a mixture of high-energy foods, such as dried fruits and nuts, eaten as a snack.
Trail mix was invented by ancient nomads -- the original experts at creating portable, high-energy snacks that could withstand weather and did not need cooking. Traditionally, these snacks included a collection of many wild and native superfoods, and provided tremendous nutritional benefits. Throughout the centuries however, trail mix has become subject to large commercialization, and the notoriously bland gorp (good old raisins and peanuts) has become most synonymous with the term. Navitas Naturals takes trail mix back to its superfood roots by collecting the most powerful and delicious foods nature provides, and combining them to form three vastly superior energy blends. Each ingredient in these mixes is a power food in and of itself, and the health benefits afforded by snacking on these nutritious foods together is greatly superior to just eating any one item alone. Each antioxidant-full and nutrient-rich combination is the perfect fuel when eaten for a boost throughout the day, during strenuous activity, or for modern-day nomadic adventures.
Navitas Naturals uses only the most nutritious superfoods available to form our immensely beneficial blends. We include sweet and delicious superberries, like goji berries or mulberries, which help fight free radicals with their condensed antioxidant activity and impressive vitamin content. Another top ingredient is cacao a remarkable food for supplying essential minerals and energy. Truly raw and organic nuts are also used in our blends to contribute healthy fats and digestible protein. With no filler ingredients, every handful of our organic raw trail mixes is full of purpose: delicious nutrition and vitality.
Clearly superior in the nutritional department, Navitas Naturals Trail Power blends are the ultimate flavorful snack straight out of the bag, and can also make an exciting addition to recipes. Try tossing some into cereal or oatmeal, use in place of other dried fruits or nuts in baked recipes like muffins, or combine with grains and make the ultimate granola. Any way they are used, these raw food blends enhance both the body and the taste buds.
