Organic hemp oil - rich in valuable omega-3 fatty acids
The hemp plant produces oily seeds that contain between 25 - 35% oil by weight, which is rich in essential fatty acids (EFA). EFS are fatty acids that humans cannot produce themselves and are dependent on their intake through food.
Why consume hemp oil?
Hemp oil is an excellent food for the supply of EFS, with linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid and the rare gamma-linolenic acid. These fatty acids are required for the production of numerous hormones and for cell renewal. Fatty acids support the functions of the human body to maintain health and contribute to the normal development and growth of the organism. Omega-3 fatty acids are incorporated into the cell membrane and are necessary for its structure and function. Omega-3 fatty acids have an influence on blood lipid regulation. They contribute to health as part of a balanced diet.
Hemp oil in comparison with similar products
Hemp has an optimal functional ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids for humans, which is considered to be 4:1. Hardly any other plant food source contains the essential fatty acids (EFAs) in such an ideal ratio for the human organism!
Although hemp oil is more expensive than hemp seeds, the EFS in the oil are more readily available and easier for the body to metabolise. Since EFS are so important for our nutrition, since most people's bodies do not function optimally and since hemp is such a product rich in vital substances, we think it is a good idea to have both oil and seeds in your daily diet.
Hemp oil for skin care
The oil can also be used externally for skin care, even if the skin is in poor condition, as it is easily absorbed and moisturising.
What makes our cold-pressed organic hemp oil special?
Most oils sold in supermarkets are extracted at excessively high temperatures and with solvents and then refined. The oils lack the beneficial properties and contain harmful trans fatty acids as a result of the hydrogenation process.
Our hemp oil is gently cold-pressed in Austria from local organic hemp seeds, filled into dark-coloured bottles, sealed and stored in a cool place to preserve the oil's impressive nutritional properties.
1 litre of hemp oil is obtained from 5kg of unpeeled hemp seeds. It has a beautiful green-yellow colour and a nutty, slightly grassy flavour.
Please note that oils should be pressed at minimum heat, as the higher the temperature, the faster the oil is destroyed by light, oxygen and other chemical reactions. A change in the fatty acid molecules due to the effect of heat also impairs the nutritional value and biological value of the oil.
Use of organic hemp oil in everyday life
It is not suitable for frying and should only be used in its raw state.
Hemp oil adds a flavourful note to salad dressings, marinades, mayonnaises, dips and spreads. It can be used instead of or together with olive, walnut and safflower oil.
The intake for a person with an average build/body fat profile can be 1-3 tablespoons (up to 50ml) per day.

Cocnut Oil - Healthy Allround-Product
Update from November 15th, 2022: The new batch of our coconut oil is now available. On the right side you can choose the variants 500ml or 1000ml.
Why buy organic coconut oil?
Naturally aromatic taste
Use in the kitchen and for personal hygiene
High heat stability
For weight loss support
The digestible coconut oil with its naturally fragrant, mildly aromatic taste is a must for us in the kitchen!
A big advantage of coconut fat in contrast to other oils is that it is very heat-stable. It is therefore ideal for cooking, frying and baking. And it also has a long shelf life.
Coconut oil does not make you fat and is even said to help you lose weight, as it is immediately converted into energy by the body. The special saturated fatty acids of coconut (so-called MCT fats) - and here in particular the high content of lauric acid - are of great nutritional and physiological benefit. Breast milk also consists largely of these medium-chain fatty acids, which do not contain any cholesterol themselves, but promote the production of healthy, vascular-protecting HDL cholesterol.
Coconut oil also has valuable properties for cosmetics. Coconut oil cares for skin and hair and provides moisture, promotes well-being, a beautiful appearance and a vital radiance. This is also known in Asia, where coconut oil has been used as a rich source of food, beauty and care products for centuries.
What makes our coconut oil special?
Extraction from fresh fruit meat
Organic certification
Gentle processing
Coconut palms are ancient crops and have been grown for at least 3000 years. When it comes to coconut oil, it is particularly important to pay attention to the quality of the product, because many of the coconut fats available on the market are industrially hardened and deodorized.
For our virgin coconut oil, the pulp of freshly harvested organic coconuts is gently dried for one to two days and then cold-pressed. The result is coconut oil with a subtle coconut taste. The coconut oil is certified organic, unbleached, not deodorized and without any additives.
The unhardened, unrefined "Virgin Coconut Oil" convinces with its excellent properties and particularly high content of valuable lauric acid.
Both sizes (500ml and 1 liter) are filled into a practical, reclosable white glass. This can later be used as a storage jar for powder, nuts and much more.
Where does our coconut oil come from?
The current batch is from the Philippines.
Tips for use: In the kitchen and for personal care
You can use the oil, which has a firm consistency in the refrigerator, for example as a butter substitute, spread or for salad dressing. However, due to its fatty acid structure, it can also be used for frying at high temperatures and gives sauces, Asian dishes and other dishes a subtle exotic note. Very tasty in desserts and homemade chocolates.
Insider tip: pour a teaspoon of warm coconut oil over ice cream.
Applied as a hair care or hair treatment, it makes brittle hair supple and shiny. To do this, massage coconut oil into dry hair, leave it on for 10-15 minutes, then wash the hair with a mild shampoo.
Coconut oil has a firm consistency at room temperature and begins to melt and turn into oil at around 25 degrees.

