Hemp seed has been an important source of nutrition for thousands of years in Old World cultures. Plus, fiber from the stalk is used to make clothing, paper, rope, nets and more. Hemp is 5 times more productive per acre than trees when it comes to paper production. Hemp seeds offer a healthy source of essential fatty Acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6) to the body, but also provide a very high level of dietary fiber, which helps your digestive system remain efficient and healthy, not to mention they are a complete protein, which is unusual for sources that are plant based. Because the human body produces no Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), it is important that EFAs be consumed on a regular basis. It is estimated that more than 90 percent of Americans take in too little of one of the most important EFAs--omega-3--which is found in flax, walnuts, chia, and hemp seeds. EFAs are the "good fats" that doctors recommend as part of a healthy, balanced diet. Organic Vegan & Vegetarian Gluten Free Raw About Foods Alive Foods Alive is a family owned and operated business that cares more about the quality of food and the effects of producing it on the planet than profiting for ones self. They sprouted to life in 2002 when the first seeds were sown by Ellen and Michael Moor, their son Matt and his wife Tammy. How it all began.... Ellen and Michael first encountered flax crackers while enjoying a raw food buffet at Creative Health Institute in Hodunk, Michigan. Michael fell in love with the raw cracker and this inspired Ellen to recreate it in her own kitchen. She began making flax crackers for her family and they loved them also! As Ellen continued making flax crackers, she let her creativity shine with new combinations of flavors. These raw crackers became such a hit with the family that they all agreed they must be shared with the world! So in the middle of 2002, Ellen, Michael, Matt and Tammy launched Foods Alive and introduced the first Certified Organic Raw Golden Flax Crackers in 4 awesome flavors: Original, Maple & Cinnamon, Italian Zest and Mexican Harvest. By using only the finest certified organic, vegan, kosher and gluten free ingredients, they created a simple healthy raw whole food that everyone could enjoy. They started offering their flax crackers to retailers and it did not take long for their delicious and healthy living food snacks to start flying off the shelves of health food stores around the country! Today, Foods Alive offers their unique Raw Golden Flax Crackers in several wonderful flavors, produces a variety of raw Flax and Hemp based Gourmet Oils and Super Dressings, and an extensive line of organic raw Super Foods (chia seeds, maca powder, goji berries, etc...) to provide health conscious consumers with a more diverse nutritional experience. A little more in detail.... Foods Alive sprouted to life in 2002. The seeds were sown by Ellen and Michael Moor, their son Matt and his wife Tammy.
