Turmeric Ginger Mango Brazil Nut Milk

This combination of ingredients makes this a truly anti-inflammatory elixir!

Brazil nuts are very rich in selenium &;amp; contain ellagic acid which are both known for combating inflammation in the body. Add ginger &; turmeric which are also well known for their anti-inflammatory properties and you can begin to understand Hippocrates' famous quote, "Let food be thy medicine & medicine be thy food".

Selenium is also a key component necessary for thyroid function. Brazil nuts are so rich in this mineral that only one kernel provides 100% of daily recommendation and too much of it can cause toxicity. We recommend using this milk to add flavor and nutrition to your tea or mix in to another beverage.