Carob powder - from the pods of the carob tree
Carob is a legume that grows on the carob tree, a wild, evergreen tree native to the Mediterranean, and has been used as a sweetener and nutritious natural snack for thousands of years. Carob was well known to the ancient Greeks, who spread the seeds of this plant in Greece and Italy.
Why consume carob powder?
People who don't know much about carob think it's a healthy version of (high-sugar, high-fat) chocolate, but it's so much more. We like to mix carob with raw cocoa for a sweet and healthy treat, because cocoa has a lot of magnesium and compared to cocoa, carob contains three times as much calcium, a third less calories and only 1% fat.
Carob is naturally sweet and fewer sweeteners are needed when it is used in recipes. It has a low glycaemic index, is low in fat and exceptionally nutritious, rich in calcium, protein and fibre.
What makes our carob powder special?
Our organic carob powder from Spain is gently heated and ground for drying in order to preserve its flavour, colour and nutrients. Due to the drying process at well over 42° C, it is no longer raw food.
Due to the different requirements, we offer carob powder in 2 different sizes: 250g and 500g. These can be selected at the top right under "Weight variants".
Using carob in everyday life and for great recipes
Use carob powder to sweeten dishes, in desserts, smoothies, sprinkled on your muesli, as an ingredient in raw chocolate and cakes as well as in quick and nutritious snacks.
Tip: Hemp protein squares with carob and goji berries. You can find the recipe under The best superfood & raw food recipes: Maca Cacao Goji Hemp Seeds Baobab | SamaraNatura

Organic almond puree (almond paste) from Soyana in raw food quality
Update: The Soyana almond puree from Italy is available again as normal and the 1kg versionof Naturkostbar's white almond puree remains in the range.
Urs Hochstrasser, Swiss raw food pioneer, co-developed this white organic almond puree and has been using it in his raw food gourmet cuisine for over 20 years. Almond puree is sometimes also known as almond butter or almond butter.
Properties of Soyana organic almond puree
White almond purees are usually made from blanched almonds. The brown skin of the almond can be easily removed by briefly cooking it in boiling water.
Soyana almond puree is one of the few in raw food quality and is never heated above 40° during production. Only selected organic Sicilian almonds are used for production.
You can find out why this raw food almond puree is a blessing for us all in the YouTube video from Welt der Gesundheit with Urs Hochstrasser from 21.07.2022.
Why eat almond puree?
Almond puree is very nutritious, has a delicious almond flavour and a slightly sweet note. Due to its creamy consistency, it is not only suitable for smoothies & co. but can also be enjoyed as a snack.
Almond puree contains lecithin (even more than eggs) and enables the emulsification (mixing) of fats and water. This is very important for the airy consistency of smoothies and sauces.
Recommendations for use
The almond puree is suitable in vegan cuisine instead of
Dairy products for milkshakes, smoothies and soups
Eggs for sauces, creams and desserts of all kinds (e.g. with carob powder).
as well as for spreads.
Tip 1: Mix3 tablespoons of almond puree with 5 litres of water to make a nutritious almond milk in no time at all. If you like it sweet, apple syrup, agave syrup and yacon syrup as well as carob powder are suitable for sweetening.
Tip 2: Vegan royal sauce according to Urs Hochastrasser. Place 2-3 tablespoons of almond puree with the juice of a lemon and an orange and 1 litre of water in an open blender. Then, with the blender running, slowly pour in 2.5dl apricot kernel oil and 1dl water in between. You can experiment with the quantities of oil and water. The more oil, the firmer the consistency. Finally, season to taste. The royal sauce can be stored in the fridge for 1 week.
Good best-before date
We regularly order new batches from Soyana, which is why the best-before date of the almond puree is usually between 9 and 12 months. It is therefore worth ordering at least 3 pieces, as we then offer a 5% quantity discount and free postage (from an order value of CHF 100).

