Astragalus Powder Organic

Product information "Astragalus Powder Organic"

Astragalus organic (100% natural)

Why is Astragalus consumed?

  • Astragalus powder (Astragalus membranaceus) is a food and is used as part of a balanced diet
  • Perfect in a diet with a high raw food content: In a vegetarian diet and actually also in any other diet
  • Popular for its immunostimulant properties: it can strengthen the immune system and, at best, protect the body against infections
  • People with inflammatory diseases appreciate the anti-inflammatory properties of astragalus
  • Astragalus can help improve physical stamina and reduce fatigue. It is also often used as a natural stimulant
  • Anti-ageing superfood: Known to have a positive effect on skin elasticity

What makes our astragalus special?

  • We source our organically grown astragalus roots of the highest quality from China, where they receive the Ecocert organic seal at the place of cultivation
  • Unfortunately, herbs from China are often heavily contaminated with pesticides; this is another reason why organic cultivation and certification are so important to us
  • The roots are processed gently and at a low temperature so that all the ingredients are preserved. Our tragacanth powder is processed without heat

The importance of astragalus

Astragalus has been used and valued by Asian peoples for thousands of years. The herbalists of China discovered and studied it over 2000 years ago.

Also known as Huang Qi or Mongolian tragacanth, this warming root is one of the 60 fundamental herbs in China. Astragalus root is one of the most important plants in China.

Tips for use

We have experimented with Astragalus and Fo-Ti (many-flowered knotweed) in both hot and cold drinks. This combination is really good, tastes wonderful and, in our experience, gives the body and mind an energy boost.

The new batch of tragacanth powder is no longer sweet, but has a slightly bitter flavour. Nevertheless, it can be stirred into juices, smoothies, nut milks or any other drink, whether hot or cold. For a hot drink, boil about 2.4 grams (1 teaspoon) of the ground, dried root in water for a few minutes and then brew the tea.

Camu Camu powder organic
Camu Camu (100% natural) powder with 15% vitamin C content Why consume camu camu powder? Camu Camu contains 2-3g of vitamin C per 100g of fresh fruit and around 10-12g per 100g of dried powder. This may not seem like much compared to synthetic vitamin C supplements, but the vitamin C in camu camu is a naturally occurring, highly bioavailable form and works synergistically in the body to maximise its benefits The camu camu fruit has the highest documented natural vitamin C content of any food on earth Compared to oranges, Camu Camu provides 30-60 times more vitamin C, 10 times more iron, 3 times more niacin, twice as much riboflavin and 50% more phosphorus! We have found that Camu Camu energises, builds and improves mood. It helps us to stay active and in a good mood throughout the day. A pretty amazing effect for such a small berry We all know about the high health value of vitamin C, and since camu camu exists, we can completely do without artificial, synthetic forms. For people like us, who are always on the lookout for what nature has to offer, this is a blessing The berry is 100% natural and a powerful, highly concentrated food Due to its natural origin and in combination with other vitamins, minerals, bioflavonoids and amino acids, the vitamin C contained in camu camu is fully absorbed by the body, which is not the case with synthetic vitamin C What makes our camu camu powder special? SamaraNatura Camu Camu grows wild in the Peruvian Amazon. The berries are harvested directly in boats equipped with freezing systems. The boats travel along the waterways of the Amazon, where the fruit is picked and shock-frozen when fully ripe. The fruit is then thawed, peeled, liquefied and spray-dried in a processing plant The resulting powder is pale pink to yellow-brown in colour and contains powerful ingredients. We receive our camu camu in the form of a pure, unadulterated powder with an orange-light brown colour It takes around 15kg of berries to produce 1kg of powder, which contains 10-12 per cent vitamin C by weight. Therefore, you only need a small amount to get an effective dose of antioxidants Camu camu powder: frequently varying vitamin C content We would like to point out that the vitamin C content of camu camu powder varies greatly. For example, there are also camu camu powders with only 5-6% vitamin C. When making a comparison, pay attention to the vitamin C content, as the lower the content, the cheaper the product should be. Influence on sustainable development of the Amazon basin We also like the fact that the growing popularity of camu camu contributes to the sustainable development of the Amazon basin and helps the locals to maintain their traditional lifestyle. How to use camu camu powder? Like other superfoods, camu camu is very easy to use. Simply mix the powder into your morning smoothie or an afternoon pick-me-up drink. Camu camu has quite an acidic flavour, although it does not have an acidifying effect on the body and is gentler on the stomach than synthetic ascorbic acid. It therefore tastes best when mixed with other ingredients. Add about a quarter to half a teaspoon (2-3g) to juices, smoothies, ice creams, raw desserts or simply in your drinking water. It's a great way to balance the sweetness of fruit smoothies and desserts. Tip: Camunade is a refreshing drink that gives you a good vitamin C boost. Simply sprinkle a teaspoon of Camu Camu into a glass of cold water (sparkling or still), add a squeeze of lime juice and a little sweetener (e.g. agave or yacon syrup) and shake briefly. You can increase the daily amount if necessary (spread the intake throughout the day), but diarrhoea symptoms indicate an excessive intake of camu camu. Nutritional values of organic Camu Camu per daily portion (3g) Energy value 11 kcal/46 kJ,Fat 0.03g,Carbohydrates 2.5g, of which sugar 0g,fibre 0.2g,protein 0.16g,330mg vitamin C (314%*) All information is subject to the usual fluctuations for natural products.*The recommended daily intake of approx. 105g according to the DACH reference value.

