EATRIGHT® Enzyme ACTivated Crackers (antioxidant differences)

The aptly named EATRIGHT® Enzyme Activated Crackers are a crack'er of ingenuity with carefully preserved enzymes. Importantly, they are NOT [a "JACK" up, hiJACKed [1] or "overPOWERing...paired...crackers"] that have "microbial enzymes" added back to an ingredient list.

Hence, we use slow and low processing (never above 121 degrees celsius or 248 degrees fahrenheit), and other maximize 'nutritional value' know-how to help enzymatic [*] (Gk. en within, zumē leaven) activity.

And since organic catalysts or catalyzing enzymes are 'dramatically enhanced by abiotic agents' (ozone, UV light, ethylene, salicylic acid (nb. non-isolated salicylate sources: buckwheat, piper sp.), minerals (soil nutrients such as chromium, copper, boron, manganese etc)), we source as many as possible grown outdoors in NEW ZEALAND's 'more UVB sunlight, less air pollution, fewer pest and diseases' harvested ingredients.

The minerals and vitamins are also considered to be “better absorbed” through synergistic combinations of endogenous enzymes rather than synthetic ‘silver bullet’ single cell proteins (SCP) or other 'isolates'. With a good source of "antioxidant" arginine and threonine (ref: USDA) free amino acids as well as antioxidant synergists in "characterizing" ingredients. Where possible, we use 'wild' varietals. For instance, wild carrots have an increased source of phytochemical: trans-isoasarone with bioactivity: secretolytic (secretagogue (Gk. agogos)) and wild kawakawa (Macropiper excelsum [Latin: pipo=chirp, excel=surpass]) has over 60 biologically active compounds.

As you would expect, it is yet another durable [2], commercialized EATRIGHT® ‘edible medicine’ innovation scarcity (R&D&C), standing out in a sea of similarity! [†]. And did you know "the doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will instruct his patients in care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease" by Thomas A. Edison (1847-1931).

[*] NUTRACEUTICALS: current NZ standard industry classification, nutraceuticals are primarily captured as "pharmaceuticals [1841]" or “other food manufacturing not elsewhere classified” [1199]. Some firms may be "packaging services [7320]" [incl. contract packers]. Sales and marketing firms will be other "grocery wholesaling [3609]" or pharmaceutical and "toiletry goods wholesaling [3720]". “Nutraceutical is a broad term describing foods, food ingredients, and dietary supplements that provide specific health or medical benefits.” Ingredients range from common to extremely RARE (ref: Finding the Way: Emerging and future platforms in New Zealand’s bio-economy’ (the Coriolis Report pub.
