Nourishment Techniques

Bone Broths

The slow simmering of nutrient-rich bones release healing compounds and minerals, that can be easily digested and absorbed into our bodies.

Anti-inflammatory Amino Acids and Collagen found in bone broth heal and repair irritations in the gut and support digestion, while boosting the immune system.

Nicoya Bone Broths are cooked slowly using an ancient French recipe and can be used as part of a recipe or as a nourishing alternative to tea or coffee.

Nicoya Soups are enriched using these opulent bone .

 

Fermentation

In order to maintain a naturally healthy digestive system, balanced gut flora is vital. So it is important to flood our bodies with good bacteria.

Fermented Foods are rich sources of these probiotics and a staple of human culture prior to the invention of electricity and refrigeration.

These days, the preservation of food through the traditional fermentation techniques is no longer seen as a necessity.

Good sources of natural probiotics which our ancestors evolved in harmony with, over millions of years, is difficult to find in modern western cooking.

 

Activated Seeds

Seeds are shaped by nature to endure the digestion system of animals and to take root when planted.

A protective, chemical layer (outside the husk) shields the seed from being digested and inhibits nutrient absorption.

Traditional tribes soak or ferment seeds in wooden bowls to free nutrient potential and aid digestion.

This ancient ceremony, ignites a chemical reaction that neutralises the protective chemicals and unlocks the beneficial minerals within.

In the NICOYA range all the nuts, seeds, grains and beans have been naturally Activated in the Tribal Way to unlock their full nutrient potential.
