Keto Peanut Butter Granola - 250g - Raw Gorilla

How do you upgrade porridge? Check our quick and easy tips for an amazing healthy home-made bowl of oatmeal:1. Make it with nut milk like hazelnut milk, almond milk or cashew milk. Whether you use it for porridge or an oat bowl pant-based milk made with nuts will enhance the flavour of oats. 2. Add some fresh fruit like sliced banana, apple or berries. Fresh fruits will bring your porridge to another level. Mixed or topped with fruits, your porridge will provide you with more fibre and essential vitamins (health bomb!). 3. Add some nuts, like almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, pistachios and more. Nuts are a great companion to oatmeal. They will make it even healthier (another health bomb!) and give it an extra crunch. 4. Top it with chia seeds, hemp seeds or flaxseed. Seeds are a fantastic topping for nearly every dish. Paired with porridge, they will give it an extra crunch, extra fibre and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. 5. Add some aromatic spices like turmeric, nutmeg, ginger or cinnamon. Many spices will be great to upgrade your porridge. Start with a bit of cinnamon, then add some turmeric, nutmeg or ginger and create your favourite porridge seasoning. They will make your porridge warmer and add a few health benefits as well. 6. Add some agave or maple syrup instead of sugar. If you need a bit of sweetness, skip the sugar, and instead go for agave or maple syrup. 7. Add a dash of your favourite juice. Fruit juice is also a great sweetener for porridge. If you decide to use it, remember to reduce the amount of milk. 8. Use organic oats and top-quality sea salt. Quality matters also when it comes to every food, even salt.

We’ve all heard the classic saying that ‘Breakfast is the most important meal of the day’, but is there any truth to it? Well, some of the clue to why it’s touted as being so essential is in the name itself: it’s the way to break our overnight fast. But is skipping it really the dietary faux pas we’ve been led to believe? Well, it turns out there’s many reasons why breakfast is such a significant mealtime. Many studies have shown that regularly eating a good breakfast is linked to better memory and focus, decreased ‘bad’ cholesterol, less risk of developing certain diseases, weight management and good health overall. So seems breakfast is rather beneficial, after all! To help you out, we’ve made a list of healthy breakfast foods, which are mostly vegan friendly, and thrown in a few recipes if you’re needing some inspiration. Let’s get cracking! Oats Having oats for breakfast is one of the best ways you can start your day. They’re one of the healthiest grains on the planet, and are packed full of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Oats are also rich in fibre, which keeps you feeling satiated for longer, whilst also lowering blood sugar and insulin response. This is particularly important in the morning, so you don’t start to crave unhealthy snacks or overeat later in the day. Another great aspect of oats is that they’re easy to prepare and can be paired with basically anything. Make them sweet or savoury by including whatever toppings you heart desires. For a slightly different take on traditional oatmeal, have a look at our Fruit & Nut Overnight Oats. Muffins Muffins at first glance may not seem like the healthiest choice, however there’s still ways you can enjoy these baked goods for breakfast. So, no need to chase away the muffin man just yet! A lot of the ingredients in muffins can be swapped out for healthier alternatives. Instead of sugar think fruit, honey, peanut butter, or cacao. And substitute some of the flour for grains such as oats and quinoa. There are so many different types of healthy muffin recipes out there. One combination we think is delicious for breakfast is our Banana & Almond Muffins. If you’re in rush in the mornings, why not make a big batch and pop them in the freezer. Then, simply reheat them in the toaster oven in the mornings, so you’re breakfast ready. Vegan Scramble Prefer something savoury for your first meal of the day? Well look no further than a scramble. Traditionally this would be made with eggs, but for all our vegan and health conscious friends out there, the eggs can easily be replaced with a plant-based option. Two alternatives are chickpeas or tofu. Both are great sources of protein, whilst also being gluten free and vegan. Protein is an important staple of your diet as numerous studies have shown it increases metabolic health, builds muscle, and aids in weight loss. We’ve got your egg free breakfast covered with our Chickpea Scramble. Chickpeas also contain 8 of the 9 essential amino acids, which are structural components of protein that need to be acquired from the food you eat. Smoothie We all know how vital it is to get enough fruit and vegetables in our diets. They’re packed full of essential nutrients and antioxidants, plus, their fibre content helps keep your digestive system healthy and keeps you feeling full. Smoothies are the perfect