Organic almond puree (almond paste) from Soyana in raw food quality 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).

Atlantic kombu (finger kelp) Caution: Due to its high natural iodine content, Atlantic kumbo is not suitable for consumption. Consmetic applications such as face masks are possible. Kombu or finger kelp (Laminaria digitata) belongs to the genus of large brown algae (kelp) and grows in dense stands in shallow waters in calm, sheltered bays. Atlantic kombu is a thinner and more delicate version of Japanese kombu and can be used in exactly the same way - boiled in soups, fried until crispy or steamed and marinated. Kombu is ideal for all bouillons/stocks, where it improves the flavour and nutrient content. In particular, it is used for cooking beans, as it makes the beans more digestible and softer and reduces the cooking time. Kombu is particularly rich in calcium, potassium and magnesium and is also rich in B vitamins. It also contains mannitol, a sugar alcohol, which gives it a slightly sweet flavour and plenty of glutamic acid, an essential amino acid. Why we love kombu Kombu is a wonderful addition to all cooked preparations, especially beans or pulses and soups, by adding a few strips. Bean dishes in particular cook more quickly and are easier to digest. SamaraNatura Kombu Our sea vegetables are collected wild in the north-west of Ireland (Donegal) and harvested by hand. With the help of a cold air drying system, the seaweed is dried very gently and in raw food quality. Usage To enjoy kombu straight from the bag, tear it into strips. A salty, chewy snack that becomes sweeter in flavour over time. For cooking in general, it is best to soak kombu in water for 10 minutes and then simmer it with the dish for 40 minutes. As an alternative to conventional bouillons: one 8 cm long piece per litre of liquid is simmered for at least 10 minutes. Optionally, remove and cut up and add again later or simmer for longer for more flavour. Salads: Soak kombu in water for an hour (or longer), then marinate (for 1-24 hours) or fry in oil. Chop into bite-sized pieces and mix into the salad. The soaking water is nutritious and should also be used, e.g. as a dressing. Beans: Natural glutamates in kombu enhance the flavour and soften the beans. Boil a 5 cm piece of kombu with the beans for at least 10 minutes, for a thick and rich bean broth until the beans are soft. No need to add salt. Serve as a snack or garnish: Tear or chop the kelp/kombu into bite-sized pieces. Roast at 150°C for 3-5 minutes or fry in a frying pan until crispy. Sprinkle these kelp chips over salads, cereals and pasta or enjoy them straight away as a crispy snack. Sea vegetables in general Sea vegetables are wild plants of the ocean that grow on coral reefs and rocky coasts, usually in salt water. Sea vegetables are enjoyed in many coastal regions around the world and enrich most dishes with flavour and nutrients. Sea vegetables contain almost all the minerals and trace elements that the sea has to offer! In general, sea vegetables are an excellent source of calcium, iodine and sodium, a very good source of folic acid and magnesium and a good source of iron, potassium, vitamin B2 and B5. They also contain vitamin K and trace elements such as selenium and chromium, which are often lacking in land vegetables due to depleted soils. When consumed regularly and over a long period of time, sea vegetables are said to help regulate metabolism and energy levels, stimulate the immune system, promote regular digestion, purify the blood and support the endocrine glands - especially the thyroid gland. Sea vegetables are an ideal substitute for salt in the diet.

Sprouted tree nuts - better digestible The Swiss organic tree nuts are soaked and sprouted in the Naturkostbar manufactory for several hours. They are then dried for 24 hours at a maximum temperature of 42° C. Germination neutralises the phytic acid present in the tree nuts and significantly increases the nutrient density. In addition, the tree nuts can be digested better, which also improves nutrient absorption. Use of sprouted tree nuts Like normal tree nuts, sprouted tree nuts are suitable as a snack on their own or mixed with dried fruit and cocoa beans to make a delicious trail mix.

Mountain lentil sprouts sprouting seed Mountain lentil sprouts are very easy to grow in 2 to 3 days and can be sprouted and eaten raw. They have the highest concentration of vegetable protein of all pulses. They have a mild, aromatic flavour. Why sprouts are healthy Mountain lentils have a high content of protein, fibre, complex carbohydrates and unsaturated fatty acids. They also contain magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, selenium and minerals. They therefore have an invigorating, anti-inflammatory and long-lasting satiating effect. The germination process converts the proteins in mountain lentils into amino acids (the building blocks of life). A kind of "pre-digestion" takes place, whereby the valuable vegetable protein is activated and made bioavailable. Our body can therefore utilise it optimally. Usage Mountain lentil sprouts are perfect as an ingredient in salads and soups. They are also suitable for roast patties and casseroles. Tip: Summer salad with mountain lentil sprouts, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, onions, sprouted seeds and possibly half an avocado. Germinating Sprossit seeds Soak 8 heaped tablespoons in the 3100ml sprouting jar and 5 heaped tablespoons in the 1700ml sprouting jar for 10 hours and then germinate in the sprouting jar for 2-3 days. Rinse every morning and evening. The sprouts can then be stored in the fridge for about a week.

