1. What is the problem with existing options for those cutting down on sugar?
Most sweet products fit into either of 2 categories, neither of which helps us in optimising our health:
- A: Products containing artificial sweeteners. If you are seeking optimal health, you must avoid these: maltitol, isomalt, tagatose, sucralose, aspartame, Ace-K, saccharin. You can read more about each of them at: com/thescience/artificial-sweeteners
- B: Products claiming “No added sugar” or “Refined sugar free”, yet filled with sweeteners that are biochemically the same as sucrose (sugar), such as: agave syrup, maple syrup, honey, coconut sugar, date syrup, concentrated fruit juice, etc. Like sucrose, these are made of fructose and glucose and have the same metabolic and health impacts as sugar.
2. How does NOMOSU provide a solution?
NOMOSU creates sweet foods that are:
- Honestly sugar-free
- Organic
- Health-enhancing
- Seriously delicious
No more health-undermining ingredients. No more odd-tasting products. No more sugar. Pure pleasure – taste and feel to believe.
3. What is the secret to NOMOSU’s delicious taste?
NOMOSU’s sweetness is unique because we use the only source of organic, solely-water-extracted stevia. This conserves the structure of the sweet molecules, allowing them to interact naturally with cells’ taste receptors. Unlike chemically-extracted stevia (99% of what is on the market) that alters the sweet molecules’ structure, leaving an unnatural taste, this 100% natural stevia has a delicious, natural sweet taste.
Stevia has been eaten by indigenous peoples for 1000s of years – it even features in the ancient Mayan tale of the Popol Vuh. Would humans eat a plant for so long, if it did not taste good? NOMOSU is happy to share with you how delicious chocolates sweetened with organic, 100% water-purified stevia can taste.
Cacao research is also key in producing NOMOSU’s delicious tastes. The team carried out wide and deep research into the most delicious cacao varieties and origins to create absolutely delicious, characterful blends from specific origins in South and Central America, the birthplace of the cacao plant and chocolate creation.
The most delicious tastes and medicinal foods are perfectly packaged in nature, and by researching and applying them scientifically while staying true to nature with the goal of objectively delicious taste and comprehensive health in mind, we expand the horizon of genuinely health-enhancing and seriously delicious food.
