Quantum Nutritional Flakes

Ingredients: Primary Grown Nutritional Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)

Quantum Nutritional Flakes are rich in protein, and contain 18 amino acids, including good amounts of lysine and tryptophan. They are rich in B-complex vitamins, especially helpful for stress reduction and contain 15 minerals.

In the Superfoods chapter of Nourishing Traditions, Sally Fallon says: "Dried nutritional yeast is an excellent natural source of B complex vitamins (except for B12) plus a variety of minerals. Look for yeast that has been processed at low temperatures. Yeast does not contribute to candida as has been claimed—candida feeds on refined carbohydrates, not yeast. The late eminent physician Dr. Henry Bieler treated many cases of chronic fatigue with yeast supplements."

Sprinkle 1 or 2 teaspoons overany food to impart a rich, hearty, nutty-like flavor.

It is also a recommended ingredient in Sally's homemade baby formula recipes.

Apricot kernels

A whole food source of laetrile, also known as vitamin B17.

Some people eat apricot kernels, in conjunction with a whole food diet, as part of a natural cancer treatment protocol. If you're one of them, we recommend that you take up to a maximum of one kernel per 5kg bodyweight, per day, in split doses, eaten whole.

New Zealand grown, from Otago. The apricots aren't organic, but the kernels have been tested and found residue free.

Nirvana Stevia Liquid

A natural, no calorie, no carb alternative to sugar and artificial sweeteners

• Much sweeter than sugar (2-3 drops approx = sweetness of tsp of sugar)
• No known side effects
• Organically grown in South America from Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni plant
• Great for weight management and blood sugar levels

A healthy person on a traditional diet can eat small amounts of natural sweeteners such as honey, maple syrup or dehydrated cane juice with no problems.

But with some health conditions, such as diabetes or candida, all sugars have a detrimental effect. Instead of articifcial sweeteners, try stevia.

Unlike sugar, stevia doesn't trigger a rise in blood sugar levels. You don't get a sudden burst of energy followed by fatigue and the subsequent need for another “fix”. Studies suggest that stevia has a regulatory effect on the pancreas and could help stabilize blood sugar levels in the body.

Stevia is the recommended sweetener for BED (Body Ecology Diet) and many low carb diets. Although stevia is not technically allowed on the SCD and GAPS diets, many people choose to have it instead of honey, and find it succesful.

This is an alcohol free, highly concentrated liquid stevia. Nirvana Stevia Liquid Concentrate uses only organically grown Stevia extract, which has been extracted without the use of chemicals then carefully blended with distilled water and the most natural preservatives available (ascorbic acid and potassium sorbate). High quality Stevia extract does not have the grassy or slightly bitter after taste that has been reported with the use of some Stevia.

Reilly's Peanut Butter

(Was Peanutbutterland)

Yes! Now you can buy peanut butter made to traditional principles. One less job to do yourself.

Organic red skin peanuts are soaked, slow roasted, then turned to peanut butter. The only other ingredients are sea salt, raw honey and organic coconut oil. It's packaged in a glass jar, and you can buy 400ml of pure taste pleasure for only $9.

This is peanut butter you can eat off the spoon for a quick snack. Even people who turn up their noses at supermarket peanut butter fall in love with this product.

As well as all the usual peanut butter uses, try this recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Slice:

Melt together 200g Zenian coconut oil, 3 Tbs honey, 1 pot peanut butter and 3 Tbs cocoa or carob powder. Add any extras you fancy, such as dried fruit or extra nuts. Line a Swiss roll tin with baking paper, pour in the mixture and set it in the fridge. It's not transportable, but any time you're at home and need a snack, break a small bit off. It's very sustaining, but with the Zenian oil, it's also stimulating.

By special request, Reilly is now making some jars honey free just for us.
 

Reilly's Almond Brazil Butter

We now have stocks of Almond Brazil butter made by the same method.

If anything, it is even more delicious than the peanut. Though some people still love the peanut butter best. In our house, we always have a jar of each ready for instant snacks.

Try cutting an apple in half, cutting out the core and filling it with almond brazil butter. Yum!

Also now available honey free.

Raw cacao (cocoa) powder

The Peruvian producer of this product has perfected a technique that makes truly raw organic cacao powder.

It allows for maximum digestion and antioxidant absorption. It has a delightful, full, antioxidant-rich chocolate flavour.

Dark chocolate has been touted as a source of antioxidants, but this raw cacao powder is way beyond that. ORAC antioxidant laboratory analysis confirms that there are over 25,200 ORAC units in a single spoonful of Raw Cacao Powder!

Users say "This tastes better than any other cocoa powder I've ever tried and stays mixed better as well."

The Chocolate Peanut Butter Slice recipe above tastes even better made with this powder.

Raw organic cacao (cocoa) butter

This is premium quality organic, raw cocoa butter for anyone who wants to make their own chocolate. It makes lovely white chocolate for GAPS patients, or anyone on a sugar restricted diet, especially when combined with the creamed coconut. See Deb's recipe blog for some recipes.

Ingredients for baby formula

We have had enquiries about availability of the ingredients needed for Sally Fallon's milk based baby formula.

We stock:

• The fermented cod liver oil

At this stage, we're not stocking most of the others, but we can tell you where to get them.

The recipe is available online at the Weston A Price foundation website or click here to download a pdf document with recipes and FAQ about feeding babies.

Acerola powder

We have Camu camu powder, which Sally says is fine. This has about three times the vitamin C as acerola, so reduce the dose accordingly. Or Lifestream now have Acerola powder.

Yeast

We now stock Premier Research Labs Quantum Nutritional flakes

Lactose

Fonterra will sell you a 25kg bag. But if you want something a bit smaller, your best bet is to order directly from overseas. The best sources we've found seem to be Organic Pharmacy in the US or Green Pastures Australia. Check current freight and exchange rates to see which is the best deal.

Sunflower oil

Your local health foodf shop should be able to supply an organic, cold pressed oil.

Gelatin

Davis brand is available in most supermarkets. So far we haven't been able to find an organic brand.

Bifidobacterium infantis

Commonsense Organics in Wellington can source Natren Life Start powder for you. So your local health food shop should be able to do the same. If they can't, it's available online from www.probiotics.co.nz

Email us if there is anything else you're having trouible sourcing.
