The Original US Purveyor of Sprouted Pili Nuts
Grown naturally in the rich volcanic soils of the Filipino rain forest, our wild, hand-harvested sprouted pili nuts are lightly coated with raw Himalayan salt and finished with a touch of coconut MCT oil.
After harvest, the pili nuts are sprouted and activated through a salt water soak and then dehydrated. The activation process breaks down the phytic acid and enzyme inhibitors contained within raw pili nuts helping to retain the nuts' nutrient density. Activating or sprouting the pili nut allows the body to access the pili nut’s numerous nutrients. The result is a super-nut with a rich buttery taste, containing a range of essential vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, manganese, copper, phosphorus, and zinc.
A complete protein containing all 8 amino acids, pili nuts contain the highest fat and lowest carbohydrate content of any nut varietal.
To maintain freshness, we recommend storing your pili nuts in the refrigerator. While some love the crunchy texture of cold pili nuts, pili nuts are best at room temperature.
At Pili Hunters, we have formed strong, ethical relationships with the Filipino communities that enable us to bring our delicious, activated pili nuts to you. In many of the Philippines’ rural communities, poverty drives villagers to turn to illegal logging and poaching to support themselves. However, by purchasing Pili Hunters' pili nut products, we provide members of these communities with an environmentally friendly job - and a stake in the preservation of their natural surroundings. Pili Hunters' pili nut products rely on the health of the environment and their cultivation encourages all involved to protect these naturally beautiful and ever so important rainforests.
