Proudly unrefined and unprocessed, Baja Gold owes its incredible power to the vitality of the ocean. To ensure they offer the highest quality products to their customers, they regularly analyze our product with third-party laboratories to ensure it remains pure and pristine.
Baja Gold Sea Salt is harvested at an inland lagoon located in a remote and pristine estuary on the Sea of Cortez in Baja California, MX. One of the most biologically diverse and mineral-rich bodies of water on earth, the Sea of Cortez remains today a clean and undeveloped waterscape.
Unlike other sea and table salt brands, Baja Gold is unprocessed and unrefined, harvested from a sea containing lower salinity than the oceans. International salt mining companies wash their sea salt to create clean white salt. This process removes minerals and creates almost pure sodium chloride, which has very limited nutritional value on its own. International regulations require that a product labeled as “table salt” must contain a minimum of 97-99% sodium chloride. The sodium chloride contained in Baja Gold is considerably less at 70-80%, increasing the total mineral and trace element content.
Baja Gold Liquid Ocean Minerals is an all-natural, concentrated ionic mineral and trace element solé water created exclusively from Baja Gold Mineral Sea Salt and purified water. Ocean-based nutrients help support overall wellness and ionic electrolytes provide nature’s spark. Plus, add to drinking water for a flavorful hydration boost. Liquid Ocean Minerals can also be used as an oral rinse or anywhere saline solutions may be helpful.
Ingredients: purified water, Baja Gold mineral sea salt.
How to use
Take ½ tsp of Baja Gold Liquid Ocean Minerals under the tongue and hold for one minute before swallowing. Take in the morning and evening for best results. Use smaller amounts to mineralize drinking water.

This is a therapeutic grade probiotic recommended for people on the GAPS (Gut and Psychology Syndrome) Diet.
According to their website: Bio-Kult is a unique multispecies, multistrain probiotic with 14 strains of beneficial bacteria. This means that Bio-Kult can deliver high concentrations of beneficial bacteria to the colonisation sites in the gut – and therefore be able to help a more diverse range of digestive disorders.
The beneficial bacteria in Bio-Kult are micro-encapsulated during the freeze drying process, which gives two main benefits:
1. They are protected from the harsh acid environment of the stomach and are therefore able to colonise the full length of the gastrointestinal tract.
2. The process allows Bio-Kult to be stored at room temperature without the need for refrigeration. Bio-Kult can be used on a continuous basis or for a short period of time, e.g. when taking antibiotics
Ingredients: Probiotic cultures [Bacillus subtilis PXN 21, Bifidobacterium spp. (B. bifidum PXN 23, B. breve PXN 25, B. infantis PXN 27, B. longum PXN 30), Lactobacillus spp. (L. acidophilus PXN 35, L. delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus PXN 39, L. casei PXN 37, L. plantarum PXN 47, L. rhamnosus PXN 54, L. helveticus PXN 45, L. salivarius PXN 57), Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis PXN 63, Streptococcus thermophilus PXN 66], Cellulose (bulking agent), Vegetable Capsule (Hydroxypropylmethyl Cellulose).
Strength: Minimum 2 billion probiotic microorganisms per capsule (2x109 CFU/capsule), equivalent to 10 billion probiotic microorganisms per gram (1x1010 CFU/gram)
Storage: Store in a cool dry place - no need to refrigerate. Visit www.gapsdiet.com for dosage recommendations or use as directed by your health care practitioner or doctor.

