How it's processed

Our activation process maintains the nutritive qualities traditionally associated with almonds. We sprout our almonds in order to release the enzyme inhibitors, which are used by the nut to stop it from growing before it is in the optimum location. This makes them much easier to digest. After we've begun the sprouting process we then dehydrate our almonds at no higher than 40 degrees to maintain optimum nutrition.
