Maca Max black is made from black maca roots from the Junin region in Peru. Brief, strong heating breaks down the starch contained in the maca, making it easier to digest than raw maca powder. In addition, the nutrients and vital substances contained can be better absorbed.
This heating process is also known as "gelatinizing", which is why the term "gelatinized" is sometimes used in English. However, this process has nothing to do with gelatin made from bone. Maca Max black is 100% vegan. Anyone who reacts with flatulence to our maca powder in raw food quality can use Maca Max black as an alternative.
The maca root has been a staple food of the Andean indigenous peoples for thousands of years and is an excellent source of energy and endurance.

Start with 1-2 capsules, then increase to 3x 3 capsules per day as required. Take capsules with a little water.

It is used by professional athletes all the way to the elderly in order to provide them with additional energy and stamina.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.

Flohsamenschalen (Bio) aus Indien | Vegan & glutenfrei
Diese kleinen, aber kraftvollen Samenschalen sind reich an Ballaststoffen, Vitaminen und Mineralien und können auf vielfältige Weise deine Gesundheit und Ernährung bereichern.
Was sind Flohsamenschalen und woher stammen sie?
Flohsamen sind die Samenschalen der Pflanze Plantago ovata, welche mehrheitlich in Indien und Pakistan angepflanzt wird.
Warum Flohsamenschalen konsumieren?
Die in den Flohsamenschalen enthaltenen Ballaststoffe (Flosine-Schleimpolysaccharide) können mehr als das 50-fache an Wasser binden. Im Darm führt dies zu einer Volumenzunahme des Stuhls, was wiederum die Peristaltik (Darmbewegung) anregt. Zudem machen die Schleimstoffe den Stuhl gleitfähiger.
Unterstützung der Verdauung: Die hohe Konzentration an löslichen Ballaststoffen in den Flohsamenschalen fördert eine gesunde Verdauung. Die Schalen nehmen in Verbindung mit Flüssigkeit an Volumen zu.
Sättigungsgefühl und Gewichtsmanagement: Die Schalen quellen im Magen auf und vermitteln ein langanhaltendes Sättigungsgefühl, was die Kontrolle des Appetits erleichtern kann.
Regulierung des Blutzuckerspiegels: Die Ballaststoffe in den Flohsamenschalen können dazu beitragen, den Anstieg des Blutzuckerspiegels nach dem Essen zu verlangsamen.
Cholesterinspiegel-Senkung: Durch die Bindung von Gallensäuren können Flohsamenschalen den Cholesterinspiegel senken.
Was macht unsere Flohsamenschalen besonders?
Unsere Bio Flohsamenschalen sind in Rohkostqualität und haben den höchstmöglichen Reinheitsgrad von 99%, d.h. es können maximal 1% ganze Flohsamen enthalten sein. Die Flohsamenschalen sind geschmacksneutral.
Wie können Flohsamenschalen in die tägliche Ernährung integriert werden?
Ballaststoffreiche Smoothies: Gib einen Esslöffel Flohsamenschalen in deinen Lieblings-Smoothie und verleihe ihm eine Extraportion Ballaststoffe.
Bindemittel in Backwaren & für Suppen, Saucen und Cremen: Bsp: Ersetze Eier in Backrezepten durch eine Mischung aus Wasser und Flohsamenschalen, um deine Backwaren vegan und ballaststoffreich zu machen.
Joghurt und Müesli: Rühre die Samenschalen in Joghurt oder Müsli ein, um den Nährwert deiner Mahlzeit zu erhöhen.
Verwendung und Dosierung von Flohsamenschalen
Bis zu 3x täglich 1-2 Teelöffel, maximal 20g pro Tag.
Eine typische Dosierung liegt bei 1 bis 2 Esslöffeln pro Tag. Beginne mit einer geringeren Menge und erhöhe sie allmählich, um festzustellen, wie dein Körper darauf reagiert.
Für eine optimale Wirkung, die Flohsamen 30 bis 60 Minuten vor der Mahlzeit oder zwei Stunden danach einnehmen.
Wichtig: Nach der Einnahme rasch 2 Gläser Wasser trinken.

Maca hat einen einzigartigen Geschmack und kann vielen verschiedenen Speisen beigefügt werden. Manche Leute finden, der Geschmack von Maca-Pulver erinnere etwas an Caramel mit einer peppigen Note. Maca-Pulver kann z.B. in Reis-, Nuss- oder Hanfmilch gerührt oder einfach ins Müesli gemischt werden. Mischen Sie Maca-Pulver mit Wasser, Milch Ihrer Wahl oder geben Sie es zu Saft, Smoothie, Müesli oder rohen Desserts. Maca ist auch ein gutes Bindemittel für Suppen und deshalb eine leckere Ergänzung dazu. Wir mögen Maca vor allem zusammen mit Haferflocken und als Zutat zu unseren rohen Schokolade-Rezepten.

