Ramón Seeds

With a taste that combines flavors from coffee and chocolate, roasted ramón seeds produce a delicious brew that the Maya were drinking way before the Spaniards brought coffee to the Americas. Now wild harvested in Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, this nutritious seed provides a source of food and income for rural communities. Comparable to walnuts for their ability to fight free radicals, Ramón seeds contain more potassium, fiber and calcium than any other bean or grain. It has a complete protein that is high in tryptophan to help calm your nerves in stressful times.

Carob

Organic carob pods harvested from a wild tree native to the Mediterranean, are lightly roasted to bring out their sweet, chocolatey flavor.

A member of the legume family, the dark brown pods contain calcium and 24 antioxidants that help fight free radicals. Pinitol, a unique compound in carob pods, helps boost your energy naturally. Carob's carbohydrates are bound in complex fiber for a low glycemic index that supports good digestion and regularity.*

Chicory

Roasted chicory root, France's favorite coffee alternative, imparts a smooth, non-acidic, full-bodied depth to Teeccino.

Chicory root contains the highest amount of inulin of any food. Inulin is the prebiotic soluble fiber that feeds your beneficial digestive flora, also called probiotics. Brewing chicory root in hot water naturally extracts its inulin.*