Buy black cumin oil | Cold-pressed & certified organic This certified organic black cumin seed oil is extracted from Egyptian Nigella sativa seeds and cold-pressed at below 37°C in the Naturkostbar Manufaktur in Bern. Black cumin seed oil is a very strong oil with a wonderful flavour. Due to its pungent flavour, it is recommended to mix black cumin oil drop by drop with another cold-pressed oil (e.g. olive oil). Why is black cumin oil healthy? Black cumin seed oil has a high-quality fatty acid spectrum. Due to the high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids and the optimum ratio of omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 fatty acids, it is a particularly valuable edible oil. Unsaturated fatty acids are essential for our organism, i.e. we must consume them through food. They are an essential component of our cells. Black cumin seed oil also contains a considerable amount of essential oils. The high vitamin E content can protect our cells from oxidative stress. How to use black cumin seed oil? Black cumin seed oil is ideal for flavouring Arabic dishes, sauces and pestos or salad dressings. Also delicious in muesli! As a retailer, we are not allowed to make any health claims, so we recommend researching on the internet or in books for use in allergies, hay fever, psoriasis, immune system, ticks. What should I bear in mind when using black cumin oil? Black cumin oil, like other cold-pressed oils (except coconut oil), is sensitive to heat and is therefore mainly suitable for use in cold dishes. Toxic compounds can be formed when heated to high temperatures, e.g. frying. Origin and processing Black cumin thrives in the dry, hot climate of Egypt. Naturkostbar imports black cumin seeds from certified organic farmers with a special appreciation of nature and works closely with local partners. At the factory in Uetendorf near Thun, the organic black cumin seeds are carefully pressed in a water-cooled oil mill. The cooling prevents heat build-up during pressing and the temperature of the oil remains below 37°C at all times. The black cumin oil is not filtered, but the sedimentation process allows the sediment to settle naturally at the bottom before the oil is bottled. Although this process is more complex and takes considerably longer, it ensures that all the valuable fatty acids, vitamins and flavours are optimally preserved. Thymoquinone content Naturkostbar only uses high-quality Egyptian black cumin seeds, which are known for their special quality and natural thymoquinone content. The thymoquinone content of Egyptian black cumin is typically in the range of 0.5 % to 1.5 % - a value that is also used as a guideline for Naturkostbar black cumin oil. It should be noted that black cumin seeds are natural raw materials and the thymoquinone content can vary slightly from batch to batch, depending on harvest conditions and vintage.

Wild organic blueberries - antioxidants and flavour combined To complement our range, we also offer organic blueberry powder from Bosnia. Packed with healthy nutrients like no other fruit - a real superfruit. Why eat dried organic blueberries from wild harvesting? Great snack: delicious and nutritious Wide range of important nutrients and particularly rich in vitamins C, E and B6 as well as iron, fibre and other vital substances such as resveratrol, zeaxanthin, lutein, anthocyanins and other polyphenolic compounds Because they contain such a high amount of phenols, especially gallic acid, blueberries are known as "nerve protectors". According to researchers from Iran, this means that they can literally protect our brains from degeneration, neurotoxicity and oxidative stress. Particularly for a fruit is its high iron content, which boosts energy levels by producing oxygen-rich blood cells throughout the body. In addition, dried wild blueberries contain a very high antioxidant capacity of around 50,000 µmol TE/100g (ORAC value = Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity). For healthy skin Skin care products containing bilberry extract are becoming increasingly popular around the world. It has been reported that the broad spectrum of vitamins and minerals helps to restore hormonal balance, which counteracts acne. This makes blueberries an excellent home remedy for acne. Blueberries also contain resveratrol, a natural sunscreen that can tan your skin. What makes our wild organic blueberries special? 100% natural, gently processed and dried (raw food quality) No preservatives, colourings, sweeteners or other unnatural additives Natural flavour: sweet and sour, fruity and very aromatic Dark purple colour (high quality and purity) and quite dry and crispy Different sizes and origins Dried organic blueberries from wild collection are very difficult to obtain. In northern countries they are also often frozen or freeze-dried. The latest batch of air-dried blueberries comes from Bosnia again and we have packed them in 125g, 250g and 1kg bags. The difference between wild and cultivated blueberries They look almost the same. Both are blue, round and taste great. But what are the differences between these two berries? Wild blueberries compared to cultivated blueberries have a higher vitamin content and a much higher anthocyanin content. Blueberry has become a universal name for blue-coloured berries of the Vaccinium genus, but it is good to know the difference between cultivated blueberries (often called American blueberries or blueberries) and wild blueberries (European blueberries). While cultivated blueberries are grown in various places around the world, wild blueberries grow on small bushes mainly in the northern parts of the Northern Hemisphere. The anthocyanins in the wild blueberry are visible to the eye as blue and red pigments in the flesh, which is juicy and bluish-purple in colour. The cultivated blueberry, on the other hand, has an almost transparent white and somewhat floury flesh. The wild blueberry has certainly been used since the 16th century, both the dried berries and the leaves. Modern interest stems in part from the use of the fruit by British pilots during the Second World War, when pilots noticed that their night vision was better on bombing missions after eating bilberry jam. Nowadays, only garden blueberries (American blueberries) from cultivation are available, which are simply not as good and significantly less rich in vital substances than wild blueberries. How to integrate them into your daily diet? Thanks to their intense, typical blueberry flavour, they are perfect as an addition to muesli, smoothies and as a dessert topping. When making smoothies, we recommend soaking the wild blueberries overnight to make them easier to blend. They also go well in yoghurt (including vegan coconut yoghurt) and honey. A real treat!

