Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Thanks to your generous support we have been able to continually
innovate. Alive, Organic Sunflower Butter is our latest creation.
We’ve added Black Sesame Oil to make it more spreadable
and alive honey and Royal Himalaya Pink Crystal Salt as natural
preservatives. Our Black Sesame Oil, a Living Tree exclusive,
gives it depth of flavor.
We have put on sale for February some of our
most wonderful creations including Pumpkin Seed Butter, Coconut
Mango Persimmon Butter, Desiree Black Sesame Pesto and Hemp
Seed Butter.
February is Chocolate Ecstasy Month! We feature
a Chocolate Combination Pack containing all five of our alive,
organic chocolates.
Master Chef Diana Hirsch is creating a recipe for alive pecan
pie. We give below, Part One, the crust. It is made from almonds,
pecans and medjool dates. Needless to say you can use this
crust for many other confections. Part Two, the filling, will
appear in the next newsletter.
We were edified to hear, last week, there went
out a call from Washington for a ”new generation of
safe, clean nuclear power plants”. Nuclear power is
neither safe nor clean. There is no such thing as a “safe”
dose of radiation and just because nuclear pollution is invisible
doesn’t mean it’s “clean”. For years,
nuclear plants have been leaking radioactive waste from underground
pipes and radioactive waste pulls into the groundwater at
sites across the nation.
Now if we stand back and look, this obscenity
fits in with the attacks on raw milk and on raw almonds and
the relentless drive to weaken organic standards. Not to mention
the near universality of chemical laden, synthetic and genetically
engineered foods.
We ask ourselves, "Just what is it about
aliveness that seems to pose such a threat?" Could it
be that it is the antithesis of subservience, acquiescence
and servility? Could it be that live food is intrinsically
political? Eating alive, organic food has become a political
act. With that green smoothie in your hand,you are standing
up and saying no to deadliness. You are saying yes! to family
farmers.You were saying, yes! to family and friends and neighbors.
You are saying yes! to the people of America, to its topsoil,
to its plants and animals. How stuck, deeply stuck is a nation
that throws away $800 billion bailing out the selfsame people
who created the bubble. That creates a healthcare program
that is little more than an enormous trough for the insurance
and pharmaceutical companies. Is it not clear that “change
you can believe in” is a illusion? Cynical politicians
aren’t going to do it. The rebirthing of America can
only come from you. As Abraham Lincoln rightly asked, Is
there any better or equal hope in the world?

New This Month
| New!
Alive Organic Sunflower Butter |
| |
Our
newest creation.Beginning with organic sunflower seeds
we have added our unique Living Tree Alive Black Sesame
Oil. We have also added alive Brazilian Honey and a
dash of Himalayan Pink Crystal Salt as natural preservatives.
Sunflower seeds are very high in Vitamin E, a highly
effective anti-inflammatory and immunity enhancer. Studies
have shown strong links between Vitamin E and eye health.
Additionally, just 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds provides
half the daily recommended serving of Vitamin B1, or
Thiamin, which helps the body to convert blood sugar
into energy and strengthens the immune system. Sunflower
seeds are also high in pantothenic acid, known to reduce
the effects of acne and aid in the healing scars and
wounds. Overall, sunflower seeds are calorie for calorie,
one of nature's most potent forms of nutrition.
Sesame oil is one of the oldest oils known man, with
samples as much as 3000 years old being found by archaeologists
in India and Persia. This ancient healing oil is high
in manganese, copper, and calcium, along with two chemicals
totally unique to sesame seeds, sesamin and sesamolin.
Sesamin has been shown to increase the body's ability
to burn fat while also decreasing its fat storage capacity,
making it an increasingly popular supplement for weight
loss. Research shows that sesamolin can protect the
liver from oxidative damage. When rubbed on the skin,
sesame oil has been known to relieve sunburns, aid in
the healing process, and, according to some reports
even reduce wrinkles.
Keep refrigerated.

| Alive,Organic
Pumpkin Seed Butter |
| |
A
delightful pumpkin seed spread made from Austrian pumpkin
seeds. Very nourishing and energizing. A balanced
source of good protein. High in zinc, a mineral that
aids the healing process.Delicious, nutritious, nutty-flavored
pumpkin seeds have diuretic properties; diuretics clearly
help reduce heart attacks and strokes, an American Journal
of Cardiology study says (Wall St.Journal,1/4/05,p.1).
Studies have shown that pumpkin seeds are beneficial
for the prostate gland. They soothe irritated
tissues, eliminate pain, and expel parasites. Pumpkin
seeds aid milk production in nursing mothers.
Made from a variety of pumpkin seed that is a culinary
specialty of south eastern Austria (Styria),These Styrian
pumpkin seeds have an intense nutty taste and are rich
in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Studies have also
shown that pumpkin seeds, which contain amino acids,
steroidal compounds, and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids,
may lower the risk of certain types of kidney stones
and improve symptoms associated with enlarged prostates.
Additionally, pumpkin seeds reportedly contain significant
amounts of L-tryptophan. Some studies have also found
pumpkin seeds to prevent arteriosclerosis and regulate
cholesterol levels.
Try it on fruit slices and on flax crackers.

| Organic Coconut Mango Persimmon
Butter |
| |
We’ve
combined organic mango, persimmon, pineapple and coconut
to bring you a creation filled with the wonder of existence.
The mango, pineapple and coconut convey the exuberance
of the tropics, and the persimmon – the glow of
California’s wondrous fertile Central Valley.

| Desiree Black Sesame Pesto
with Sundried Tomatoes |

Here's a zesty
pesto made from our organic, UNHULLED, black sesame
seeds and organic, sundried tomatoes. We've added organic basil,
thyme, garlic, cumin, rosemary, cayenne, our Alive Olive
Oil and Royal Himalayan Pink Crystal Salt to make it
satisfyingly good! Its a symphony of flavors. Use it
on carrot and celery sticks and on flax seed crackers
for hors d'oeuvres.
Black sesame seed is an excellent source
of calcium for those avoiding cow's milk. Used in traditional
Chinese medicine to nourish and fortify the liver and
kidney yin. Said to help blurred vision, tinnitus, and
dizziness. Used traditionally to help patients recover
from severe illness. Will nourish blood deficiency in
the body, lubricates the intestines and deep internal
organs. Helps move the bowel.

| Alive, Organic Hemp Seed Butter |
| |
This
butter has a rich, nutty flavor. Try it on carrot and
celery sticks.
Hemp Seed Butter is one of nature's richest sources
of complete protein (35%) and Omega-3 and Omega-6 Essential
Fatty Acids (40%).
Hemp seeds offer a high concentration of omega 6 and
omega 3 in a ration of about 3:1. This exceeds the ratio
recommended by health authorities and compensates in
part for omega-3 deficiencies in the rest of our diet.
