Hey Everyone!
We’ve got our Tiger
Nuts on special through the end of the month.
What’s crazy is that 100 grams of tiger nuts includes a whopping 4-5mg of Iron, which is more than red meat. Furthermore, Tiger Nuts have 1.4 mg of Zinc, 36 mg of Magnesium, and 159mg of phosphorus.
100 grams is about 3.5oz of Tiger Nuts. That is a little bit less than half of an 8oz bag, which is on special for only $6.29 each when you
get a 3-pack.
The best way to get this nutrition is by making Tiger Nut Milk. You can dump half a bag in the blender, and make a nut milk in order to get all of that nutrition in a very absorbable way, which includes more than 4-5mg of iron.
Other clinical studies show that they contain a high load of antioxidants, they are a great source of fiber, they work as a prebiotic, they lower bad
cholesterol, and they hold antibacterial and anti-fungal properties. At the study here, Tiger Nuts had bacteria-fighting effects on several dangerous human pathogens, including salmonella and E coli.
Furthermore, at the study here, a phytochemical analyses revealed the presence of quercetin, vitamin C, vitamin E, and mineral zinc in the tiger nuts. In the same study, male rats found that tiger nut supplementation over 30 days significantly increased testosterone levels, stimulated sexual activity, and mating frequency compared to the control group.
What's interesting is that many people in
Africa, Spain, and the Middle East make a special Tiger Nut milk drink, which is traditionally used in these cultures as a natural aphrodisiac. If you go on YouTube, you will see many videos on this. People in Nigeria have used tiger nuts for generations to address low libido, erectile dysfunction, and stamina. They’re consumed by both sexes for increasing vitality, which could extend to sexual desire.
If we look at it from a
nutrient profile standpoint, which includes zinc, vitamin E, magnesium, and arginine, these compounds play roles in sexual health for both men and women. Zinc supports testosterone production, vitamin E aids circulation, magnesium helps with energy and hormone balance, and arginine boosts nitric oxide levels, which can improve blood flow, a key factor in sexual function. For men, arginine improves blood flow, which can aid erectile function. For women, arginine’s role
in boosting nitric oxide and blood flow could enhance arousal by improving circulation to sexual tissues.
There are many more animal studies showing how tiger nuts maybe beneficial for sexual health.
At the study here, Tiger Nut supplementation in rats with erectile dysfunction boosted
nitric oxide and enzyme activity, aiding sexual performance, indicating a potential positive impact on erectile health.
At the study here, in rats with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), tiger nut meal cut PSA, improved organ weight, sperm quality, and histology, hinting at libido benefits.
At the study here, Tiger Nuts in benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) rats enhanced sex hormones levels, sperm cell quality, and motility, suggesting potential benefits for libido and reproductive health in this condition. It also fixed sperm abnormalities like twisted tails, restored morphology, and boosted
motility and normal sperm count, enhancing fertility.
At the study here, the rats showed significantly increased sexual behavior, hormone levels, and antioxidant activities. They concluded that it may help with erectile dysfunction and may be a good source of human nutrition. At the study here, Tiger nut extract significantly increased libido and sperm count in rats. At the study here, Tiger Nut diet in
rats improved erectile function markers, suggesting that tiger nuts may enhance libido and support sexual health. Lastly, at the study here, Tiger nuts aided sperm count and testicular health in alcohol-exposed rats, suggesting protective effects that might indirectly support
libido.
Anyhow, this traditional Tiger Nut Milk used amongst these cultures for enhancing libido is called Horchata De Chufa. Chufa is another name for Tiger Nuts. The drink is simply composed of Tiger Nut Milk, with the possible addition of a sweetener and lemon. You make Tiger Nut Milk in the same way that you would make any other Nut Milk. You blend it in water and simply strain out the contents in a nut milk bag. Many people include dates as the
sweetener in their Horchata De Chufa. Some say that the taste is even better than Almond Milk. Tiger Nuts do have a little sweet edge to it.
If you don't want to make a nut milk out of them, some people like to eat the Tiger Nuts as a snack food. They have a natural sweetness to them, which makes them tasty. They are not actually part of the nut family. It's actually a tuber, and they are grown in the
ground like a carrot or potato. Therefore, they are completely safe to eat for people with any sort of nut allergy.
You can eat them straight out of the bag, but they taste way better to me when they are soaked overnight. When they are soaked overnight, they become crunchy like a nut. If you eat them without soaking them first, they are more chewy like dried chewy coconut flesh.
When you soak them, they become all plumped up, and
they have a nice moisture to them. However, they are somehow not wet, and have that really nice crunch at the same time. You can hear the crunch when you chew down on it. The soaked texture, which makes it crunchy, is perfect in granola, in trail mixes, or just to eat straight.
You simply soak a number of Tiger Nuts overnight, then drain that water. You can then put them in the refrigerator in a closed container.
They are not processed in any other
way rather than being sun dried.
We've got 8oz of Tiger Nuts on special for only $6.29 each when you get a 3-pack.