Wild Brazil nuts organic Update: Due to the discontinuation of PlantLife (bankruptcy), we have added Brazil nuts from Naturkostbar to our range. Brazil nuts from the Bolivian rainforest are highly valued for their crunchy texture and nutty flavour. They are one of the most characteristic nuts in the world in terms of flavour, appearance and impressive size. The sustainable, natural cultivation and harvest are fascinating: in the rainy season, the ripe pods fall from the trees before being collected by hand and cracked with machetes to reveal the nut kernels. PlantLife works closely with local cooperatives to conserve the rainforest by promoting sustainable farming methods. Paying a fair price for high-quality Brazil nuts is an incentive to save the rainforest from deforestation for agricultural purposes. Brazil nuts are a good source of vitamin E, magnesium, potassium and selenium. Use They are ideal for nibbling or crunching in muesli - but can also be easily grated or sliced and are an interesting flavour addition to cakes, pastries and desserts.

Organic camelina oil, cold-pressed from Swiss camelina seeds Update: Naturkostbar has discontinued camelina oil. As an alternative, we have now added the oil from Oelerei Fehraltorf to our range. It is also made from Swiss organic camelina in raw food quality. This golden-yellow organic camelina oil is obtained from Swiss camelina seeds and pressed at temperatures below 30 degrees Celsius. To maintain the raw food quality, the producer uses a special water-cooled oil mill. Camelina oil is very rich (approx. 35%) in omega 3 fatty acids, also known as alpha-linolenic acid. In contrast to linseed oil, camelina oil has a much longer shelf life (becomes bitter much less quickly) and still has a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Use of camelina oil With its wonderful taste, which is reminiscent of peas, camelina oil is ideal for flavouring vegetable dishes, salads and dip sauces. Like most cold-pressed oils, this camelina oil is sensitive to heat and is therefore primarily suitable for use in cold dishes. Toxic compounds can form when heated to high temperatures, e.g. when frying. To preserve the quality of the oil for as long as possible, we recommend storing camelina oil in the refrigerator.

Cold-pressed organic cedar nut oil - the gold of the taiga The precious, amber-coloured cedar nut oil has been used throughout Russia for centuries. The flavour is pleasantly nutty. Why consume cedar nut oil? Siberian cedar nut oil is generally regarded as strengthening. In addition, various cosmetics in Russia contain cedar nut oil due to its beneficialproperties for maintaining healthy skin .Cedar nut oil is one of the few oils with a high vitamin E content (approx. 30 mg per 100 g). Vitamin E can help protect cells from oxidative stress. It contains over 26% monounsaturated fatty acids (monounsaturated fatty acids) and over 65% polyunsaturated fatty acids (polyunsaturated fatty acids). We regularly use cedar nut oil in cold dishes because we love the flavour and like to vary the oils a little. What makes Siberian cedar nut oil special? Due to the careful processing and cold pressing of the organic cedar nuts from the Altai Mountains in Siberia, many vital substances are retained. How to use cedar nut oil? The oil tastes particularly delicious with leaf or mixed salads, slightly warm dishes and raw food specialities. Take 1 teaspoon (3 ml) up to 3 times a day. Like most cold-pressed oils, heating significantly damages the quality. It should therefore only be used for cold to slightly warm dishes. Advice: Store in a cool, dry place away from light, as cedar nut oil is very sensitive to UV light. In particular, direct sunlight should be avoided. Store in the refrigerator after first opening. How is cedar nut oil produced?The organic cedar nuts are cold-pressed at regular intervals in Germany using stamp presses.

Update: Our SamaraNatura cedar nuts are sold out. The new batch should be available from 17.04.2026. To bridge the gap, we have bought a few bags from Naturkostbar. They are of the same quality and price. Cedar nuts from Siberia - a treasure of nature Cedar nuts taste similar to other pine nuts, but slightly sweeter and stronger. Unlike almost all commercially available pine nuts, our raw cedar nuts are not heat-treated. Why eat cedar nuts? Cedar nuts contain around 55% valuable unsaturated fatty acids, primarily linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid as well as the rare pinoleic/pinolenic acid. They are rich in tocopherols (vitamin E) as antioxidants as well as high-quality proteins (approx. 17%). They also contain many minerals (especially magnesium, potassium, phosphorus), trace elements (copper, manganese, zinc), vitamins (K and B) and flavonoids. For centuries, the inhabitants of Siberia have valued the widespread cedar (Pinus sibirica), a Swiss stone pine, not only as a source of valuable wood, but also for its tasty and highly nutritious seeds, which are found in the cedar cones. What makes our cedar nuts special? Almost all commercially available pine nuts are treated with heat to make them last longer. Our cedar nuts, on the other hand, are completely untreated, which preserves the broad spectrum of nutrients. Where do our cedar nuts come from? They come from the Lake Baikal region in Siberia and are harvested by hand. The Siberian pine is a true treasure of Siberian nature, forming vast areas of unspoilt forests throughout northern Russia. The huge, magnificent trees (up to 40 metres tall) grow slowly and the first cones with seeds only appear when the trees are around 30 years old. They are among the longest-lived tree species in existence, as they can live for 300 to 800 years! The evergreen cedar is a storehouse of cosmic light energy, capturing the energy rays from cosmic space in its millions of needles during its long life. Even thousands of years ago, ancient peoples valued the properties of the cedar tree, which they called "the eternal". The brushwood was used to prepare a vitamin drink, the resin was used to heal wounds and ulcers, and the seeds and their oil helped to survive the long, harsh winters in Siberia. How to use cedar nuts in everyday life? Cedar nuts taste delicious on their own as a snack or together with dried fruit and other nuts, goji berries and cocoa nibs. They can be sprinkled on salads and other dishes or added to mayonnaise, creams and milk. Cedar nuts add a certain elegance to your cooking. Cedar nuts and their oil are also very good for skin care and regeneration. We recommend keeping cedar nuts in the fridge after opening, especially in summer.

