"These are the highest quality snacks in the health food marketplace! The reason--- similar to the aging of a fine bottle of wine, these nuts are slowly produced over 5 days in a manner that preserves the flavor and nutritional integrity as opposed to being roasted which takes only minutes and destroys almost all nutritional value."

About living foods from Living Nutz

Countless nutritionists and living foods experts have all stressed that it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to germinate (soak) all nuts and seeds for at least 12 hours before consuming them.

Germination is a process where all the vitamins, minerals, proteins and essential fatty acids (EFAs) that are dormant in nuts and seeds begin to activate and multiply. Germination also eliminates certain toxins and acids within the dormant nuts and seeds that would interfere with digestion.

The Germination process is the reason why our treats are so light and easy to digest. After the germination, we add all organic live food ingredients to the nuts and dehydrate them at low temperatures for up to five days. This preserves all the nutrition within the product and creates optimum flavor and digestibility. This is different than roasting nuts which is much quicker, but destroys vital enzymes and minerals These products are the perfect bridge for those looking to eat more healthy foods or switch to an all ‘raw’ diet without compromising taste.

Raw and Living Foods are foods that contain enzymes. All cooked food is devoid of enzymes. Cooking food changes the molecular structure of the food. In general, the act of heating destroys enzymes in food.                                                                               (Enzymes start to degrade in as little as 106 degrees F). Living and raw foods also have enormously higher nutrient values than the foods that have been cooked.
