Tattva’s Herbs is proud to present our new Capomo (Maya Nut) Coffee
alternative. This caffeine – free superfood drink looks, tastes and smells
very similar to coffee, while boasting countless health benefits. Capomo
(sometimes referred to as Maya Nut, Bread Nut, Ramon Nut, etc.) is rich in
natural flavor and is prepared in the same way as coffee. Capomo can be
enjoyed at any time of day or night because it is free from caffeine,
stimulants, sugar and gluten. It does not increase blood pressure or heart
rate, as coffee and other caffeinated beverages do. You do not have to deal
with the “caffeine crash” (the ups & downs we get from drinking caffeinated
drinks) Simply add hot water and enjoy! Capomo is harvested in a very unique
and compelling manner. The Maya nuts are collected by hand from the jungle
floor once they have fallen from the trees. Collection happens daily, in the
early dawn before the animals have a chance to feed on them. Once the nuts are
collected, they are dried in the sun for 2-3 months, at which time they are
ready to be roasted and prepared for human consumption. Capomo (Brosimum
alicastrum) is in the fig family and was the staple food for prehispanic
cultures. This delicious superfood contains numerous nutritional benefits. It
is one of the richest plant sources of amino acids which, among many others
have been shown to positively affect mood and contentment. It is also high in
protein, fiber, calcium, potassium, folate, iron, zinc, and vitamins A, B, C
and E, while at the same time it is low in fat and calories. In addition to
the many health benefits of Capomo, it is beneficial for all of the
surrounding communities, people, animals and all forms of nature in the areas
in which it grows. Capomo empowers and employs more than 600 rural and
indigenous men and women who have formed 25 different autonomous businesses to
produce and market Maya Nut products.
