Thanks to 88 Acres for sponsoring this episode.
So how do you make something like seed cycling, which is essentially diversifying your mineral and fatty acid intake for improving hormone health, easy to do every day? This is one of the many reasons I recommend and use 88 Acres, a woman owned company founded by Nicole Ledoux that grew up on an 88 acre farm outside of Boston. 88 Acres makes makes seed butters, bars, seed’nola and salad dressings from whole food ingredients and a commitment to ingredient sourcing. Sunflower, watermelon, pumpkin and flax seeds make up the backbone of their products and by throwing one of their delish double choc or triple berry bars into your bag and eating roasted pumpkin seed butter by the spoonful for an afternoon snack, now you’re seed cycling.
Not only that, 88 Acres is a small team that cares about its customers and community. Instead of relying on a larger manufacturer like most food companies to prepare and package their recipes, 88 Acres maintains full quality control in their allergen free facility so they can ensure zero product waste and create jobs in their community. I love the little extras they add into their boxes and I know you’ll love them too. To check out their variety packs to support your seed cycling and my favorite 88 Acres products with a discount, head over to seeds.88acres.com/lessstressed.
