As more and more people are ditching processed products for a natural “Paleo Diet”, which is a lifestyle that closely emulates the diet of human beings during our hunter-gatherer days, there is a growing demand for natural, unprocessed substitutes for the foods that can cause so many health problems.

One particularly useful and natural alternative to wheat flour is Plantain Flour, which in addition to not containing many of the harmful pesticides and hormones used in manufacturing processes, has a number of other benefits.

Plantain flour is:

• Rich in Vitamins A, B, C, Potassium, Iron, Phosphorus, and Magnesium
• Suitable for consumption by those suffering from both Type 1 & Type 2 diabetes
• Able to treat a range of digestive issues, like indigestion, constipation, and diarrhea
• Used to combat a range of symptoms associated with erectile dysfunction
• Rich in resistant starch that does not create a sugar spike in the bloodstream
• Free of gluten, making it perfect for those with an intolerance to it

There are many other benefits and uses for plantains in their raw form, which are far too numerous to go into here. Suffice to say that it is extremely useful and beneficial to health.

The Paleo Diet

Processed wheat flour is ubiquitous. Buy anything made from bread or pastry at any supermarket and it is 99% guaranteed to contain processed white flour, which means that even those with relatively healthy diets are consuming a lot of it and it is so hard to avoid without making some kind of lifestyle change.

One of the ways to effectively reverse the damage done from a lifetime of eating processed produce is to go/get back to our roots, to a time where humans were much healthier than we are today.

Most of the natural products we speak about can be found in African’s herbs and foods diet.

Plantains flour is one of the many foods from the African continent that can give us a healthier and balanced life.

Our mission is to raise awareness of the largely forgotten natural Organic nutritional food products from Africa, plus the benefits they offer.