Premium agave syrup in raw food quality
What is agave?
The agave is a cactus-like plant from Mexico. Agave syrup is a delicious sweetener made from the juice inside agaves that are at least eight years old.
The Mexicans traditionally collected the sweet juice ("aguamiel") from various agaves in order to make sweeteners and special drinks for celebrations.
Why buy agave syrup?
Agave syrup is a vegan alternative to honey and has a pleasant taste, like a mixture of honey and maple syrup. It can be used in many ways as a sweetener.
Only the very gently processed agave syrup like ours has a low glycemic index and is only slowly absorbed into the bloodstream. It is therefore particularly recommended for people who are sensitive to sugar.
What makes our agave syrup special?
Most conventional agave syrups, including those from organic farming, are made from 3-6 different agave species and have been heated up and pasteurized, as the juice of the agave spoils quickly after it has been removed. The contained healthier multiple sugars (polysaccharides, mainly in the form of inulin) are converted into simple sugars. They have lost a large part of their nutrients!
Our agave syrup is obtained exclusively from the Salmiana agave, is processed very gently and at low temperatures and is therefore of the best quality available on the market.
No pesticides or other agrochemicals are used in cultivation. The syrup is produced in special vacuum containers in which the water it contains evaporates at very low temperatures.
The valuable vitamins, minerals and enzymes are largely preserved and available for our body. Because our agave syrup is 100% natural, it has a stronger taste and a darker color than commercially available concentrated juices.
How to use in the daily diet?
Agave syrup is characterized by a high, neutral sweetness. It enhances the aroma and is easily soluble in cold and warm dishes and drinks.
Ideally suited for baked goods and due to the low tendency to crystallize for the production of jams and jellies.

Yacon Syrup Organic - Delicious, prebiotic sweetener
Yacon is grown in the high mountain valleys of the Andes and has a dense root system that is full of minerals, vitamins and complex vital substances. The freshly squeezed juice of the root is a gift from nature and has been enjoyed by the Andean peoples for centuries.
The special thing about Yacon is the quality of its sugar, which is mainly in the form of oligofructose (or fructooligosaccharides). Oligofructose cannot be used by the digestive enzymes and therefore hardly causes any calories and protects the blood sugar level. In addition, as a prebiotic, oligofructose supports a healthy intestinal flora.
An ideal sweetener for diabetics, health-conscious and diet-conscious people alike.
Why we love Yacon Syrup
Yacon tastes delicious and has half as many calories as honey, for example. And on top of that, its sugar hardly increases the blood sugar level and avoids strenuous blood sugar highs and lows. Yacon syrup is also significantly less glycemic than honey, agave or maple syrup.
The oligofructose in Yacon also supports the beneficial bacteria in the colon, thereby improving digestion and absorption of nutrients. The indigestible sugar thus serves the beneficial bacteria as prebiotic food.
SamaraNatura Yacon Syrup
Our yacon syrup comes from traditional varieties from the Peruvian Andes and is 100% natural, grown without pesticides and agrochemicals. It is produced at low temperatures, which guarantees that the syrup retains a very high quality of nutrients and enzymes.
This yacon syrup is thickened from yacon juice in a special vacuum process at low temperatures of 45°C. Since this yacon syrup can only be kept for a relatively short time without pasteurization, it is pasteurized at 70°C for 3 minutes. The syrup is therefore not raw food, but processed very gently, which means that the valuable nutrients and enzymes in the roots are largely retained.
How to use
Yacon syrup can be used in many ways as a sweetener. It can be used to sweeten desserts, drinks and smoothies. For salad dressings, we like to mix the syrup with vinegar, as a substitute for balsamic vinegar, which usually contains a lot of sugar.
The sweetness of the syrup is less strong than the sweetness of sugar, honey or agave syrup. To support a healthy intestinal flora, 1 teaspoon is sufficient daily.
For a better shelf life, we recommend storing the yacon syrup in the refrigerator.