Organic Ceylon cinnamon powder (100% natural) - premium quality you can taste This premium cinnamon powder from Sri Lanka, the original home of the cinnamon tree, is a fine and pure, particularly intensely flavoured cinnamon powder made from real Ceylon cinnamon! It is without doubt the tastiest and freshest cinnamon powder we have ever tasted. True cinnamon has been used by humans since at least 3000 BC and grows naturally in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, India and Burma. Ceylon cinnamon came to Europe with the Portuguese navigator Vasco da Gama in 1502, which he brought back from Sri Lanka (Ceylon). Nowadays, it is more common to find the cassia cinnamon variety on the market, which comes from China, rather than the more aromatic true cinnamon. The flavour of the cinnamon tree comes primarily from the cinnamon oil and other aromatic substances such as eugenol, which is also found in cloves. True cinnamon is not only used for flavouring, but also has other interesting applications (*1). Among other things, cinnamon is known to stimulate the appetite and aid digestion. It is also considered helpful for bacterial and fungal infections, inflammation and for lowering blood sugar. Cinnamon contains a very high antioxidant capacity of 131,420 µmol TE/100g (ORAC value = Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacit). Since we as a retailer are only allowed to make a few specific statements about the health effects of foods, we recommend that you research information about this product yourself on the Internet, e.g. at Zentrum der Gesundheit. Why we love organic Ceylon cinnamon powder We love this premium cinnamon powder because of its truly unique and particularly aromatic cinnamon scent and flavour, which is not only associated with childhood memories of heavenly cinnamon sugar. Coconut sugar with cinnamon even surpasses the flavour experience and is also a healthy alternative to white sugar! Applesauce with cinnamon is another classic. Recently, we have also been using cinnamon more and more in our evening turmeric drink (Facebook/blog link) and in chocolate drinks, as well as in curry dishes and teas. The beneficial properties of cinnamon are a very welcome "side effect". SamaraNatura Cinnamon The aroma and flavour of this 100% pure Ceylon cinnamon are particularly intense and fresh, which is achieved through rapid processing and optimal conditions! This cinnamon comes from organic cultivation and fair trade from two local Fairtrade organisations with 2500 participating farmers. 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.