Fo-Ti Powder Organic
Fo-Ti Powder - Ancient Chinese tonic (100% natural) Update: The new batch of Fo-Ti powder comes from a different producer. The Fo-Ti powder is also certified organic and of very good quality. However, it is lighter in colour, finer ground and slightly sweet on the tongue, with a bitter finish -> on the right in the picture. Fo-Ti is a very popular and highly valued plant in China. Fo-Ti powder is made from the tuberous root of the plant, which grows in the mountains of central and southern China. Together with the goji berry, it is one of the most popular natural products. Fo-Ti is also known as "He Shou Wu ", which literally means "black-haired Mr He", referring to an ancient story in which a Mr He was able to restore his vitality, sexual potency and youthful appearance by eating the plant. Millions of men and women in the Far East use He Shou Wu, taking it for its invigorating properties. Why consume Fo-Ti? The tea has a slightly sweet, earthy flavour and is really excellent, even as an iced tea! If you still don't like Fo-Ti tea, you can also mix the root powder into your favourite drink. Especially in stressful times we like to drink Fo-Ti tea. What makes our organic Fo-Ti (He Shou Wu) powder special? Our Fo-Ti is a traditionally processed Fo-Ti and therefore not a raw food product. It is produced by slicing the roots shortly after harvesting and boiling them in a black bean soup. The prepared roots are then dried and ground into a fine powder. The powder is 100% organic Fo-Ti powder. Some producers also add soya sauce to the cooking process. However, this is not the case with our Fo-Ti powder. Fo-Ti has been produced in this way for around 1500 years. This method of preparation gives the root its particularly energising properties. How to use Fo-Ti powder? Half a teaspoon to a teaspoon of powder twice a day, in the morning and in the afternoon. You can infuse the powder with hot water or add it to juices, smoothies and other drinks. It also goes well with desserts. Fo-Ti is considered particularly safe in Asia and is suitable for long-term use. Mild disorders of the digestive tract, characterised by soft stools, can occur when Fo-Ti is used. However, an appropriate amount rarely leads to such an effect. Nutritional values of organic Fo-Ti powder per 100g (portion 1TL = 2.4g) Energy value 1287kJ/306kcal (31kJ/7kcal)Fat 1.2g (0.03g)of which saturated fatty acids 0.5g (0.01g)Carbohydrates 56.3g (1.3g)of which sugar 5.6g (0.1g)Dietary fibre 21.3g (0.5g)Protein 6.8g (0.2g)Salt 0.2g (0.005g)

