Seed lovers in all their forms, but too busy to soak them? Or maybe sprouted seeds are part of your daily routine, but it becomes complicated to consume them while traveling, at the office, or elsewhere? Gaia mixes are here to offer the ultimate solution!

Crunchy, naturally sweetened by Corinthian raisins and pieces of dates, rich in proteins, it also contains a good dose of magnesium and iron. The Essene mix with dried fruits is the perfect topping for your breakfasts but can sneak in everywhere, even as a snack in case of a little hunger.

🌰 Activation, what's it for?

It involves soaking dried fruits and seeds: this awakens all the enzymatic activity that was dormant to start their germination and thus make the vitamins and minerals they contain bioavailable. The form of proteins, lipids, etc., becomes simpler, and therefore our body assimilates it better. Activation also helps to eliminate phytic acid and enzyme inhibitors they contain: these compounds can interfere with digestion and reduce the absorption of trace elements by our digestive system. However, seeds activated at home can only be kept in the refrigerator for a few days. Therefore, we offer you dehydrated activated seeds at a low temperature: the combination of the power of activation, optimal preservation, and a crunchy texture.

> Stored lipids are broken down into easily assimilable fatty acids
> Stored proteins are broken down into immediately bioavailable amino acids
> Complex stored sugars are broken down into simple sugars easy to assimilate

🌰 Focus on all these good ingredients

- Sprouted buckwheat: buckwheat (or "black wheat") is not a cereal! It's the seed of a flowering plant, in the sorrel family (Polygonaceae). It is remineralizing and gluten-free.

- Sprouted sunflower seeds: did you know? They are from the same family as Jerusalem artichokes, and their similar tastes are quite well associated. These little seeds contain essential fatty acids like linoleic acid, which promotes heart protection.

- Corinthian raisins: originating from Greece (hence their name), they are now cultivated in several regions of the world. Small, seedless, and especially deeply sweet, this black grape is a staple in cooking and pastry. It is a source of fiber and antioxidants, containing a good amount of potassium and calcium.

- Dried dates: they provide the necessary energy to enjoy your day and promote digestion. Plus, they're delicious!

- Pre-sprouted almonds: no need to introduce this nut with multiple benefits. Pre-sprouting makes the almonds more digestible and slightly alters their taste, making them closer to fresh almonds. They are alkalizing.

- Pre-sprouted hazelnuts: the perfect combination of taste and well-being. An excellent source of monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamins (such as antioxidant vitamin E), and minerals that keep our body functioning daily.

Process : soaking and then dehydrating at 42°C for 6h to 72h depending on the raw material.

🌰 Essene, what does it mean?

Gaia is the specialist in "Essene breads," have you ever heard of them? These breads, made from a millennia-old recipe, are formed from sprouted seeds and cereals (like wheat or barley), then ground, shaped into small loaves, and finally dehydrated. A super raw and highly nutritious bread!

This recipe would come from the Essenes: a religious people who lived in the 1st or 2nd century AD around the Dead Sea. They lived very close to nature, in simplicity, and were vegetarians. They dehydrated their breads in the sun and had already understood the full power of sprouting. This seed mix fits into this natural dietary mode.