Organic Chlorella Vulgaris Powder (100% natural) - The green miracle What is chlorella? Chlorella is a microscopically small, single-celled algae that occurs naturally in fresh water. It is the oldest form of plant life known to us that has a real cell nucleus. Chlorella has been used and revered as a powerful superfood in many traditional cultures. Why consume chlorella? Chlorella provides a veritable flood of nutrients for the body. Minerals, rare trace elements, vitamins (including vitamin D) and a broad spectrum of enzymes (including pepsin). Chlorella consists of 60% complete and easily digestible proteins. The plant also contains essential fatty acids, nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), which are important for cell regeneration, and secondary plant substances with disease-defence properties such as carotenoids, lutein, astaxanthin and others. Chlorella has the highest chlorophyll content of all known plants, four times as much as normal plants! Chlorophyll is also known as green plant blood, as its molecular composition hardly differs from human haemoglobin. Chlorophyll has antioxidant properties, purifies the blood and supplies it with oxygen. Chlorella is known as a valuable aid in protecting the body from environmental toxins and radiation. Its fibrous outer cell walls are able to bind and eliminate heavy metals (amalgam, cadmium, lead), pesticides, medicines and other toxins that accumulate in the body. It is therefore very important to drink plenty of water when taking chlorella. Because of its nutritional richness, chlorella is nature's ideal food. When taken together with spirulina, you have almost perfect ratios of the most important nutrients the body needs. Chlorella has been and continues to be the subject of intense research and this tiny, fantastic creature may yet be of great help with global and worrying problems such as cancer, nuclear disasters and environmental pollution, as well as nutritional issues and mental disorders. What makes our organic chlorella powder from Taiwan special? Our chlorella powder is 100% natural and additive-free. Our chlorella comes from an algae farm in southern Taiwan, which was the first to be recognised by the German organic farming association Naturland. The algae grow outdoors under intense sunlight in pure fresh water of drinking water quality. The cultivation of only strong, healthy strains of microalgae guarantees first-class quality. The microalgae are gently harvested at the time of highest nutrient density, then pre-centrifuged and spray-dried in seconds using a special process. The hard cell wall of chlorella is gently broken up using a vacuum process to make it easier to digest. What makes chlorella unique? Chlorella can quadruple in quantity every 20 hours, and no other plant on earth can do that! This is due to the so-called Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF), a complex of many substances in very small quantities, including RNA, DNA, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, the exact properties of which have not yet been identified. However, laboratory tests have shown that the addition of CGF stimulates growth processes by increasing the growth of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus by up to 400%. Because chlorella has a perfect single reproductive cell, it is more advanced than the other more common green microalgae. This is why its DNA / RNA is said to be of better quality. Nucleic acids are important for cell regeneration and support the production of new tissue. How to use chlorella powder? Chlorella can be taken in tablet form or as a powder. The tablets are easier to take, but their quality can be affected by the possible use of binding agents and heating during manufacture (not applicable to our tablets). Powdered chlorella can be mixed into vegetable and fruit juices or smoothies. It adds a rich, thick texture to any liquid. Chlorella powder can also be added to foods such as cream cheese, mayonnaise, ice cream, pasta and rice to enhance flavour and nutritional value. As it contains growth-promoting substances, it can also be a valuable ingredient for bread and fermented drinks. Recommended dosages: Start with 400 mg per day and slowly take more as your body acclimatises to chlorella. Children and beginners: 400 mg - 3 g per day Adults: 5 - 6 g per day For detoxification: 20 - 25 g per day (drink plenty of water!) For severe health problems, a higher dose of up to 30 g per day may be necessary until health improves. Chlorella can generally be taken safely in high doses. Under normal conditions, we recommend the regular intake of chlorella together with spirulina in a ratio of 1:2 (5g chlorella + 10g spirulina). This provides the body with all the necessary nutrients in a balanced way. Some effects of chlorella are immediately noticeable, e.g. the improvement in bad breath, but it can take 3-6 months for chlorella's nourishing powers to fully unfold.

Chlorella Vulgaris Tablets (100% natural) Chlorella is a microscopically small single-celled algae that occurs naturally in fresh water. It is the oldest known form of plant life that has a true cell nucleus. Chlorella has been used and revered as a powerful food in many traditional cultures. Why consume chlorella? Chlorella provides many valuable nutrients for the body. Minerals, rare trace elements, vitamins (including vitamin D) and a broad spectrum of enzymes (including pepsin). Chlorella consists of 60% complete and easily digestible proteins. It also contains essential fatty acids and secondary plant substances such as carotenoids, lutein, astaxanthin and others. Chlorella has the highest chlorophyll content of all known plants, four times as much as normal plants! Chlorophyll (plant green) is said to have a detoxifying and antioxidant effect on our body. What makes our chlorella tablets special? Our chlorella tablets are made from 100% natural organic chlorella microalgae powder. The tablets are pressed on site from fresh powder without any pressing aids or additives. To ensure the high quality requirements, each batch of organic chlorella tablets is checked for toxins, heavy metals and other contaminants by an independent laboratory in Germany. Where does our chlorella come from and how is it processed? Our chlorella comes from an algae farm in southern Taiwan, which was the first to be recognised by the German organic farming association Naturland. Laboratory tests have shown that this chlorella (along with only one other) is one of the cleanest chlorella strains in the world! The algae grow outdoors under intense sunlight in pure fresh water of drinking water quality. The cultivation of only strong, healthy microalgae strains guarantees first-class quality. The microalgae are gently harvested at the time of highest nutrient density, then pre-centrifuged and spray-dried within 3 seconds using a special process. The hard cell wall of chlorella is gently broken up using a vacuum process to make it easier to digest. During this process, the temperature of the mass does not rise above 40°C -> raw food quality. What makes chlorella unique? Chlorella can quadruple in quantity every 20 hours, and no other plant on earth can do that! This is due to the so-called Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF), a complex of many substances in very small quantities, including RNA, DNA, amino acids, vitamins and minerals, the exact properties of which have not yet been identified. However, laboratory tests have shown that the addition of CGF stimulates growth processes by increasing the growth of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus by up to 400%. Because of its nutritional richness, chlorella is nature's ideal food. When you use chlorella together with spirulina, you have almost perfect ratios of all the important nutrients the body needs. Chlorella has been the subject of intensive research. Use: Chlorella tablets Chlorella can be taken in tablet form or as a powder. The tablets are easier to take, but their quality can be affected by the possible use of binding agents and heating during production (does not apply to our tablets). Powdered chlorella can be mixed into vegetable and fruit juices or smoothies. It adds a rich, thick texture to any liquid. Chlorella can also be added to foods such as cream cheese, mayonnaise, ice cream, pasta and rice. Recommended amounts of chlorella tablets: Start with 400 mg (1 tablet) per day and increase slowly as your body becomes accustomed to chlorella. Children and beginners: 1 - 8 tablets per day Adults: 12 - 15 tablets per day Composition Chlorella tablets 100% chlorella, no tableting aids.

