The problem for your stomach is that nuts naturally contain a compound called phytic acid that protects them from sprouting before they grow. And phytic acid irritates the digestive system causing stomach pain.

Nuts and many other seeds have a protective shield that allows them to survive the journey through a digestive system.
This way the nuts can get carried somewhere far and then get deposited with some extra added nutrients. But that’s also why they can be quite unpleasant when eaten raw and in larger quantities.
The lectins and a phytic acid shield often creates inflammation and irritation in the gut in animals. For humans this often means bloating, gas and in some cases leads to allergies, leaky gut and other autoimmune reactions.
But the nut does not keep its shield forever. As it goes from tough seed to young plant, it undresses. For a brief moment, the seed is more nutritious and its minerals and vitamins are more accessible to us.
At Rich Nuts, we mimic this transformation. We let nuts germinate just enough to bring them to life and to let down their guard.
This is why we believe our nuts, are the most alive, nutrient-dense snack anywhere.
"The Maple Pecan & Cinnamon Walnut Crunch do a great job satisfying my sweet tooth (without feeling guilty about it). The Go Nuts & Berries is an excellent trail snack and I'm loving the Brilliant Balsamic Walnuts as a perfect compliment to dress the top of a salad. Thank you Rich Nuts for these awesome, healthy, crunchy morsels of goodness! I'll be ordering more soon!"
