Gut Nuts - Fermented Almonds

Regenerative Organic Certified
USDA Organic
Glyphosate Residue Free
Product Description

Gut Nuts - a happy accident that created the only fermented almonds in the world:

One day I found that our sprouting almonds were accidentally fermenting, smelling, and inviting sourdough aroma. I followed my gut and taste tasted them. Probiotics had generated delicious, savory, tangy, and Unami flavors crunchier than raw almonds. They’re fantastic by the handful on your charcuterie board or in your trail mix.

Fermented almonds have superpowers beyond the cravable taste and crunchy texture. Enjoy my creation!

-Tim, Chief Philosopher

Regenerative Organic Certified
Regenerative Organic Certified

Regenerative Organic Certified® is a revolutionary new certification for food, apparel, and personal care ingredients. Regenerative Organic Certified® farms and products meet the highest standards in the world for soil health, animal welfare, and farmworker fairness.

With regenerative organic agriculture, we can rehabilitate soil, respect animal welfare, and improve the lives of farmers. We can sequester carbon, build healthier communities, and reap more nutritious and abundant yields.

In practice, regenerative organic agriculture can look like cover cropping, crop rotation, low- to no-till, compost, and zero use of persistent chemical pesticides and fertilizers.

All Regenerative Organic Certified® products and farms must also meet the requirements of the USDA Organic Certification.

USDA Organic

The USDA organic regulations describe organic agriculture as the application of a set of cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that support the cycling of on-farm resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. These include maintaining or enhancing soil and water quality; conserving wetlands, woodlands, and wildlife; and avoiding the use of synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, irradiation, and genetic engineering.

Organic producers use natural processes and materials when developing farming systems—these contribute to soil, crop, and livestock nutrition, pest and weed management, attainment of production goals, and conservation of biological diversity.

Glyphosate Residue Free

Glyphosate Residue Free certification verifies (through third-party accredited laboratory tests) that products do not contain glyphosate residues.

To be certified Glyphosate Residue Free, a product must have no glyphosate residues down to government-recognized limits of detection (LODs) for food, commodity, and supplement samples (usually 0.01 ppm), and lower levels than default government Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) in the European Union and Japan.

The Glyphosate Residue Free program certification was established to:

  • Reduce Consumers’ risk of exposure to glyphosate residues in foods they consume;
  • Educate Producers about the glyphosate residue profile of their products;
  • Enable Producers to fine-tune production and supply chain strategies to minimize reliance on glyphosate-based herbicides
  • Encourage farmers to reduce their reliance on glyphosate-based herbicides

Why we recommend this product

The short answer: This product made it to our curated list because it has achieved certification through well-established and respected organizations with its ingredients sourced from regenerative agriculture. FYI: We are currently establishing a way to list non-certified products with transparency about the farm's regenerative practices.

In depth: We want to support the farmers and brands working hard to restore the health of soils, people, animals, and our planet’s ecosystems with regenerative agriculture. Currently, there is yet to be a single agreed-upon definition or regulatory system for regenerative agriculture. Unfortunately, some brands have capitalized on that lack of agreement with greenwashing. 

Starting with curated products that have achieved certifications at well-established and respected organizations [link], we want to make it easier for you as a consumer to understand the differences between the certifications and products so you can choose the ones that align with your values. 

We understand that many farms with regenerative practices wish to avoid going through extensive and expensive certification processes, so we are working hard to develop a set of criteria to help get their products listed and allow farmers to connect to our community transparently. 

We would love to hear your feedback. What criteria do you want to see in your regenerative products?
