We use both monk fruit extract and erythritol.

Monk fruit (luo han guo) is a small melon that has been cultivated in Southeast Asia for over 800 years. It contains antioxidant compounds, called mogrosides, giving it a natural sweetness - without sugar.

Erythritol is a byproduct of fermenting sugar which results in a sweet flavor about 60-80% as sweet as sugar. While most erythritol is processed from corn, we use erythritol fermented from sugar cane.

Neither monk fruit nor erythritol spike blood sugar or insulin.

Not yet! But we do ensure we only use ingredients that are naturally gluten free. Our friends with celiac disease have not had any trouble with our granolas, but if you’re very sensitive to gluten, you may want to avoid our product in the unlikely case of cross-contamination.

Everything in our current granolas is organic except for our nuts - it’d simply be cost prohibitive at this time to include organically grown nuts. Everything else is organic though!

Yes! Specializing in blood glucose and diabetes, April specifically designed this product to be diabetic friendly. The healthy fats will slow the digestion of carbs providing a steady release of glucose and there is zero added sugar!

Steam pasteurization. In September 2007, the USDA began requiring that all almonds grown in California and sold as raw in the United States be sanitized via pasteurization. Currently there are two main methods being used to pasteurize the almonds. One uses steam to sanitize the nuts, while the other uses the chemical, propylene oxide, aka PPO, which is considered a possible carcinogen. Most conventional almond growers pasteurize their almonds using PPO. We choose to take extra care and source almond that are pasteurized using steam, which is a much safer alternative to the PPO both protecting you and the nutrients of the almonds themselves.