Apple syrup Soyana Bio in raw food quality made from 100% Swiss apples
This organic apple syrup was developed by Swiss raw food pioneer Urs Hochstrasser to "sweeten life with a clear conscience".
Soyana produces the organic apple syrup in raw food quality from 100% Swiss organic apples according to Urs' strict guidelines. Due to the gentle thickening at below 43° C (in contrast to many other sweeteners, which are pasteurized), many enzymes and nutrients are preserved.
Use organic apple syrup
With its fruity apple aroma, it is perfect for sweetening smoothies, raw food desserts and cakes.
In combination with tart or maltier dry powders such as cocoa and maca, we recommend using the caramel agave syrup (raw food) or yacon syrup (non-raw food) for taste reasons.

Turmeric powder - the Ayurveda super spice
Turmeric contains essential oils, the yellow dye curcumin, enzymes and gives the curry its typical light yellow color. In our latitudes, it is now widely known as spice. But turmeric is much more; One of the most important medicinal plants. Since we as merchants can not make any health promises, we refer to various reports on the Internet.
The turmeric content of the powder is 2-3%. However, in order to achieve a noticeable effect, 5 grams (approximately one teaspoon) should be taken daily. A versatile use in the kitchen is therefore required.

Cold pressed organic black cumin oil from the Bernese oil mill
This organic-certified black cumin oil was obtained from Egyptian seeds of the Nigella sativa and pressed under 32 degrees Celsius.
Black cumin oil is a very powerful oil with a wonderful fragrance. Because of its sharpness, it is advisable to mix the black cumin oil dropwise with another cold-pressed oil (e.g. olive oil).
Use: Black cumin oil is ideal for seasoning arab dishes, sauces and pestos or salad dressings. Insider tip: Also in the Müesli super delicious!
Note: Cold-pressed oils (except for coconut oil) are sensitive to heat and are therefore mainly suitable for use in the cold kitchen. When strongly heated, e.g. roasted, poisonous compounds can arise.
Producer: Cédric Wüthrich from the Bernese oil mill produces high-quality oils, certified according to Swiss Organic Ordinance CH-BIO-086 and in raw food quality.
Organic camelina oil, cold-pressed from Swiss camelina seeds
This golden yellow organic camelina oil was obtained from Swiss camelina seeds and pressed below 30 degrees Celsius. In order to maintain the raw food quality, the producer (Naturkostbar AG) uses special, cooled oil mills.
Camelina oil is very rich (approx. 35%) in omega 3 fatty acids, also called alpha-linolenic acid. In contrast to linseed oil, camelina oil has a significantly longer shelf life (it becomes bitter much less quickly) and still has a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
How to use of camelina oil
With its wonderful taste, which is reminiscent of peas, camelina oil is ideal for flavoring vegetable dishes, salads and dip sauces.
Like most cold-pressed oils, this camelina oil is sensitive to heat and is therefore mainly suitable for cold dishes. Excessive heating, e.g. roasting, can produce toxic compounds.
In order to maintain the quality of the oil for as long as possible, we recommend storing the camelina oil in the refrigerator.

