About Einkorn Never hybridized, einkorn is pure and nutritious, and a wonderful way to improve your health and wellness. Einkorn was one of the first foods planted, at the birth of agriculture 10,000 years ago. It grew wild for millions of years before that. Just a few years ago, einkorn was close to extinction. Einkorn was abandoned 5,000 years ago, because it is difficult to harvest and mill, and has one fifth the yields of modern wheat. It is the oldest food to make its way back to your table. Jovial Foods worked in Italy with a group of researchers who were replenishing original seeds. They started planting just 50 acres in 2009 and now they are the largest growers of einkorn in the world. Einkorn has more protein than any other grain. It is packed with more nutrients, vitamins, and dietary minerals than regular wheat. Einkorn has 40% more protein and 15% less starch than commercial wheat, plus abundant B Vitamins and trace minerals like iron. A Good Gluten? Einkorn grows tall and proud, just the way nature intended. The gluten in einkorn lacks the high molecular weight proteins that many people can't digest. If you are sensitive to modern wheat, einkorn may provide a delicious alternative. Einkorn does contain gluten and is not ok for those with celiac disease. Einkorn Just Tastes Great Einkorn isn't just rich in history and nutrients - it's also packed with flavor. This isn't one of those superfoods you have to force yourself to enjoy. Intensive farming stripped most wheat of its taste along with its nutritional value. Go back to nature's original wheat for a pleasing flavor that will nourish. With einkorn, you can actually taste wheat the way nature intended it. More Nutrients Means More Energy Einkorn has 30% more protein and 30% less starch than regular wheat, plus abundant B Vitamins and trace minerals like Iron. Those extra nutrients translate directly to more energy and a greater feeling of wellness, not empty calories. About Jovial Foods Meet Carla and Rodolfo Jovial Foods, Inc. was founded by a husband and wife team who has always been passionate about food, farming and traditions. Carla and Rodolfo met in the 1980's in Bologna, where she was spending a year abroad studying Italian and he was studying agriculture. Both were born into family of talented home cooks, he in Italy and she in New England, and food was at the center of their childhoods. A Child's Gluten Sensitivity Inspires A Search For Healthier Foods Carla and Rodolfo discovered that their young daughter's asthma, stomach disturbances, mood swings, chronic sinusitis and excessive hair loss was caused by her body's sensitivity to modern wheat. They both were professionals in the organic food industry, but they realized they needed to go beyond organic. Their focus shifted to creating high-quality gluten free foods for their family. They were not only looking for great tasting, gluten free foods processed without allergens, they also wanted their daughter's food to be made with the best certified organic ingredients. Discovering Einkorn, The Most Ancient Grain Carla and Rodolfo soon suspected that changes in wheat and other varieties of plants over the years were contributing to the increasing number of children with food intolerances. Looking to the past for answers, they discovered a nearly extinct ancient grain called einkorn, nature's original wheat. Einkorn was the first crop farmers grew some 10,000 years ago. It is incredibly nutritious, flavorful and genetically pure. In ein