way to incorporate some of your 5- a day into your breakfast. There are endless possibilites of ingredients to make your smoothie from, so why not get creative? We personally love this delicious Strawberry Chia Seed Smoothie, along with our heavenly Chocolate Protein Smoothie. Both great ways to get some extra protein in to your morning. Pancakes Pancakes are another breakfast staple that is usually considered unhealthy, but we’ve got your back so you can still keep flipping those delicious cakes! Pancakes can be made from a variety of Healthier Flour Alternatives which contain more nutritional benefits, as opposed to the standard all-purpose flour. If you’re looking to up your protein intake, you can choose a high protein flour such as soya or quinoa flour, alternatively add some protein powder to the mix. Protein is essential for healthy bones, skin, cartilage, and even keeping your hair strong and shiny. If you looking some pancake ideas, then look no further than our Gluten Free Big Boy Pancakes with Muscovado Treacle Syrup or Banana & Strawberry Pancakes Toast Another breakfast favourite! If you want to make this classic morning meal healthier, we recommend switching out white bread for loaves made with minimal ingredients, such as wholegrain, rye or sourdough. This will have less of an impact on your blood sugar levels and are generally lower in fat. If you’re a keen baker, why not try making your own. As to what you decide to put on the toast, well the options are countless. If you’re after a savoury option, we think avocados, tomatoes, roasted peppers, mushrooms, or beans are all highly nutritious and delicious choices. If you prefer your toast to be sweet why not check out our recipe for Vegan French Toast ft. Nooch Granola Granola is a breakfast staple, and for good reason. It’s a much healthier and nutritious choice than many of the popular sugary and calorie laden cereals. Just be aware that a lot of store bought versions of granola can be loaded with added sugars and preservatives, so we suggest mixing your own using oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits. These ingredients are rich sources of iron, zinc, and magnesium, as well as B vitamins and vitamin E. You can either eat it as it is, with plant milk, or even sprinkled over yoghurt. For an on the go option, how about trying our Zesty Lemon Chia Seed Granola Bars.

Navigating the world of sugar alternatives can feel a bit like a maze. If you’ve started exploring a Keto products or low-carb lifestyle, you’ve likely come across the word Erythritol. It sounds a little scientific, doesn’t it? But behind that long name is a very simple, naturally occurring ingredient that we’ve come to value highly here at our warehouse in Kent. At Whole Food Earth, we believe in a "clean-label" pantry—which means we only use ingredients that serve a clear purpose for your body. Here is why Erythritol has earned its place in our Keto products and why it might be the right choice for your kitchen, too. What Exactly is Erythritol? Despite the technical-sounding name, Erythritol is actually a type of carbohydrate called a sugar alcohol (or polyol). It occurs naturally in various fruits like grapes, pears, and watermelons, and is even found in fermented foods like cheese and mushrooms. Unlike traditional sugar, which is quickly absorbed and used for energy (often leading to that dreaded "sugar crash"), Erythritol is handled differently by the body. It provides the sweetness we enjoy, but with almost zero calories and, most importantly, zero impact on blood sugar levels. Why It’s a Keto Favourite For those following a Keto diet, the goal is to keep blood sugar stable and stay in "ketosis." Most sweeteners—even some "natural" ones like honey or maple syrup—can cause an insulin spike that interrupts that process. Zero Glycemic Index: Erythritol has a Glycemic Index (GI) of zero. This means it doesn't cause a spike in glucose, making it a reliable choice for diabetics and Keto enthusiasts alike. Friendly to Your Teeth: Unlike sugar, Erythritol isn't metabolised by oral bacteria, meaning it doesn't contribute to tooth decay. It’s a win for your sweet tooth and your dentist! Easy on the Tummy: Some sugar alcohols are known for being a bit tough on digestion. However, Erythritol is unique. Because of its smaller molecular structure, most of it is absorbed into the bloodstream and then excreted unchanged, rather than sitting in the gut. This makes it much gentler on the stomach than alternatives like Maltitol. The Whole Food Earth Standard: Quality Over Everything When we source Erythritol for our range, we apply the same "Whole Food" philosophy we use for our lentils and seeds. We look for Non-GMO, high-purity sources to ensure that while you're cutting down on sugar, you aren't adding in anything "tacky" or artificial. For us, it's about providing a Clean-Label Pantry solution. We want you to be able to bake a delicious Keto treat or sweeten your morning coffee with the peace of mind that comes from using an ingredient that is honest, effective, and backed by science.