Virgin coconut oil - the valuable all-round product Update: Our SamaraNatura coconut oil is unfortunately sold out. To bridge the gap (until the new batch arrives) we are offering coconut oil from Dr Goerg and Naturkostbar. Why buy organic coconut oil? Natural, aromatic flavour Use in the kitchen and for body care High heat stability For weight loss support The wholesome coconut oil with its naturally fragrant, mildly aromatic flavour is a must in the kitchen! A major advantage of coconut oil over other oils is that it is very heat-stable. This makes it ideal for cooking, frying and baking. It also has a long shelf life. Coconut fat 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 in coconut (so-called MCT fats) - and in particular the high lauric acid content - are of great nutritional benefit. Breast milk also consists largely of these medium-chain fatty acids, which themselves do not contain cholesterol, but promote the production of healthy, vascular-protective HDL cholesterol. Coconut oil also has valuable properties for cosmetics. Coconut oil nourishes and moisturises the skin and hair, promotes well-being, a beautiful appearance and a vital radiance. This is also recognised in Asia, where coconut oil has been used for centuries as a rich source of nutrition, beauty and care products. What makes our coconut oil special? Extraction from fresh fruit flesh Organic certification Gentle processing Coconut palms are ancient cultivated plants and have been cultivated for at least 3000 years. With coconut oil, it is particularly important to pay attention to the quality of the product, as many commercially available coconut fats are industrially hardened and deodorised. For our virgin coconut oil, the flesh of freshly harvested organic coconuts is gently dried for one to two days and then cold-pressed. The result is a coconut oil with a subtle coconut flavour. The coconut oil is certified organic, unbleached, not deodorised and without any additives. The unhydrogenated, unrefined "Virgin Coconut Oil" impresses with its excellent properties and particularly high content of valuable lauric acid. Both sizes (500ml and 1 litre) are filled in a practical, resealable white jar. This can later be used as a storage jar for powders, nuts and much more. Where does our coconut oil come from? The current batch comes from the Philippines. Tips for use: In the kitchen and for body care You can use the oil, which acquires a solid consistency in the fridge, as a butter substitute, spread or for salad dressings, for example. 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 subtly exotic flavour. Very tasty in desserts and homemade chocolates. Insider tip: A teaspoon of warm coconut oil poured over ice cream. Used as a hair treatment or conditioner, it makes brittle hair supple and shiny. Massage coconut oil into dry hair, leave on for 10-15 minutes and then wash out with a mild shampoo. Coconut oil has a solid consistency at room temperature and begins to melt and turn into oil at around 25 degrees.

