When a seed or nut falls from a tree in nature, it contains phytic acid, which is supposed to discourage predators. In the human body, it binds to minerals (zinc, magnesium, iron and calcium) and reduces their absorption. By soaking the nuts, we reduce the content of this acid. This releases or unlocks the essential minerals and makes them more easily accessible to the body.

Activated nuts and seeds are therefore easier to digest than regular nuts due to the soaking process. After the soaking process, the activated nuts are dried at very low temperatures up to 42° C to preserve the enzymes to support digestion. The nuts prepared in this way are wonderfully crunchy and delicate in taste.

In the last phase of production, we flavor the activated nuts in a holistic way and dry them again up to 42° C. For flavoring we choose natural superfoods that support overall health and balance in various ways: turmeric has an anti-inflammatory effect, raw, sugar-free chocolate improves mood, and Camu Camu supports immunity.

Why is it important to soak nuts? To wake them up to life first, and thanks to them, to blossom you out, too. The word sprouting is offered, but nuts - unlike seeds - do not form sprouts, from activated nuts a plant grows straight. That is why we are talking about activation. Like the old Aztecs, we dry nuts for several days at a low temperature below 42° C to keep them LIVING - ultimately raw.

When a seed or a nut falls from a tree in nature, it contains phytic acid, which is supposed to discourage predators. Phytic acid is one of the so-called antinutritional substances “reducing the nutritional value of the foods in which they are contained. They cause lower bioavailability of nutrients.” Phytic acid works by binding to minerals (zinc, magnesium, iron and calcium) and preventing them from being absorbed by the body. By soaking the nuts, we reduce the content of these phytates. As a result, essential minerals are released ("unlocked") and are thus better available (biologically usable) for our body. We will use the maximum nutritional potential of nuts and seeds.

No more stomach upset… Activated nuts and seeds are easier to digest than regular nuts due to the soaking process, which washes out enzyme inhibitors / blockers. Without these inhibitors, our digestive enzymes are more efficient and help us absorb nutrients better. Soaking improves the digestive process and we do not feel "heaviness" in the stomach.

After the soaking process, the activated nuts are dried at very low temperatures up to 42° C to preserve the enzymes to support digestion. The nuts prepared in this way are wonderfully crunchy and are delicate in taste.

In the last phase of the production of ŽIVÉ OŘECHY® I flavor activated nuts in a holistic way and dry them again up to 42° C. As a holistic nutritionist, I choose natural superfoods for flavoring activated nuts, which support overall health and balance in specific ways. For example Energizing pistachios flavored by turmeric and guarana stimulate and have an anti-inflammatory effect, ume vinegar flavoring shifts the Harmonized Cashew from a holistic point of view in an alkaline direction, flavored with Camu Camu fruit promotes immunity or Chocoalmonds in raw chocolate without sugar stimulate and promote good mood.
