Recent studies suggest there are major differences between organic and conventional food with respect to taste, nutrition and  health. For example, in 1 study, organic foods were rated nutritionally superior in 61% the cases tested. They were higher in polyphenols (a type of antioxidant), antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.   The reason given for organic foods being more nutrient dense has to do with: * The dilution effect ( dilution effect occurs when higher levels of fertilizer is used, thereby having a negative impact...

How Living Nutz Sprouted into Business: Part 1

The Nutz Story | Tags: ,,, | Date: 13 Apr 2011 | 0 Comment | 

  In the year 2000, my brother Dave and I went to see a lecture about the raw food diet with a guy named David Wolfe.  We were both into organic health foods and we were always looking for ways to better optimize our health. We had heard about this talk through friends who said that they were absolutely blown away by what this guy had to say. Naturally, we were interested in hearing more, so we registered for the event and looked forward to attending. The lecture was held at a raw food restaurant called “The Organic Garden”...

The Truth About Almond Pasteurization Methods

Almond Pasteurization,Industry News | Tags: ,,, | Date: 11 Apr 2011 | 19 Comments | 

While there are four main methods of pasteurizing almonds, steam processing, high heat treatment (roasting), blanching and highly toxic fumigation treatment with propylene oxide (PPO), two of them are the primary methods that are used most often.. These two are steam processing and PPO fumigation. Steam processing is the method delineated to the organic sector of the almond industry. While this is probably the cleanest method of pasteurizing almonds it is still an option reserved for those who have the budget to use machines like this.   As...

Almond Pasteurization Update

Almond Pasteurization,Industry News | Tags: ,, | Date: 10 Apr 2011 | 4 Comments | 

We at Living Nutz would like to thank the almost 30,000 people who have signed the “Mandatory Pasteurization of Almonds is Wrong Petition”.  Since this petition was created in 2007 a lot has happened (thanks to the Cornucopia Institute) in the progress of winning an appeal against the USDA’s ruling that has made all almonds grown in the USA illegal by implementing extreme forms of pasteurization including methods that revert to high heat, carcinogenic chemical fumigation and steam pasteurization. The effects this mandate has had on independent...

  • Hi,
    I just want to let you know that your nutz are out of this world. I let my mother and sister try your Banana Bread Walnutz and Cina-Pecans and they LOVED them. I also love the Chili Pistachios, Curry Almonds, and Pesto Walnutz. The Cina Pecans taste like cinnamon oatmeal cookies, but I put them in a cereal bowl with raw almond mylk and it’s a healthy alternative to the sugary cinnamon cereal I use to eat. Also your Wicked Chili Almonds remind me of barbecued spare-ribs or chicken (which I definitely don’t and haven’t eaten for over a decade). Thanks for creating the best tasting raw nutz around. I got my local store ‘Green Earth, in Riverhead’ to stock them and now I’ll be loading up on them every week. I’m addicted!
    :) Debbie

  • Lip Balm to Die For

    Hello, I just wanted to say Thank You so much for sending my order so quickly! I ordered your Wild Blueberry lip balm and received it in less than a week. I also wanted to say how much I love your products, I found the lip balm a couple of years ago at a little shop while I was visiting family in Belfast, ME, and each time I visited I could not find it anywhere. So I was very excited to order it from your website! Again, thank you so much for your promptness and for supplying such a wonderful product.
    Sincerely, Rose

  • Your lip balm is the best. Exactly, not greasy, just right. My lips are soft and smooth within 1-2 days. Incredible. Blueberry is the best. Unfortunately my health food store is not carrying it for some reason. DT from Wakefield Thank you so much!

  • This is the best lip balm I have ever used, and I cannot find it anywhere in New York City. You should get your product in stores everywhere. Best of luck to you guys and your positive and progressive company!