Organic Ceylon Cinnamon Powder - Premiumquality that you taste
This first-class cinnamon powder from Sri Lanka, the original home of the cinnamon tree, is fine and pure, with a particularly intensive fragrance and taste from genuine Ceylon cinnamon. It is, without a doubt, the tastiest and freshest cinnamon powder we have ever tried.
Genuine cinnamon has been used by man since at least 3000 BC and has been growing naturally in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, India and Burma. Ceylon cinnamon was introduced to the European market by the Portuguese navigator Vasco da Gama in 1502, which he brought from Sri Lanka (Ceylon). Nowadays it is more common to find in the market the Cassia cinnamon variety, which comes from China, rather than the more aromatic genuine cinnamon.
The aroma of the cinnamon tree comes primarily from cinnamon oil as well as further aromas such as eugenol, which also occurs in cloves, and coumarin.
The genuine cinnamon is not only used for seasoning, but also has a long traditional use as medicine that is now scientifically documented (*1).
For example, it is now known that cinnamon stimulates the appetite, promotes digestion and is also useful for bacterial and fungal infections, inflammation and for the regulation of the blood sugar. Cinnamon contains a very high antioxidant capacity of 131'420 μmol TE / 100g (ORAC value = Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity).
It is with regret that we are unable to share with you more information about this product. Various Swiss legislation prevents us (and all other food business operators) from claiming that these products can offer any possible health benefits. We recommend you do your own research on the Internet about this product, - this is an example of a useful website Zentrum der Gesundheit (german).
Why we love organic ceylon cinnamon powder
We are in love with this cinnamon powder - the unique and particularly aromatic cinnamon fragrance and taste, bring the warm childhood memories of the heavenly cinnamon sugar. Coconut sugar with cinnamon surpasses even the taste experience and is also a healthy alternative to white sugar! Apple sauce with cinnamon is another childhood classic.
Recently we have been using cinnamon more regularly, espeically in our evening turmeric drink (Facebook/Blog-Link) as well as in chocolate drinks, and curry dishes and teas. The healing properties of cinnamon are a very welcome "side effect”.
Pearls of Samarkand Cinnamon Powder
The harvesting and drying process of the cinnamon is done very quickly, creating the optimal conditions to achieve the particularly intense and fresh fragrance and taste of this 100% pure Ceylon cinnamon.
Our cinnamon comes from organic farming, from two local fair trade organizations with 2,500 participating farmers. Thanks to the collaboration with Fairtrade, the farmers have their livelihood secured and earn their independence. With the Fairtrade projects such as clean drinking water, school materials for the children and education projects can be paid for.
Organic cultivation and fair trade relations have a very decisive impact on the quality of the product. Many work steps are carried out traditionally and exclusively by hand.
✓Controlled organic cultivation ✓Raw food quality ✓Vegan ✓Fairtrade ✓Premium Quality and very aromatic ✓100% pure nature ✓Without preservatives or other additives

Ginger is not only used as a flavouring, but also has a long history of traditional use as a remedy. Ginger promotes digestion and stimulates the appetite and circulation. It is also considered helpful for inflammation, rheumatism and colds. Ginger contains a very high antioxidant capacity of 39,041 µmol TE/100g (ORAC value = Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacit).

What makes our ginger powder special?
The aroma and flavour of this 100% pure ginger powder from Sri Lanka are particularly fresh and spicy, which is achieved through rapid cleaning, drying and grinding.
Where does our Fairtrade ginger powder come from?
The ginger comes from organic cultivation and fair trade from two local Fairtrade organisations with 2500 participating farmers. The organic cultivation and fair trade relations have a very decisive influence on the quality of the product. Many work steps are carried out traditionally and exclusively by hand.
Thanks to the co-operation with Fairtrade, the farmers can earn a secure and independent living. The Fairtrade premium can be used to pay for projects such as clean drinking water, school materials for the children and educational projects.
Use of ginger powder in everyday life
We use it daily in practically all our cooking recipes (curries, soups & co) as well as drinks, spiced teas and smoothies.
For sore throats and colds or nausea and digestive problems, we have discovered a simple and helpful home remedy that is also super delicious: ½ teaspoon of ginger powder, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 litre of hot water and a squeeze of lemon juice.
