What Are Sunza's?

Introducing a new way of eating … whole grain and seed, sprouted crackers, crusts and flatbreads known as Sunzas. They are markedly different from the regular categories of crackers, crusts because of what they contain (and how they are processed).

Each Sunza is different and has a variety of carefully selected ingredients. Yet they all have certain things in common.

They are always made with whole, sprouted grains, seeds or nuts.

Why Whole Grains?

Whole grains are comprised of three layers--the bran, the germ, and the endosperm. The high nutrient density commonly associated with grains exists only when these three are intact.  Whole grains contain health promoting substance like vitamins, minerals and fiber but they also contain lignins, phytoestrogens and other important, disease- preventing nutrients that usually are not found in supplements.

Sprouted Grains, Seeds and Nuts

The endosperm of the seed is the storehouse of carbohydrates, protein, and oil. When the seed germinates, these become predigested amino acids and natural sugars upon which the plant embryo feeds as it grows to maturity. When used as food, the life force is released and supplies the energy which is capable of generating healthy cells.

Processed foods often lack the vitamins and minerals necessary to a balanced diet. Research shows that, in sprouts, one finds one of the foods highest in vitamin and mineral content. In fact, sprouting increases the vitamin and mineral content of foods.

Sprouts should, therefore, occupy a prominent place in the diet.