We have all been there: the 3pm slump. You’ve had a nutritious lunch, yet by mid-afternoon, the "brain fog" sets in, your focus evaporates, and you’re reaching for a biscuit just to make it to the end of the work day. In 2026, the health conversation has moved beyond simply what we eat. Thanks to the "Zoe-effect" and a national shift toward data-led nutrition, we now understand that Food Sequencing—the specific order in which you consume the items on your plate—is the secret to flattening the glucose curve and reclaiming your energy. At Whole Food Earth, we believe in the power of unrefined, natural ingredients. By mastering the art of Food Sequencing, you can use these staples to flatten your glucose curve and reclaim your energy levels for good. What is Food Sequencing? Food sequencing is a science-backed method of eating food groups in a specific order to control how sugar (glucose) enters your bloodstream. By simply rearranging your plate, you can reduce post-meal glucose spikes by up to 73%. The golden rule for sustained energy is: Fibre first, Protein and Fats second, and Starches or Sugars last. Food sequencing is the practice of eating different food groups in a specific order to control how quickly sugar (glucose) enters your bloodstream. Scientific studies, including those popularised by the "Glucose Goddess" movement, show that by eating in a set order, you can reduce your post-meal glucose spike by a staggering margin—without changing a single ingredient of the meal. The Science: Why the Order Matters To understand why this works, we have to look at the biology of your digestive system. 1. The Fibre "Mesh" (The Starter) When you start your meal with fibre—think a leafy green salad, tenderstem broccoli, or even a few walnuts—you are building a "protective mesh" in your small intestine. Fibre does not break down into glucose. Instead, it slows down "gastric emptying" and creates a physical barrier that prevents following sugars from being absorbed too rapidly. 2. Protein and Fats (The Buffer) Next, you move to your proteins and healthy fats. Whether it’s a piece of grilled salmon, a soft-boiled egg, or half an avocado, these nutrients further signal to your body that it is full. Protein and fat take longer to digest than carbohydrates, acting as a secondary buffer that ensures a slow, steady release of energy into the system. 3. Carbs and Sugars (The Grand Finale) Finally, you eat your starches—the potatoes, the sourdough bread, or the fruit. Because the fibre and protein are already "blocking the pipes," the glucose from these carbs enters the bloodstream in a gentle, rolling curve rather than a jagged, inflammatory spike. The Benefits: Beyond Just Avoiding the "Slump" While "All-Day Energy" is the headline benefit, the metabolic advantages of food sequencing are profound: Stable Moods: Glucose spikes are often followed by a "crash," which triggers the release of cortisol and adrenaline, making you feel anxious or "hangry." Stable sugar means a stable mind. Reduced Cravings: When your blood sugar is flat, your hunger hormones (ghrelin) remain suppressed for longer. You won't find yourself hunting for a sugary snack an hour after eating. Weight Management: High glucose spikes trigger high insulin surges—the body’s primary fat-storage hormone. By flattening the spike, you keep insulin levels low, allowing the body to access stored fat for fuel more easily. Putting it into a UK Context: A "Sequenced" Day How does this look in practice for a typical British diet? The Sunday Roast: Instead of diving into the roasties first, start with a generous portion of your greens (the fibre). Follow with the meat or nut roast (protein/fat), and save the potatoes and Yorkshire pudding (carbs) for the end of the plate. The Savoury Start: In the Amazon, açaí is eaten traditionally with fish and savoury cassava flour—a perfect example of a high-fibre, high-fat meal that avoids