Combines X-Factor Gold™ Concentrated Butter Oil (1/3 of contents) with Blue Ice™ Fermented Cod Liver Oil (2/3 of contents) in easy-to-take capsule form. The butter oil is extracted from dairy milk produced by cows that graze exclusively on irrigated grass of the Northern Great Plains. The combination of climate and irrigation produces a rapidly growing specialized forage ensuring optimal levels of Activator X. Casein and lactose free.
Dr. Weston A. Price discovered High Vitamin Butter Oil in the 1930s, and believed there was an extremely synergistic effect between High Vitamin Butter Oil and traditional cod liver oil. He treated many patients with this combination.
Ingredients: Fermented Cod Liver oil, butter oil concentrated through centrifugation, unbleached beeswax as thickener, Plant cellulose (capsules), silca. Contains COD (Pacific Cod) Milk. Allergy Statement: This product is made from wild caught fish and may contain other seafood allergens such as shellfish.
Many of the great historical cultures had one sacred food which they relied on to ensure strong mind, body, and spirit: Fermented fish/fish liver oil. The Mighty Roman Soldier was given a daily ration of fermented fish oil. The Stoic Scandinavian Viking had a drum of fermenting cod livers outside the door of his home. Grandma always had a bottle of cod liver oil in the back cupboard. Nutrient assays, including vitamins A and D, for these fermented oils vary widely depending on methodology, lab and batch. Current science struggles to answer the questions we have on our sacred fermented foods. There are many naturally occurring metabolites and co-factors that make the issue of measuring natural nutrients difficult in the fermented oils. We do know that historical cultures liberally consumed these sacred foods to great benefit without today’s standardization of knowledge.

Blue Ice Fermented Cod Liver Oil in liquid form, flavored with organic orange and lemon oil.
Cod Liver Oil is know to have high levels of the omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, and very high levels of vitamin A and vitamin D. According to Blue Ice: "Fish oils have historically been fermented for extraction; back in the Roman empire days, Viking era and all the way up to the mid 1850’s. Rendering was introduced during the mid 1850’s as a more efficient fish liver processing method. The livers yielded a much higher total oil volume and the process could be accomplished in several hours rather than several months. What they did not understand is the effects that heat had on the nutrients; their science was not ready to address this question. As with all industrial models, the focus was on profitability, speed or turns and, marketability (taste)."

Celtic Sea Salt® is authentic, unprocessed whole salt from one of the most pristine coastal regions of France. Since 1976, Celtic Sea Salt® has been harvested by the paludiers (salt farmers) of Brittany using a farming method that preserves the purity and balance of ocean minerals. The coarse salt is great for making krauts , grinding with spices or adding to dishes where you want a big crunch of salty goodness.

Fine ground is great for table salt and for baking.
This flavorful broth is made from the bones, feet and heads of organic chickens. A splash of Bernie's apple cider vinegar helps draw minerals out of the bones. We simmer it at just the right temperature for 12-16 hours to draw out the nutrients without damaging them by overcooking, and to bring out a lovely flavor.
According to Sally Fallon, author of Nourishing Traditions, "[Bone broth] contains minerals in a form the body can absorb easily—not just calcium but also magnesium, phosphorus, silicon, sulphur and trace minerals. It contains the broken down material from cartilage and tendons--stuff like chondroitin sulphates and glucosamine, now sold as expensive supplements for arthritis and joint pain."
You can simply heat the broth with a little salt and pepper, tamari, fish sauce, coconut aminos, miso or any flavoring of your choice. Add it to soups and stews, cook your rice or any starches in it, or braise chicken parts and vegetables for dinner. Cook it down for an umami-rich demi-glace! TSH worker-owner Mud Hut loves making Egg Drop Soup, cooking the whites in the broth first with a little salt and pepper, then adding the yolk and turning the heat off after just a few seconds.
One ingenious way to incorporate broth into your life is to freeze it in ice cube trays, then store the cubes in a bag or container in the freezer. Heat a few anytime you want a cup of broth, add a few cubes when you cook rice or any starch, add to a soup or stew...you get the picture.

This flavorful gelatin-rich broth is made from Marin Sun Farms beef bones and browned meat, filtered water, and a splash of apple cider vinegar. Our beef broth is cooked for approximately 48 hours before being jarred, lidded and cooled. According to Dr. Thomas Cowan, "In healthy, traditional cultures, when an animal was slaughtered, all the parts were put to use, including the bones, to make mineral-rich broth. Our modern diet, having largely forgotten the use of broth as the basis of our cooking, is estimated to have less than half the mineral content of more traditional diets. This rich mineral content and the fact that soup broths greatly aid digestion are just two of the many reasons why everyone should make soup broth a part of their daily diet."
We do not recommend that you freeze the beef broth in these jars. Although the jars are meant to be freezer-safe, we have found that the beef broth can still crack the jar when frozen. You can transfer the broth to a different container to freeze it. We find that, unopened, the broth lasts for four weeks or more in the fridge.

