Apricot muesli in raw food quality and without sweeteners Danny Schmid from Rohkost Hüsli in Bülach makes this completely unsweetened apricot muesli by hand. In addition to this, we also have your breakfast muesli and sour cherry muesli in our range. Since the apricot muesli is made from fresh organic ingredients and without preservatives in raw food quality, it only has a best-before date of 3-6 months. Why we love this apricot muesli The crunchy bite together with the nutty taste and the fruity apricots make a very tasty combination. The very subtle sweetness comes solely from the dried apricots. No additional sweetener is used! The pieces are atypically large for a muesli, but are therefore not only suitable for breakfast, but also as a fine snack in between. Apricot muesli from the Rokost Hüsli To boost the enzymes and vitamins, Danny lets the almonds sprout for 12 hours and the buckwheat for 2 days. She uses only organic ingredients out of conviction. As a small company, however, it is not certified organic, so this sour cherry muesli is not sold as organic. Ingredients apricot muesli buckwheat (sprouted) almonds (sprouted) sesame Chia seeds dried apricots Lemons oranges Salt. All ingredients are raw.

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.