Es ist ratsam, mit einer kleinen Menge von ½ TL pro Tag zu beginnen und auf bis zu 1-2 EL pro Tag zu steigern. Im Gegensatz zu Soja-Produkten, der mexikanischen Yamswurzel und Leinsamen enthält Maca keine Hormone.
Hinweis: Ein weit verbreitetes Missverständnis über Superlebensmittel und Kräuter ist, dass es eine Standard-Verwendungsmenge gibt. Im Allgemeinen liegt die üblicherweise empfohlene tägliche Einnahme bei den meisten Superfoods wie auch Maca zwischen 1 TL und 3 EL pro Tag, aufgeteilt in zwei oder drei Dosen. Am besten ist es mit 1 TL pro Tag anzufangen und die Menge an die persönlichen Bedürfnisse anzupassen.

Organic Chia Seeds – Little Power Seeds
The chia seed is an ancient superfood that has been used by the Mayans, Aztecs and Incas as early as 3500BC. It comes from the desert plant salvia hispanica and it grows in southern Mexico. Chia means "strength" in the language of the Mayans and was used as a “running food” because messengers could run all day with the help of these tiny seeds. Chia seeds were considered medicine and were actually prized more than gold due to their incredible health enhancing properties.
Athletes from around the world now include chia in their nutritional regimens during training. Chia is rich in valuable protein, calcium and especially omega-3 fatty acids. It contains a very balanced ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which is rare in foods.
Chia seeds contains potent antioxidants, which not only help you to fight disease and defy age naturally, it also keeps the seeds from going off like other seeds such as flax.
Chia can help with weight loss as it makes you feel full longer because the seeds absorb about ten times its weight in water and form a gel.
Why we love Chia Seeds
Chia seeds are a relatively new addition to our diets. We love them because they are so practical to use and without you noticing it, your body will have that extra dose of nutrition and will be able to assimilate foods much better, at the same time having an extra dose of energy and well being added to your mind and soul!
We have been experimenting with these seeds and the result is that we feel uplifted and cheerful, a little bit like cacao does, but without the intensity too much cacao can give you at times.
If you are of an athletic type, you will notice the difference in your performance and endurance straight away – it is really something extraordinary.
Last but not least: Chia is a very economical, concentrated food. 1/3 cup of dry chia seeds makes about 500g of chia gel. Depending on how much gel you use, those 500g will likely last, on average, about four days. You do not need more than 1-2 tablespoons of Chia gel a day.
SamaraNatura Chia Seeds
Our chia seeds are heirloom quality and grown without use of pesticides and agrochemicals. There is no heat being used in the processing of our Chia seeds. They go through a shaking procedure to clean them, that’s all!
Please note: We are selling chia seeds conform Novel Food Reg. for uses in bread products with max. 5 %.
Use
The most common way to eat Chia is to first soak the seeds. They can very rapidly absorb a large amount of liquid, between 9-12 times their volume, in under 10 minutes.
The Basic Gel
To make a basic Chia gel, simply add 1/3 cup of seeds to 2 cups of water. Stir the mixture well to avoid clumping, then leave it in your fridge in a sealed jar. This will yield around 500g of Chia gel and you can begin to eat the gel if you like as just 10 minutes is enough time for the gel to be formed. More of the nutrients will be easily accessible after a few hours however, so many people like to make up a batch like this and leave it in the fridge. It will stay good for some days and you can just reach into the fridge and take out some of the ready-made gel whenever you need.
You might add it to smoothies, mix it with salad dressings, make puddings and mueslis, or simply take it by the spoonful.
Whole Seeds
You can also sprinkle the dry seeds onto salads or add them to muesli mixes. You may also want to experiment with grinding them first in a coffee grinder, to make a chia flour you can then add to smoothies, soups, breads and so on.
Chia sprouts are used in a similar manner as alfalfa sprouts in salads, sandwiches and other dishes.
Because chia seeds absorb lots of water, they can soak up the water from your body and cause you to dehydrate. Prevent this by drinking lots of water. Or, even better, take the seeds already hydrated so they will not absorb your own body fluids to hydrate.
Serving Size
Based on the Food and Utility Regulation LGV - Novel Food is the maximum consumption for chia seeds 15g per day. This quantity must not be exceeded.

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 to juice, smoothie, muesli or raw desserts. Maca is also a good thickener for soups, making it a tasty addition. We especially like maca with oatmeal and as an ingredient in our raw chocolate recipes.

