Natural Traditions Baru Seeds Native to Cerrado, the tropical Savanna of Midwestern Brazil, baru seeds are sourced from the beautiful and impressive baru tree. Natural Traditions Baru Seeds are sustainably grown, wildcrafted and handpicked. They taste just like peanuts but have not come close to a nut or a pea, are nutritionally dense and contain considerable amounts of essential fatty acids, fibre, protein and an array of vitamins and minerals such as iron, potassium, zinc and vitamin C. Research shows that they also contain a host of ‘antioxidants’; natural compounds shown to help prevent the damage caused by oxidative stress. The latter is often the main precursor of inflammatory processes in the body prior to many common health conditions. Organic Traditions carefully roast their baru seeds which allows the powerhouse of nutrients contained within to be unlocked and digested far more easily. The seeds basically contain what we refer to as an ‘antinutrient’, in this case a known trypsin inhibitor making it hard for our body to digest proteins found in the seeds. Roasting deactivates this antinutrient, thus making the proteins more bioavailable.

Organic Traditions Trail Mix Recipe A lot of trail mixes have sulphites added to preserve them, and these can be an issue as sulphite allergies are on the rise.

Whilst you can mix up any number of nuts, seeds and dried fruits, this is our go-to recipe.