Wird über eine gesunde Lebensweise und Ernährung diskutiert, fallen rasch die Worte Rohkost und Vitalkost. Auch bei Entschlackung und Detox-Diäten spielen Rohkost sowie Vitalkost eine wichtige Rolle. Und das hat einen Grund. Denn diese Lebensmittel sind weitestgehend naturbelassen und werden bei der Verarbeitung möglichst wenig erhitzt und beinhalten daher noch praktisch alle der wichtigen Inhaltsstoffe, die dem Körper guttun. Viele Lebensmittel werden heute gekocht, pasteurisiert oder auf andere Weise verarbeitet, bevor sie abgepackt und zum Verkauf angeboten werden. Dabei gehen eine Menge der wesentlichen Vitamine und Enzyme verloren, die eigentlich in den Nahrungsmitteln stecken würden. Bei Rohkost und Vitalkost ist dies anders. Hier wird darauf geachtet, dass diese möglichst schonend verarbeitet werden.
Bio- & Rohkostqualität, wo möglich
Das Ziel von SamaraNatura ist es, möglichst viele Lebensmittel in Bio- & Rohkostqualität anzubieten. Seit Herbst 2015 sind wir zudem als Unternehmen selbst nach Schweizer Recht Bio-zertifziert. Diese Zertifizierung wird jährlich von der Zertifizierungsstelle bio.inspecta in Frick überprüft und sämtliche Produkte sind auf Easy-Cert aufgeführt. Auch unser Logistiker ist Bio-zertifiziert. Leider sind nicht alle Produkte, welche ohne Pestizide angebaut werden auch Bio-zertifiziert. Aufgrund des grossen Einzugsgebietes ist beispielsweise der Sanddorn Ursaft aus Wildsammlung nicht zertifiziert, obwohl er vollkommen unbehandelt ist. Auch Rohkostqualität ist nicht in jedem Fall möglich. In diesem Fall streben wird danach, die bestmögliche Alternative zu bieten, um auch Nahrungsmittel, die etwa aufgrund der Haltbarkeit pasteurisiert werden müssen, so naturnah wie möglich anzubieten und die Verarbeitung so gering und schonend wie möglich zu halten.
Vitalkost einfach in den Alltag integrieren
Ein wesentlicher Vorteil von Vitalkost besteht darin, dass diese Lebensmittel oft direkt in der Form verzehrt werden können, in der sie angeboten werden und in den Handel kommen. Vitale Lebensmittel in Rohkostqualität, die sich sehr einfach in jeden Speiseplan einfügen lassen und sich auch als schmackhafte Snacks für zwischendurch eignen sind beispielsweise:
- Goji-Beeren aus biologischem Anbau
- Cashewkerne
- Nussmuse
- Weisse Maulbeeren in Bio-Qualität
- Kokos-Chips
- Hunza-Aprikosen (Wildaprikosen mit Stein) aus biologischem Anbau
- Kokoswasser als kühle Erfrischung
- Granatapfelkerne
Die Lebensmittel sind praktisch abgepackt, sodass sie sich leicht mitnehmen und auch unterwegs einfach verzehren lassen. Immer genau dann, wenn ein neuer Energieschub nötig ist oder auch einfach nur, um den Körper auch im Alltag mit all den Stoffen zu versorgen, die er benötigt. Denn viele Menschen tun sich schwer damit, in unserer schnelllebigen Zeit gesund zu essen und einen Speiseplan zu verfolgen, der dem Körper all die Nährstoffe liefert, die nötig wären.
Warum ist Superfood so gesund?
Bei vielen Nahrungsmitteln, die als Rohkost oder Vitalkost verfügbar sind, handelt es sich um so genannte Superfoods. Als solche werden Früchte, Nüsse, Algen, Wurzeln und andere Produkte der Natur bezeichnet, die aufgrund ihrer Inhaltsstoffe als wahre Wunder-Nahrung bezeichnet werden können. Vielfach werden und wurden diese in der traditionellen Medizin verschiedener Regionen und Kulturen als Heilpflanzen angesehen. Ihre grosse Stärke liegt darin, dass sie eine überdurchschnittlich hohe Menge an Vitaminen, Enzymen, Mineralstoffen und anderen Elementen enthalten, die dazu beitragen, uns vital und gesund zu fühlen und auch zu sein.
Werden diese in Form von Rohkost verzehrt, also ohne sie vorher beim Konservieren oder Trocknen über 42 Grad Celsius zu erhitzen, zu kochen oder ähnlich zu verarbeiten, ist der Effekt natürlich umso grösser, da die Inhaltsstoffe auch wirklich noch vorhanden sind. Sämtliche Nuss-Muse unseres Berner Lieferanten werden im schonenden Steinmahlverfahren während 2 bis 3 Tagen produziert. Dadurch bleiben auch die natürlichen und leckeren Aromen optimal erhalten.
Vitalkost als Pulver
Nicht immer muss Vitalkost als Rohkost verzehrt werden. Die grosse Auswahl an Produkten ermöglicht es, die wertvollen Zutaten auch beim Kochen einfach und praktisch zu verwenden. Ein Klassiker darunter ist selbstverständlich das Kurkuma-Pulver. Das Gewürz, das in der Ayurvedischen Ernährung vielseitige Anwendung findet, sieht auf den ersten Blick dem Curry sehr ähnlich und wird auch gerne zu Curry-Rezepten verwendet. Darüber hinaus wird es in Suppen, Aufläufen und Reisspeisen ebenso gerne verwendet wie auch in Smoothies. Ein in unseren Breitengraden noch weniger bekanntes Nahrungs- und Würzmittel in Pulverform ist hingegen Mesquite. DasMesquite-Pulver findet in der traditionellen Küche nord- und südamerikanischer Ureinwohner-Völker Anwendung und eignet sich perfekt als gesundes Süssungsmittel. Mit seinem relativ hohen Proteingehalt sowie vielen Mineralstoffen wie Eisen, Kalzium, Magnesium, Eisen und Zink versorgt es den Körper mit wichtigen Nährstoffen und fasziniert gleichzeitig durch einen besonderen, Caramel ähnlichen Geschmack.
Öle zum Verfeinern und Abschmecken
Perfekt zur Zubereitung von Rohkost wie etwa für Salate eignen sich wirklich kaltgepresste Öle. Die Öle im Shop von SamaraNatura sind alle kalt gepresst und aus biologischen Samen. Durch die schonende Gewinnung bleiben die natürlichen Aromen, Vitamine und die Fettsäuren optimal erhalten. Einige unserer Öle werden darüber hinaus aus Schweizer Ölsamen hergestellt wie etwa das kaltgepresste Schweizer Bio-Hanföl oder das Leindotteröl. Kaltgepresste Öle sind hitzeempfindlich. Bei starkem Erhitzen, z.B. Braten, können giftige Verbindungen entstehen. Eine der wenigen Ausnahmen ist das Kokosöl, welches vorwiegend aus gesättigten Fettsäuren besteht sowie das High-Oleic Bio Sonnenblumenöl.
Wertvolle Rohkost aus dem Meer
Nicht nur der biologische Anbau an Land bietet wertvolle Superfoods und energie- wie auch vitaminreiche Rohkost. Eine Vielzahl an nähr- und mineralstoffreichen Nahrungsmitteln stammt auch aus dem Meer.
Dazu gehören:
- Meeresalgen-Würz-Mix, sehr praktisch, da die kleingehackten Algen sich einfach in fast alle Gerichte streuen lassen und den Gerichten KEINEN bzw. einen kaum bemerkbaren Algengeschmack geben
- Meeres-Algen für Salat
- Fingertang oder Atlantischer Kombu
- Riementang
- Dulse oder Lappentang
- Kelp-Nudeln als Alternative zu Pasta: einfach einweichen und mit einer Pasta-Sauce mischen
Einige dieser Meeresgemüse enthalten hohe Mengen an Eisen, Folsäure, Magnesium, Selen, Chrom und vielen anderen Elementen, die wir im normalen Alltag oft nur zu selten und in zu geringen Mengen zu uns nehmen. Darüber hinaus geben Algen und Tang verschiedenen Rezepten eine ganz besondere Geschmacksnote, die vor allem bei Freunden mediterraner und asiatischer Küche sehr gut ankommt. Damit sorgt auch diese Rohkost sowie Vitalkost für willkommene kulinarische Abwechslung. Wir beziehen den grössten Teil unserer Meeresgemüse aus dem wilden, wenig berührten Nordwesten von Irlands Atlantikküste.
Mikroalgen aus Aquakultur
Neben den oben beschriebenen Meeresgemüse (Makroalgen) bieten sich Mikroalgen als natürliche Nahrungsergänzung wunderbar an. Sie haben mit rund 60% Anteil nicht nur den weitaus höchsten Gehalt an Proteinen aller natürlicher Lebensmittel, sondern sind auch reich an anderen wichtigen Nährstoffen wie Mineralien und Chlorophyll. Mikroalgen für die Ernährung werden in Aquakultur angebaut. SamaraNatura bietet u.a. folgende Mikroalgen für die menschliche Ernährung an:
- Spirulina mit seinen leicht verdaulichen Proteinen, in Pulver- oder Tablettenform
- Chlorella, in Tablettenform
- Marines Phytoplankton, in ionischer Spurenelement-Lösung

