Crunchy, nourishing and good for the Amazonian rainforest. On top of all their health benefits, we love our organic Brazil nuts for their great crunch,  their woody, fresh taste and how sustainable they are.

Brazil nuts are the highest-known dietary source of selenium - you only need two nuts to get your daily dose of this essential mineral, which is a dietary antioxidant. They also provide fibre, Cardio Health-healthy unsaturated fatty acids and zinc.

organic Brazil nuts are very interesting for their positive harvest impact and sustainable aspect. By consuming Brazil nuts, you are contributing to protecting the amazonian rainforest and supporting the livelihood of forest-based communities. Brazil nuts grow exclusively in pristine rainforests, on trees that are part of a diverse and undisturbed ecosystem. The fruits are collected by farmers on the forest floor right where they drop, which provides them with an important source of income and an economic incentive to preserve the delicate rainforest that surrounds the nut trees. Brazil nuts are therefore a truly wild and sustainable organic food.

organic Brazil nuts are a delicious snack whether you eat them as is, roasted, salted or sweetened. They also make for the perfect ingredient in pesto, energy bars and nut milk. Coarsely ground in a food processor with a pinch of sea salt and nutritional yeast, they make a delicious raw vegan ‘’parmesan’’, a nutritious topping for salads, roasted veggies and pasta recipes.
