Raw, organic, sweet and rich in flavor. High in Folate, B Vitamins, Tryptophan, Magnesium, Manganese, Iron, Selenium, Copper and Potassium. Cashews are seeds and have naturally less fat than nuts. Enjoy Cashews straight out of the bag, soaked to make raw creams, raw cheese and desserts.
Our contact for these cashews works directly with small-scale organic cashew growers in Indonesia to develop both ecological sustainability throughout the growing area and economic viability for this beautiful product.The cashews are handpicked from organically certified trees. The nuts are then cracked open with traditional knives and hand-polished to remove the thin skin protecting the kernel. The result is a totally raw cashew kernel with incredibly sweet taste, a creamy, soft texture, and all of its enzymes intact.
Our truly raw cashews are naturally high in beautifying oleic acid, which is also found in high amounts in raw, ripe olives and stone crushed, extra virgin olive oil. These truly raw, certified organic cashews are high in magnesium and manganese, and are a good source of selenium and zinc. The magnseium in our raw, organic cashews works to strengthen the digestion and improve our flexibility, while manganese and selenium work together to rid the body of harmful oxidized cholesterol. Zinc is crucial for enzyme formation and reproductive health, making raw, organic cashews a valuable live food to add to any meal.
