A-Z Ingredients

Almonds – Backed by an impressive nutritional profile, almonds, while known for their healthy fats are also an incredible source of Vitamin E, Magnesium and Potassium. Almonds have long been hailed for their long list of benefits, including their content of zinc, which has been studied for its ability to help moderate the way the body handles stress. Also, the fat in almonds has the ability to keep you satisfied, reducing the desire to fall off the wagon!

Blueberries – The powerhouse berry of them all. Heavy on the taste and the antioxidants, blueberries are also well known for their cancer fighting properties. Maybe equally impressive is their brain boosting characteristics and ability to reduce inflammation. There are so many different vitamins and minerals which make blueberries one of the most nutritionally dense foods out there.

     

Cinnamon – Used for thousands of years around the world, cinnamon has a reputation for being one of the most powerful spices. Proven to lower the glycemic index of OTHER foods when eaten together, cinnamon has been shown to help lower blood insulin levels and help against those spikes and dips in hunger. This wonder spice also contains a hefty dose of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants which help to reduce inflammation and fight infections. No wonder why we use it a lot.

  

Coconut – Wow! What doesn’t this powerhouse have. Containing many good for you fats, coconuts are known for the oil containing MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides). In plain English, they are a good source of energy and metabolized by the body faster than other fats which have longer chains. On top of all of this, coconut is just plain delicious!

Cranberries – A powerful berry that naturally contains the flavonoid proanthocyanidins (PACs) which gives the fruit its antioxidant properties. Not just a Thanksgiving staple, cranberries are packed with fiber, contain a high amount of vitamin C, and can even help boost the immune system.

  

Honey – Known for being one of the best natural sweeteners in nature, honey has many characteristics that make it a very versatile ingredient. This natural energy booster dates back over 8000 years, and beyond its use as a food, it’s also known for its medicinal and healing properties. One of Nature’s best sweeteners, we don’t need a lot and Paleonola consciously uses just a touch.

    Pecans – Another powerhouse nut, Pecans have been linked to heart health, energy boosting and a whole bunch of other benefits. Loaded with manganese, copper and zinc, the Pecan can help contribute to strong bone health as well. Along with a list of antioxidants that help reduce inflammation, Thiamine is a vitamin that’s been linked to improving mental function which makes this the perfect snack while trying to focus at work or on a late-night project.

Pepitas - Pepitas (also know as pumpkin seeds) are a complete protein and contain more protein per serving than many other well known plant proteins out there. Also highly touted for their magnesium, Pepitas have excellent antioxidant properties as well. These little green seeds have been linked to stabilizing blood sugars which make them a go to snack for craving control.

Raisins – Antioxidants, Fiber, Iron, Calcium... the list goes on for this wonderful sun fruit. The antioxidants and vitamin C in raisins has been associated with keeping skin and hair healthy and vibrant. Nature's natural energy source, raisins offer a much better option than the goos and gels out there while out on the trail.

Walnuts – Hailed as “brain food” because of their ability to boost your brain power and memory function, walnuts have been serving as one of the most nutrient dense nuts for thousands and thousands of years. These little gems are packed with copper, manganese and Vitamin B6. We love the anti-inflammatory benefits of this nut and the way it fills you up without having to eat too much.
