It s is a slightly sour powder that is very interesting on nutritional level. Because it is rich in dietary fibres (about 44%), half of which are soluble it has a prebiotic and digestion, intestinal comfort and intestinal transit regulating action. Traditionally it is used as anti diarrhoeal and in general to regain fitness, to improve vitality and strength.
"Raw quality" food is treated below a maximum of 42°C, because enzymes and healthy nutriments (e.g. a large part of vitamins) are destroyed beyond this temperature.

It also has an anti-inflammatory action, provides antioxidants, is rich in vitamin C, potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron. In addition it contains eg pectin, useful against constipation and diarrhea and contributing to the attenuation of the glycaemia peak (rate of blood sugar peak) after a meal and to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels, beat-amyrine palmitate, with sedative and antidepressant properties, ursolic acid (malol) which in tests on mice allowed their muscles to grow and their body fat to reduce,and beta-sitosterol, a compound of the family of phytosterols which competes with the cholesterol in the intestine and decreases its passage in blood.

It has a slightly sour taste and as powder can be diluted in water, juice, smoothies, vegetable drinks, yoghurts, stewed fruit, added to various preparations or simply sprinkled on food.
