Coconut Aminos for your health! When the coconut tree is tapped, it produces a highly nutrient-rich inflorescence (naturally  flowing juice or "sap")  that exudes from the coconut blossoms.  This sap is very low glycemic (GI of only 35),  diabetic-friendly, is an abundant source of amino acids, minerals, vitamin C, broad-spectrum B vitamins, and has a nearly neutral pH.

Coconut Aminos vs. Soy-based sauces

Among the many nutritional benefits of our Coconut Aminos product, the most notable is its impressive amino acid content compared to soy-based sauces. Commonly described as the building blocks of protein, amino acids are vitally important to human health. They contribute to the repair and rebuilding of muscle tissue, help to enhance overall brain and nervous system function, and assist in boosting the immune system and physical energy levels. Second only to water, protein is one of the most important substances in our bodies, which is why it is nutritionally beneficial to consume a diet that is rich in amino acids.

While soy-based sauces contain small amounts of amino acids, Coconut Aminos is 14 times more abundant than soy in naturally occurring Glutamic Acid (known to increase brain function and digestive health) and Threonine (noted for its calming effects and stress prevention). It is also high in Aspartic Acid (11 times more than soy – helps to regulate hormones and acts as a neurotransmitter to the cells), Serine (8 times that of soy – enhances memory and cognition), and 2-3 times higher than soy in Proline (promotes cardiovascular health), Valine (aids in tissue repair), and Alanine (balances glucose and assists in converting sugars in the body).

Health Secrets of Coconut Aminos

Small batches ensure that our organic Coconut Aminos, made from this natural sap, is a raw, enzymatically alive product, minimally evaporated at low temperatures for 1 hour (only to  remove excess moisture), never exceeding an average summer day in the tropics.

The “Gran Molucas Sea Salt” used in our Coconut Aminos, garners its name from the exotic,  tropical island  of Mindanao, the 2nd largest island in the Philippines.  It is surrounded on all  sides by converging Pacific Ocean waters ~ the Sulu Sea to the West, the Celebes Sea to the South, and the Philippine Sea to the East.

A local culinary heritage in Mindanao, this unbleached, unrefined, naturally white sea salt, is fed only by the sun and the sea.  It is hand-harvested by local salt producers working as  their forefathers did, in their ancestral salt fields.

After many days of labor, the salt is then sun-dried (to evaporate excess moisture) in open-air  cages lined with clay bricks.  The result, is a distinctly flavorful and nutritious, mineral-rich, unrefined sea salt.