Maca is rich in minerals and vitamins and contains almost 60 Phytonutrients, which are nutrients derived from plant material that have been shown to be beneficial for sustaining human life. Maca is high in calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, iron, zinc, iodine, copper, and selenium. The root also contains much vitamin B1, B2, C and E. Its bio-available protein content is about 11% in a dry root.
Maca is considered an adaptogen, which means that it has an balancing effect on the various body systems, especially the endoctrine system. Traditionally it has also been used as an aphrodisiac, to increase fertility and during menopause. Maca helps the body to adapt to high levels of stress by providing energy wherever it is needed without over-stimulating the body.

Maca is a powerful superfood and can have a strong rebalancing and detoxifying effect, especially if you’re body is not in perfect health. It is wiser to start with a small dosage of ½ tsp. a day and build up to 1-2 tbsp. a day. Once the first phase of detox and rebalancing has passed, you can increase the dosage to up to 3 tbsp. a day, especially during times of stress. Unlike soya products, Mexican wild yams and flaxseeds, Maca does not contain hormones itself, so there is no danger in overdoing it.
Note: A common misconception about superfoods and herbs is that there is a standard dosage. We believe that the proper measure is in relation to size, sensitivity, age, gender and many other factors that make each human being unique. In general though, a typical daily-suggested intake for most superfoods could be anywhere from 1 tsp. to 3 tbsp. daily, split into two or three doses. Best is to start at 1 tsp. per day and regulating your own dosage according to your personal needs.

Swiss Sea Buckthorne Juice

Sea buckthorne - the most vitamin-C rich berries in Europe
Harvested from wild sea buckthorn shrubs in the Swiss Alps
The orange berries of the sea buckthorn shrub, which are collected in the remote Swiss mountain valleys, attract great attention from experts. The vital substance content is very high, in particular of vitamin C. The vitamin C content was repeatedly tested by the manufacturer in Swiss test laboratories. These resulted in vitamin C values of 18,000 to 22,000 mg / kg of juice. Common values of good plantain varieties are 3000 to 5000 mg / kg of juice. This is 36 to 44 times more than that of fresh orange juice. The richness of its entire ingredients is unmatched. More than 12 vitamins: A, B, C, E, F, H, P, PP, glycosides, flavonoids, saponins, omega-3, -6 and -9 fatty acids, fruit acids and mineral Trace elements are contained in mature mulberry trees. Vitamin C is most effective in natural combination with other vital substances. Sea buckthorn juice also contains Sea buckthorn fruit oil.
Sea buckthorn juice in raw food quality
The whole berries are very gently pressed at low temperatures. The very high acid content - due to the high vitamin C content - and the clean processing allow the juice not to be pasteurized and to last for at least 6 months. This keeps all vital substances. The juice is very refreshing due to the vitamin C content and its powerful Sea buckthorn aroma. The high vitamin P content supports the stability and uptake of vitamin C.
The harvest and processing of the sea buckthorn berries
The berries which grow wildly at about 1000 meters above sea level are harvested by Margrit and Adolf Hartmann by hand in an impassable area in the Valais and the Grisons Oberland. Compared to cultivated plants these berries are smaller, but they are more vitamin rich. Harvest time is between August and October. With electric scissors, the berries are thrown together with the thorny branches and put into big jute bags. The two donkeys "Fiona" and "Meli" help to carry the heavy bags into the valley. The whole processing of the Sea buckthorn berries happens on the farm of the spouses Hartmann in Trans in Domleschg.
Sea buckthorn juice or syrup
For people, who can not do anything with this completely unsweetened original juice, we recommend the sea buckthorn syrup, which is sweetened pleasantly with fructose and Birnel. The proportion of sea buckthorn fruit in the syrup is still 60%.
Note: The berries are wild fruits and come without pesticides and agrochemicals. Due to the very large harvesting area, however, an organic certification can not be financed.
Use of the Swiss Sea Buckthorn Juice
Sea buckthorn juice tastes best pure, some sweetened or also as an addition in water, fruit juices, tea, yoghurt, muesli and desserts. Depending on your personal needs, take 2 to 5 tablespoons daily.

How to use Maca Powder
Maca has a unique flavor and can be added to many different dishes. Some people find the taste of maca powder somewhat reminiscent of caramel with an upbeat 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, smoothie, muesli or raw desserts. Maca is also a good binder for soups and therefore a delicious addition to them. We especially like maca with oatmeal and as an ingredient in our raw chocolate 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 soy products, Mexican yam and flaxseed, maca does not contain hormones.Note: A common misconception about superfoods and herbs is that there is a standard usage amount. In general, the usual recommended daily intake for most superfoods, like 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.
