BarleyCalled “Café D’Orzo” in Italy, Mugicha in Japan and Boricha in Korea, roasted barley is loved around the world for its dark roasted flavor that is considered cleansing and refreshing when enjoyed as a hot or cold beverage. Roasted barley complements roasted chicory and carob to create Teeccino's coffee-like brew that brims with health benefits. Barley is reputed to be cleansing for the body, good for digestion, helpful in reducing stress, and high in antioxidants. | Carob Organic carob pods, harvested from a wild tree native to the Mediterranean, are lightly roasted to bring out their sweet, chocolatey flavor. A member of the legume family, the dark brown pods contain calcium and 24 antioxidants that help fight free radicals. Pinitol, a unique compound in carob pods, helps boost your energy naturally. Carob’s carbohydrates are bound in complex fiber for a low glycemic index that supports good digestion and regularity. Compared to chocolate, carob is stimulant free, has no added sugar or fat and thus is much lower in calories. | ChicoryRoasted organic chicory root, France’s favorite coffee alternative, imparts a smooth, non-acidic, full-bodied depth to Teeccino. Chicory root contains the highest amount of inulin of any food. Inulin is the prebiotic soluble fiber that feeds your beneficial digestive flora, also called probiotics. Brewing chicory root in hot water naturally extracts its inulin. Improve gut health and support your immune system with a daily cup of Teeccino that keeps your probiotics flourishing! You’ve probably eaten chicory greens before in a salad. Radicchio, endive, escarole and frisée are all varieties of chicory leaves valued for their antioxidants, nutrients and bitter flavor. It’s a super food plant that supports optimal health! |