DasMesquite-Pulver findet in der traditionellen Küche nord- und südamerikanischer Ureinwohner-Völker Anwendung und eignet sich perfekt als gesundes Süssungsmittel. Mit seinem relativ hohen Proteingehalt sowie vielen Mineralstoffen wie Eisen, Kalzium, Magnesium, Eisen und Zink versorgt es den Körper mit wichtigen Nährstoffen und fasziniert gleichzeitig durch einen besonderen, Caramel ähnlichen Geschmack.
Öle zum Verfeinern und Abschmecken
Perfekt zur Zubereitung von Rohkost wie etwa für Salate eignen sich wirklich kaltgepresste Öle. Die Öle im Shop von SamaraNatura sind alle kalt gepresst und aus biologischen Samen. Durch die schonende Gewinnung bleiben die natürlichen Aromen, Vitamine und die Fettsäuren optimal erhalten. Einige unserer Öle werden darüber hinaus aus Schweizer Ölsamen hergestellt wie etwa das kaltgepresste Schweizer Bio-Hanföl oder das Leindotteröl. Kaltgepresste Öle sind hitzeempfindlich. Bei starkem Erhitzen, z.B. Braten, können giftige Verbindungen entstehen. Eine der wenigen Ausnahmen ist das Kokosöl, welches vorwiegend aus gesättigten Fettsäuren besteht sowie das High-Oleic Bio Sonnenblumenöl.
Wertvolle Rohkost aus dem Meer
Nicht nur der biologische Anbau an Land bietet wertvolle Superfoods und energie- wie auch vitaminreiche Rohkost. Eine Vielzahl an nähr- und mineralstoffreichen Nahrungsmitteln stammt auch aus dem Meer.
Dazu gehören:
- Meeresalgen-Würz-Mix, sehr praktisch, da die kleingehackten Algen sich einfach in fast alle Gerichte streuen lassen und den Gerichten KEINEN bzw. einen kaum bemerkbaren Algengeschmack geben
- Meeres-Algen für Salat
- Fingertang oder Atlantischer Kombu
- Riementang
- Dulse oder Lappentang
- Kelp-Nudeln als Alternative zu Pasta: einfach einweichen und mit einer Pasta-Sauce mischen
Einige dieser Meeresgemüse enthalten hohe Mengen an Eisen, Folsäure, Magnesium, Selen, Chrom und vielen anderen Elementen, die wir im normalen Alltag oft nur zu selten und in zu geringen Mengen zu uns nehmen. Darüber hinaus geben Algen und Tang verschiedenen Rezepten eine ganz besondere Geschmacksnote, die vor allem bei Freunden mediterraner und asiatischer Küche sehr gut ankommt. Damit sorgt auch diese Rohkost sowie Vitalkost für willkommene kulinarische Abwechslung. Wir beziehen den grössten Teil unserer Meeresgemüse aus dem wilden, wenig berührten Nordwesten von Irlands Atlantikküste.
Mikroalgen aus Aquakultur
Neben den oben beschriebenen Meeresgemüse (Makroalgen) bieten sich Mikroalgen als natürliche Nahrungsergänzung wunderbar an. Sie haben mit rund 60% Anteil nicht nur den weitaus höchsten Gehalt an Proteinen aller natürlicher Lebensmittel, sondern sind auch reich an anderen wichtigen Nährstoffen wie Mineralien und Chlorophyll. Mikroalgen für die Ernährung werden in Aquakultur angebaut. SamaraNatura bietet u.a. folgende Mikroalgen für die menschliche Ernährung an:
- Spirulina mit seinen leicht verdaulichen Proteinen, in Pulver- oder Tablettenform
- Chlorella, in Tablettenform
- Marines Phytoplankton, in ionischer Spurenelement-Lösung
