Quality
:
Mesquite Powder is a wild-crafted certified organic superfood powder. This Mesquite comes from a beautiful, untouched region of Argentina. To produce this healthy, whole-food meal, ripe Mesquite pods are hand-picked from the tree by members of the local indigenous communities. They are then rinsed thoroughly and naturally shade dried. A special grinder is used to crush and pulverize both the pod and the seeds of the mesquite into an ultra-fine flour.
Origin
Mineral-rich untouched forests of Argentina.
Benefits
:
Mesquite Powder has been used as a power food for centuries by the desert-dwellers of South America. Mesquite contains calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, and is also rich in the amino acid lysine. Mesquite powder meal is an easy-to-digest source of carbohydrates—with a sweet, starchy flavor. Because the carbohydrates are complex, they have a lower glycemic index than most fruit sugars. Some Native American groups, such as the Tohono O'odham peoples in Arizona, use Mesquite powder as an alternative sweetener and flavoring agent for those with blood sugar challenges.
Ultimately, Mesquite powder is a better source of protein than most vegan foods, with the protein weighing in at around 17% of the powder's total weight. That's higher than nearly every known grain, and many common nuts and seeds!
Taste
:
Mild, sweet, nutty, molasses-like flavor with a hint of caramel and chocolate. An
easy-to-digest source of carbohydrates—with a sweet, starchy flavor.
If you love carob you have to try its close cousin, mesquite - an absolutely delicious sweet chocolate taste.

Mesquite gives more body and flavor to any recipe. It can be added to homemade nutrition smoothies and shakes, as well as desserts and chocolate bars.
