UshaEats - The Ultimate Lifestyle Destination

Our names are Usha and Quinten, and our venture, UshaEats, was born from our desire to share the valuable knowledge gained through our personal health journey. Witnessing the transformations in others' well-being when they incorporate more raw, fresh, and nutrient-rich foods into their lives brings us immense joy. Maintaining healthy eating habits can be challenging for many, especially due to limited support and a lack of wholesome food options in local stores. Our mission revolves around offering guidance, resources, and an array of nourishing foods and snacks to aid both young and old in transitioning to a diet centered around fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs, or simply, a healthier diet. By eliminating dairy and gluten, genetically modified foods, pesticides and herbicides, artificial flavors, and processed foods, we strive to empower individuals on their path to wellness. We firmly believe that returning to our roots and embracing natural food choices not only enhances our personal health but also contributes to the well-being of our planet.

TO HELP HEAL MANKIND ONE TUMMY AT A TIME!

We're passionate about sharing our knowledge and helping you reach your goals.  
We are dedicated to destroying the misconception that healthy food is bland, unappetizing and unsatisfying.  With the right ingredients and preparation, healthy meals can be just as satisfying and flavorful as their less healthy counterparts and we are committed to helping people prioritize their health without sacrificing taste.  

At Usha Eats, our philosophy centers on maximizing the nutritional value of our foods while effectively reducing the impact of antinutrients. To achieve this, we meticulously soak and sprout all our nuts, seeds, and grains. Seed and nuts are rich in healthy fats, protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. However, these nutritional bombs contain a lot of phytic acid, which is considered an antinutrient, because it binds to minerals like calcium, iron, and zinc in the digestive tract and makes those less available for absorption by the body. Over time, this can lead to mineral deficiencies. Phytic acid is for the seed, like armor is for a soldier. This "armor" protects the seed, nut or grain from damage, degradation, premature sprouting, predators, and environmental stressors. Soaking the seed in the ideal conditions, tells it, that it is the right time to sprout. It then neutralizes the phytic acid and activates the release of nutrients, providing the young plant (or the consumer) with the necessary minerals to thrive.  

Whenever possible, we prioritize local, organic, and pesticide-free fruits and vegetables, picked at the peak of maturity, to guarantee that our customers receive the utmost nutritional benefits from their meals.  Locally-sourced produce guarantees freshness and reduces the environmental impact associated with long-distance transportation. Fresh foods retain more of their essential vitamins and minerals, providing enhanced nutritional value. Organic farming, which eschews synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, promotes ecological balance and healthier soil, benefiting our planet. Sun-ripened foods, allowed to mature naturally, not only offer superior flavor but also have a higher concentration of antioxidants. Moreover, the sugars in sun-ripened fruits mature optimally, contributing to the alkalinity of our bodies rather than acidity (in their unripe state), which is beneficial for maintaining a healthy internal balance. By opting for these foods, our customers can enjoy better taste and nutritional benefits while supporting sustainable, eco-friendly agricultural practices.
