Eating well isn’t rocket science. We all know that a healthy diet is one with food that is full of nutrients, and as nature-based as possible. This means avoiding additives, processed foods, sugars and fats where possible, and many people also now choose to avoid gluten, wheat and dairy products. Tiger nuts are a natural and unprocessed raw food, and can play a major role, as part of a healthy balanced diet.