the glucose spikes of the sweetened "smoothie bowls" found on the high street. The Desk Lunch: If you’re having a sandwich, try eating a small side of pickles or a handful of spinach first. If you have a piece of fruit, pair it with a few almonds to ensure the sugar is buffered by fat and fibre. Mastering your metabolic health isn't about deprivation or "dieting" in the traditional sense. It is about strategy. By simply rearranging the architecture of your plate, you can ensure that your body remains fuelled, focused, and free from the energy rollercoasters of the past. The next time you sit down to eat, remember: Fibre, Protein, then Carbs. Your afternoon self will thank you.

When it comes to the food in your pantry, we’ve been conditioned to think that more ingredients mean more value. But with nut butter, the opposite is true. The very best jar you can buy is the one that contains exactly one thing: the nut itself. At Whole Food Earth, we believe that a single-ingredient nut butter isn't just "healthier"—it’s a superior kitchen tool. When you strip away the salt, sugar, and palm oil, you’re left with the pure, unadulterated essence of the nut. Here is why the "one-ingredient" rule is the gold standard for your kitchen. The Artisanal Method: Why Slow is Better Most industrial nut butters are made in a hurry. They use high-speed metal blades that hack the nuts into a paste in seconds. The problem? Those blades get incredibly hot. High heat can damage the delicate, healthy fats and dull the natural flavour of the nuts. The Rawgorilla approach uses the traditional stone-ground method. It’s a slow, artisanal process where the nuts are crushed between stones at a low temperature. The Benefit: Because it stays cool, the nutrients—like Vitamin E, magnesium, and those essential healthy fats—stay completely intact. The Result: You get a naturally creamy texture and a deep, complex flavour that a factory blender simply can't match. One Ingredient = Infinite Versatility The reason most supermarket nut butters are only used on toast is that they are pre-seasoned. If a jar is loaded with salt and sugar, you can't really use it in a savoury dinner. A single-ingredient, stone-ground butter is a blank canvas. Because there are no additives, it works in every corner of your cooking: Savoury Satays & Curries: Stir a spoonful of cashew or peanut butter into a vegetable curry or a stir-fry sauce. It adds a rich, creamy depth without making the dish taste like a dessert. The Ultimate Salad Dressing: Whisk almond butter with a bit of lime juice, ginger, and soy sauce. Because there’s no palm oil in the butter, it emulsifies perfectly into a smooth dressing. Boost Your Baking: Use it as a nutrient-dense replacement for butter or oil in brownies and biscuits. You get the moisture and the healthy fats without the refined additives. Smoothies Without the Crash: A tablespoon of pure nut butter adds protein and fibre to your morning smoothie, helping you stay full until lunch without a sugar spike. Why "Nothing Added" is Everything When a brand adds palm oil, they are doing it to stop the oil from separating. When they add sugar or salt, they are doing it to mask the taste of lower-quality, over-roasted nuts. When you see a jar that lists "100% Almonds" or "100% Cashews," there is nowhere to hide. The nuts have to be the highest quality, and the grind has to be perfect. Choosing a single-ingredient, stone-ground butter means you are getting the most nutrient-dense, flavourful version of that food possible. Artisanal = investment in quality and better health A jar of pure, stone-ground nut butter is one of the most hardworking staples you can have in your kitchen. It’s an investment in better flavour, better biology, and a more versatile way of cooking. Shop our range of Rawgorilla Single-Ingredient Nut Butters

