Go even further in nutrition with Kaly's range of 100% raw and activated nut butters!

Products handcrafted in limited quantities.

With vegetarian or vegan diets, nut butters have become essentials in our pantries, allowing us to create a vast variety of recipes and providing the proteins and healthy fats necessary for a balanced diet.
But what about your digestion and the anti-nutrients found in raw nuts and seeds? Low-temperature grinding does not eliminate them.

Problem solved with the activated purees High nutritional value: enjoy the gentle taste of organic cashew nuts combined with perfect digestion and assimilation thanks to soaking.

🥜 An artisanal manufacturing process

Organic cashews are soaked in purified water for several hours. They absorb the water, which removes anti-nutrients and activates the nut's germination process.

Once soaked, they are rinsed and dehydrated at a low temperature (42°C) to be preserved for a long time and to retain their good nutrients.

Finally, they are ground with a stone mill, an ancient process that prevents the nuts from heating up. Stone is a natural material that preserves the vitality of the food. This technique results in slightly grainy purees rather than completely smooth ones.

Activation, which can also be called pre-germination, has two main benefits:

- the elimination of phytic acids and anti-nutrients. These compounds are natural; they allow the seed to preserve itself over time and wait for the right moment to germinate. However, once in our digestive system, they prevent the proper absorption of other nutrients. An excessive amount of these compounds can also cause discomfort, such as inflammation of the digestive tract.

- reactivate the enzymatic and nutritional power of seeds. Soaking activates germination: enzymes start working to break down macronutrients, the amount of vitamins increases, and minerals become bioavailable.

> the stored lipids are broken down into easily assimilable fatty acids without effort
> the stored proteins are broken down into immediately bioavailable amino acids
> the complex sugars in reserve are broken down into simple sugars

🥜 How to use activated cashew nut butter ?

Activated cashew puree has a very mild, characteristic, and creamy taste. It is used in the same way as a classic puree, in savory or sweet dishes, on toast instead of butter, in all kinds of sauces, in "frawmages," in a smoothie or ice cream, in baking, and more.

The cashew nut, often used as a crunchy element in savory dishes and as a cream in desserts, is not only delicious but also rich in nutrients. Here are its main benefits:

• Magnesium: The anti-stress mineral and good for the heart
Cashew nuts are an excellent source of magnesium, an essential mineral for many bodily functions. Magnesium plays a key role in regulating blood pressure, maintaining heart health, and muscle relaxation. Additionally, it helps reduce stress and anxiety, thereby promoting overall well-being.

• Proteins: For the construction and repair of tissues
Cashew nuts are a notable source of plant-based proteins, necessary for building and repairing body tissues. They are particularly beneficial for people following a vegetarian or vegan diet, providing an intake of essential amino acids that support muscle growth and enzymatic function.

• Unsaturated fatty acids: Support for cardiovascular health
Lipids are very present in cashews. However, the fat composition of cashew nuts is mostly made up of unsaturated fatty acids, including oleic acid. These healthy fats help reduce LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol), thereby improving heart health. Additionally, cashew nuts contain phytosterols, which also contribute to good cardiovascular health.

• Copper: A crucial element for metabolism and the immune system
Like hazelnuts, cashew nuts are rich in copper, a vital enzymatic co-factor for many metabolic processes. Copper helps in the formation of red blood cells, the absorption of iron, and the production of collagen, which is essential for skin and bone health. It also plays a role in maintaining the immune system and protecting cells against oxidative damage.

Kaly

A perfectly well-chosen name: the quality of the raw materials, the artisanal manufacturing process, the nutritional quality of the products thanks to activation, everything has been designed to create very good foods with real nutritional utility, in short, "quality" products.

And then Kali is also the name of the Hindu goddess of preservation, transformation, and destruction. A perfect protector to accompany this range of healthy, nourishing, and delicious products.

Behind Kaly, you will find Julie: a young entrepreneur who is passionate about combining naturopathy, nutrition, raw food, and indulgence. She prepares these little wonders by herself in her workshop in Alsace for everyone's greatest pleasure.

She trained in naturopathy a few years ago as part of a personal and professional transition. The goal was to improve her health and gain a deeper understanding of how it works, as well as the functioning of the human being as a whole. While discovering certain subtleties of diet and nutrition, she was looking for certain products but couldn't find them in stores; and that's how Kaly was born.

Kaly is thus part of this desire to make more things available to those who wish to move towards better health.
