We get a lot of questions asking about the nutritional analysis of Chocolate Bliss and other superfoods.   The simple answer is that we do not know or have access to the nutritional breakdown … yet. We have asked David Favor, the creator of the SunFire Super Food line we carry, for this information.  He says it is on his list of things to do.

In the meantime, the lack of a nutritional panel exposes yet another way we’ve been conditioned to think of food that might not always serve us well.  Here are a few perspectives for you to consider:

From David Favor’s Perspective

David tells us that he is a little bit reluctant to put the nutritional breakdown of his products on the label, because it doesn’t really tell you anything useful. He feels that if the label is on there, people will compare what’s on the label to what is on the label of other foods which are not as pristine, natural or nutritionally packed. Also, natural foods don’t just have more nutrition, but that nutrition is also much more available to the body. For instance, when you eat a conventionally grown tomato that’s been picked a while ago, shipped and ripened chemically, and you eat a fresh tomato organically grown in your own garden, they are very different tasting and one is clearly much better for you. But if they had nutritional labeling on them, the labels would be virtually identical.