If you’ve been navigating the aisles of a UK health food shop lately—or scrolling through #KetoUK on Instagram—you’ve likely spotted a curious alternative to traditional pasta: Konjac. Often sold as "Slim Noodles" or "Shirataki," these translucent, jelly-like strands are being hailed as the ultimate hack for weight management and blood sugar control. But what exactly is Konjac, and is it a "real" food or just another lab-grown fad? At Whole Food Earth, we’re all about getting back to the root of our nutrition. Let’s peel back the skin on the Konjac plant. What is Konjac? (And how is it made?) Konjac (pronounced kon-jack) comes from the Amorphophallus konjac plant, a perennial tuber native to Southeast Asia and China. In Japan, where it has been used for over 1,500 years, it is known as Konnyaku. While it looks like a cross between an oversized potato and a beetroot, it’s what’s inside that counts. The root is incredibly rich in Glucomannan—a natural, water-soluble dietary fibre. The Journey from Root to Noodle: Harvesting: The starchy corm (root) is dug up and cleaned. Drying & Grinding: The root is dried and ground into a fine flour. The "Miracle" Mix: This flour is mixed with water and a small amount of lime water (calcium hydroxide), which helps the fibres hold their shape. Shaping: The mixture is boiled and shaped into noodles (Shirataki), rice grains, or "steaks" (Konnyaku). The result is a food that is roughly 97% water and 3% fibre, making it almost entirely calorie-free. Why the world is Obsessed with Konjac 1. The Ultimate Keto & Low-Carb Swap For those following a Ketogenic diet, traditional pasta is off the menu. Konjac contains zero net carbs. Because the glucomannan fibre passes through your system without being converted into glucose, it won't kick you out of ketosis or cause a sugar spike. 2. Satiety without the Calories Konjac is a "bulking" fibre. It can absorb up to 50 times its weight in water. When you eat it, it expands slightly in your stomach, sending signals to your brain that you are full. For those looking to manage their weight without feeling deprived, it’s a game-changer. 3. Gut Health & Cholesterol Glucomannan is a prebiotic, meaning it feeds the "good" bacteria in your gut microbiome. Furthermore, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has even acknowledged that glucomannan contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels. The "Konjac Ritual": How to Cook it Properly If you’ve tried Konjac before and found it a bit... "rubbery," you probably skipped the crucial prep steps. Because Konjac is stored in water, it can have a slightly fishy aroma upon opening. Don't panic—this is natural and disappears completely with the right method: Rinse Thoroughly: Put the noodles in a colander and rinse under cold running water for at least 2 minutes. The Dry Fry: This is the "pro-tip." Toss the rinsed noodles into a hot, dry pan (no oil yet!) and cook for 3–5 minutes. This evaporates the excess water and improves the texture, making it much closer to al dente pasta. The Sauce is Boss: Konjac has no flavour of its own. It acts as a sponge for whatever you cook it in. It works best in bold, punchy UK favourites like a Thai Green Curry, a Beef Stir-fry, or even a rich Bolognese. Real Food or Processed "Filler"? In an era where Ultra-Processed Foods (UPFs) are under the microscope, Konjac sits in a unique position. While it is "processed" into a noodle shape, the ingredients remain incredibly simple: water, plant root, and a touch of mineral lime. Unlike "low-calorie" supermarket ready-meals filled with emulsifiers and artificial sweeteners, Konjac is a traditional, plant-based ingredient that has supported health for centuries. The Whole Food Earth Verdict Konjac is a brilliant tool for anyone looking to reduce their calorie intake or manage their carbohydrate levels without giving up the "mouthfeel" of a big bowl of noodles. It’s a clean-label alternative that lets the sauce be the star of the show. Ready to try it?
