Product information

Mesquite is a tree that is part of the leguminous (legume) family. It grows in areas with dry climates such as parts of South America and the southwestern regions of the United States. Mesquite trees have a long root and use underground sources of water. Therefore, irrigation or the use of fertilizers and chemicals are not required for cultivation.

Mesquite wood produces pods that are ground to reach the final product - Mesquite Powder (Mesquite flour). The pods of the mesquite trees are rich in protein and have high nutritional value. The taste is described as light, slightly sweet, with subtle notes of caramel and molasses. Because of these qualities, powder mesquite is often used as a natural sweetener.

Health Benefits:

Mesquite has the ability to balance blood sugar, making it a great option for diabetics. The glycemic index of mesquite is 25 (much lower than white sugar) with a high percentage of dietary fiber. These factors allow the mesquite to be absorbed much more slowly than a number of cereals, preventing drastic changes in blood glucose levels.

- Proteins;