Yellow Maca powder Organic
Yellow maca powder - the superfood from the Andes (100% natural) Wide range of maca Our raw maca powder from the Junin region in Peru is one of the best maca powders on the market. In addition to the yellow maca described here, our range currently also includes red and black maca, naturally also in organic and raw food quality. We also offer Bio Maca Max, a somewhat more digestible variant in which the starch contained in the maca powder is converted by heating, making it easier to digest and absorb. Our red maca powder fulfils the highest quality requirements ✓ from organic cultivation ✓ raw food quality due to a special air-drying process with the help of the sun ✓ pure variety from 100% red maca roots ✓ Grown at altitudes of over 4000 metres above sea level in the Junín region of Peru ✓ 4:1 concentration, i.e. 4kg of maca tubers yield 1kg of maca powder Why consume yellow maca powder? Maca increases our energy levels. Maca makes us feel energised, grounded and happy. Maca also has a pleasant, malty flavour and can be used in many different ways. The root vegetable has been a staple food of the indigenous peoples of the Andes for thousands of years and is an excellent source of energy and stamina. Its content of biologically utilisable protein is approx. 11% in the dried root. For legal reasons (Swiss Foodstuffs Ordinance), as a food retailer we are not permitted to make any statements about possible effects. Do your own research on maca on the Internet. We find Dr Schweikart 's website very informative. The different varieties are also described there. What makes our yellow maca powder special and where is it produced? Our pure yellow maca powder is made from 100% natural maca roots from controlled organic cultivation, produced under strict production standards and quality controls. They all come from altitudes of over 4000 metres above sea level in the Junín region of Peru. Our suppliers work together with small farmers. In doing so, they create jobs for the local population and advise the small entrepreneurs by offering training and financial support. This is a means of raising the standard of living of small farmers and at the same time increasing their crop yields. How to use yellow maca powder in everyday life? Maca has a unique flavour and can be added to many different dishes. Some people find the flavour of maca powder somewhat reminiscent of caramel with a peppery note. Maca powder can be stirred into rice, nut or hemp milk, for example, or simply mixed into muesli. Mix maca powder with water, milk of your choice or add it to juice, smoothies, muesli or raw desserts. Maca is also a good binding agent for soups and therefore a tasty addition. We particularly like maca together with oatmeal and as an ingredient in our raw chocolate recipes. More recipes... It is advisable to start with a small amount of ½ tsp per day and increase up to 1-2 tbsp per day. Unlike soya products, Mexican yam and linseed, maca does not contain hormones. Note: A common misconception about superfoods and herbs is that there is a standard amount to consume. In general, the usual recommended daily intake for most superfoods, including maca, is between 1 tsp and 3 tbsp per day, divided into two or three doses. It is best to start with 1 tsp per day and adjust the amount to your personal needs.

Cacao powder Peru organic
Low-fat cocoa powder with 10-12% cocoa butter content (100% natural) Update:Due to the cocoa shortage, we do not receive 100% Criollo powder from our supplier. The new batch contains 70% Criollo cocoa (previously 100%). The remaining 30% are Forastero, Trinitario and Nacional. They are also high quality, certified organic and from Peru. This is whyour cocoa powder is temporarily called "Cocoa Powder Peru". In comparison, it has a slightly more intense flavour and is slightly bitter, but also very tasty. Why cocoa powder? Cocoa has all the benefits of chocolate, but without the undesirable high sugar content and additives. As a reminder: milk chocolate only has a cocoa content of around 25%. The rest is sugar, milk powder, soya lecithin (emulsifier) and flavourings. Effect of cocoa? Raw cocoa is very nutritious. It has been determined that raw cocoa contains around 300 substances. It also contains the happiness combination of serotonin, dopamine, anandamide and phenetylamine (PEA). Cocoa has the highest magnesium content of all foods, i.e. 314mg per 100g, which corresponds to 75% of the recommended daily intake. Magnesium is a component of bones and teeth, plays an important role in energy metabolism and is essential for normal muscle function and energy metabolism. Magnesium also plays a role in skeletal development and is important in the transmission of stimuli in the nervous system during muscle contraction. Origin of our cocoa powder? Our raw cocoa powder comes mainly from the Peruvian fine cocoa variety Criollo - one of the best fine cocoa varieties in the world - and has a delicious, full chocolate flavour. What makes our cocoa powder special? The Criollo variety tastes better and is less bitter than other cocoa varieties. This also reduces the need to balance out the bitter flavour with sweeteners. It is obtained from unroasted, merely fermented cocoa beans. Gentle processing at low temperatures optimally preserves both nutrients and flavour. Gentle processing for maximum flavour To produce the powder, the fermented, unroasted fine flavoured cocoa beans are first ground. The resulting dark brown, viscous cocoa mass is cold-pressed to form a cake, from which the liquid, golden yellow cocoa butter slowly drains off. The remaining "cocoa press cake" is then dried, very finely ground and sieved. This process does not require any chemicals, additives or extraction solvents and produces a fine, soft powder with a full, wonderful chocolate flavour. The use of pesticides and synthetic fertilisers is also completely avoided. Food with a long tradition The cocoa bean is an impressive foodstuff given to us by Mother Nature. It was considered a gift from God by the Aztecs and was used not only as an offering but also as a means of payment. Tips for everyday use Mix cocoa powder into your muesli, smoothies, (hot) milk drinks and protein shakes. And of course, this cocoa powder is an excellent ingredient for delicious chocolate creations and desserts. Size variants We offer cocoa powder in 250g, 500g and 1kg bags as standard. Do you need large quantities? We are also happy to fill 5kg or 10kg bags on request.
