fantastic food at the core of a healthy diet. Rainforest Foods uses only Criollo Cacao, often referred to as the ' Queen of Cacao' for its high quality. Cacao is extraordinarily rich in antioxidants, even more so than Acai berry. Science has investigated Cacao extensively. One well-regarded study looked at its effects on a people indigenous to Panama, comparing a group given to drinking large quantities of home-prepared Cacao with another exhibiting more modern dietary habits. The results were startling: the Cacao-consuming group exhibited much lower rates of stroke & cardiovascular disease. 50% of Cacao’s mass is made up of three fats. However, they are all harmless to us. One is Oleic acid, the fat found in olive oil. The others – Stearic & Palmitic acids – are believed not to cause cholesterol buildup. The harmful effects of chocolate are caused by the fat & sugars added during its manufacture. Rainforest Foods Cacao nibs are unprocessed. They are Cacao beans, simply broken into small pieces. Optimum nutrition is retained. Cacao contains several amino acids, including Tryptophan. Cacao is also rich in Magnesium. Production Rainforest Foods raw Cacao is produced by organic growers in Peru. It is harvested by hand as pods. These are broken apart & allowed to ferment. The pulp surrounding the beans that ferments & eventually runs away as liquid. This process has a chemical effect on the beans, reducing their bitterness. The beans are then washed & disinfected, before being dried. Dried beans are peeled & their cores extracted, to be broken into pieces or ‘nibs’. The result is then packed ready for distribution. Organic Certification Rainforest Foods Cacao is certified by the Soil Association, one of a handful of organic certification bodies in the UK. These are regulated in their turn by DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs). The role of the Soil Association is to ensure that all foods sold as organic are definably so.

Rainforest Foods Organic Chlorella Powder 200g Description Chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris) is a blue-green algae, known to be one of the world’s most complete foods. It provides protein, carbohydrate & broad-spectrum vitamins, plus a wide range of minerals & enzymes. Chlorella is best-known as a popular basis to detoxification programmes. However, it is regarded increasingly as a highly useful general dietary supplement that provides broad support for a healthy diet. It is justifiably popular among people with active lifestyles. A significant component of Chlorella is the green pigment chlorophyll, which is high in magnesium. Chlorella is also rich in protein. Chlorella packs a significant arsenal of vitamins, including Vitamins A, C, E, B9 & K. It supplies minerals that include Calcium, Iron, Phosphorous, Potassium & Sodium. This is a multi-tasking food that deserves a central place in everybody’s diet. It does many jobs for many people, & it does them all well. Production Rainforest Foods Chlorella is grown organically on an island in the South China Sea. Laboratory-cultivated batches grow & multiply by photosynthesis in cultivation ponds containing filtered natural water. Once it has reached the required density the Chlorella is harvested. It is dried by a process known as spray evaporation, which retains virtually all the available nutritional value while rendering the product into powder form. Next, the tough cell wall is broken. While this is an aid to detoxification as it binds toxins to it as we digest the Chlorella, it also creates a barrier which reduces the amount of nutrients available from within the cell. The cell wall-breaking process does not damage the contents, but does make them bio-available. Organic Certification Rainforest Foods Chlorella powder is certified by the Soil Association, one of a handful of organic certification bodies in the UK.

Rainforest Foods Organic Maca Root Powder 200g Description Maca is a plant known as Lepidium peruvianum Chacon, which grows in the Peruvian Andes over 4000m above sea level. These are harsh conditions, in which plants have to be good at taking up nutrients from the soil. Maca’s root & hypocotyl – the bulbous stem below the leafy growth – have for centuries been part of the diet & culture of local people. According to legend, Incan warriors consumed it prior to battle to increase their fighting spirit, & it has historically been used to enhance strength, stamina & libido. It presents a broad spectrum of nutrients, & today is increasingly popular with athletes. There are several variants of Maca, which express themselves in the colour of the root & hypocotyl. Maca can be cream, yellow, green, red, violet, grey or black. Fundamentally these have the same basic wide nutritional profile, but they exhibit small shifts in the proportions of their secondary phytonutrients. Scientific study has begun to confirm the established dietary opinion that different colours of Maca have slightly varying nutritional properties. Rainforest Foods Maca powder contains a blend of 4 phenotypes of Lepidium meyenii designed as an optimal general combination. These are red, yellow, violet & black roots. Rainforest Foods Maca was the Platinum Award winner for Best Organic Superfood Powder, in the Janey Loves 2011 awards, part of Imperfectly Natural. ' Our tester has been taking this superfood as a yummy drink. It is certified organic by the Soil Association. Maca helps strength, stamina & libido, ' commented Imperfectly Natural. Production Rainforest Foods raw Maca is cultivated in Peru, at high altitude (over 4000m). The growing season is eight months long, which gives time for the nutritional profile to develop fully. A further three months is given to a natural, open-air drying process. The dried roots are cleaned & broken into small pieces, which are then milled to powder. The result is then packed for transport. Organic Certification Rainforest Foods Maca powder is certified by the Soil Association, one of a handful of organic certification bodies in the UK.