Landsea is the pacific northwestern incarnation of the traditional Japanese seasoning gomasio (‘goma’: sesame +’ shio’= salt). In this version the salt is replaced with bull kelp, a mineral rich algae and nettles, a nutrient dense medicinal plant, which both flourish abundantly in this region. Landsea is designed to let the wild flavors of the Orcas Island shine, and to support your body with their nourishing powers. The salty flavor of bull kelp is predominantly potassium rather than sodium. This makes it an excellent substitute for table salt. Dried bull kelp is composed of up to 50% mineral, primarily potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous and iodine among others. Bull kelp is also full of vitamins and essential fatty acids. Nettles have been described as nature’s multi-vitamin. They are loaded with vitamins and minerals and have been used for centuries to cure a wide variety of ailments and to support many systems of the body. Sesame is a great source of copper and manganese as well as calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorous, vitamin b1, zinc, molybdenum, selenium and dietary fiber.

A nutritious, delicious REAL FOOD bar made with dried plums (prunes) blended with Medjool dates, Artisana Organics coconut butter and coconut oil, orange juice and zest, and dusted with Native Forest dried coconut. Sweet but not too sweet, balanced by the healthy fat from the coconut, with fiber to regulate blood sugar and electrolytes from a touch of sea salt, these are a great, nourishing snack to eat on the go — “in transit” — and the dried fruit might help with the other kind of transit, too!
The bar comes uncut and wrapped in brown butcher paper.

Unlike national brands, Vital Choice canned Albacore Tuna is cooked only once, to preserve its fresh flavor, firm texture, and healthful omega-3s. In addition to ample protein, Albacore provides omega-3s in abundance, and substantial amounts of vitamin D.
All Vital Choice Albacore comes from a North Pacific fishery in which smaller boats line-catch individual tuna using the sustainable troll method, which ensures careful handling of each fish, safety for dolphins, and very minimal bycatch.
*Dolphin safe
* No added oil, water or salt
* Low sodium
* Easy-open top
* Certified Kosher (OU B.Y. & M.T.—full oversight) *
* Certified sustainable by Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Thanks to its sustainable harvest and lower mercury content, albacore from this fishery is categorized as “Super Green” by Monterey Bay Aquarium. Vital Choice has this to say about their Albacore Tuna: "[It] is sustainably harvested by our neighbor Paul Hill, who quickly flash-freezes it on his small boat to preserve the fish at its peak of freshness. Because predatory fish such as tuna accumulate mercury over time, Paul provides us with younger, smaller Albacore tuna (14 lbs. or less) for optimal purity."
Vital Choice premium quality Portuguese Mackerel comes from a family that has been picking and packing the finest fish for more than 100 years, selecting the fattiest, tastiest mackerel and processing and cooking them with the care needed to ensure fine flavor and texture.

Vital Choice Portuguese Mackerel is delicious added to salads or sandwiches or eaten right out of the can.
*NOTE: Unlike King Mackerel, which pregnant and nursing women are advised to avoid, Vital Choice's Atlantic “chub” Mackerel (Scomber colias) presents no safety concerns, as it is an entirely different species with very low levels of mercury.
Vital Choice genuine Atlantic mackerel (Scomber colias) make a delicious, health-promoting meal or snack full of essential nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, protein, calcium, potassium, iron, selenium, and vitamins B6, B12, D3, E, and K. Mackerel and other fatty fish have long been known as "brain food" because they are a rich source of nutrients that make up the brain's nerve cell membranes. Eating omega-3 rich fish helps keep brain cell walls flexible, optimizing their health and function. Meaty and mild tasting, try them with our Mayonnaise, scrambled eggs, or with fresh bread by a lake in the mountains.
