How herbspice Helps!
Plant-based & Vegan
One of the best ways to optimize nutrient intake is by adopting a whole food plant-based lifestyle. By doing this the body will naturally optimize the immune system which is critical in the fight against COVID-19. This plant-based diet has been shown to greatly improve quality and longevity of life. It also helps to prevent and reverse lifestyle diseases such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and other compromising health conditions.
Gluten-free
Although gluten in and of itself is a natural and healthy protein found in wheat and other grains, there is an increasing number of people with intolerance and allergies to it. Therefore, we have decided to make herbspice Everything Savory Seasoning gluten-free so that more people can enjoy it.
Cholesterol-free
Cholesterol is an essential nutrient, but it is not needed from the diet. This is because when you live a healthy lifestyle which includes consuming a whole foods plant-based diet, the liver produces all the cholesterol needed by the body. Moreover, some of the consequences of excessive cholesterol intake are diseases such as arteriosclerosis, increased risk of heart attack, and stroke.

MSG-free
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is found naturally in some foods. It is also used as a flavor enhancer regularly added to Chinese food, processed meats, canned vegetables and soups. There have been many reports to the FDA of adverse reactions to foods containing MSG. These reactions include headaches, flushing, sweating, nausea, chest pain and more. However, there does not seem to be any definitive evidence of a link between MSG and these symptoms. Nonetheless, we have decided to exclude MSG from our ingredients as a precautionary measure because we value your health above all things.
Artificial Color-free
Similar to the reasons above, all of our all-natural ingredients provide robust and beautiful colors for our seasoning. From the golden color of the yeast flakes, to the snow-white onions, to the ruby reds of paprika, it is a culinary lover’s dream. All the “coloring” in our seasoning come directly from the fresh and natural herbs we use. It is only for proprietary reasons that we do not list every single herb that we use. You can trust us - your health is our top priority. Feel free to let us know if you have any questions!
Additive & Preservative-free
Due to the high quality of all our ingredients we do not see it necessary to use any additives. The herbs used in our seasoning have been carefully preserved by a natural drying process. All other ingredients, which are sea salt and nutritional yeast, naturally preserve well in and of themselves. Most additives are tested on laboratory animals which can be inhumane and produce results which are not entirely applicable to humans. Furthermore, the long-term effects of additives is unknown. Therefore, we love to keep our ingredients as simple as possible to provide you with the most healthful, known, and understood results.

Good Source of Fiber
One tablespoon of herbspice Everything Savory Seasoning provides 2 grams of fiber. Fiber reduces your risk of constipation and other disorders like colon diverticulosis, colon cancer, and hemorrhoids. It helps to reduce excessive cholesterol levels as well. Diabetes is also improved by fiber intake.
Good Source of Plant-based Protein
Nutritional yeast contains all the essential amino acids which make it a complete plant-based protein. One tablespoon of herbspice Everything Savory Seasoning contains 3 grams of protein. There is no meat on the market that contains more protein per calorie. For an all-purpose seasoning, these features are surely a unique rarity. How does protein help you? Well, the tryptophan amino acid is converted to serotonin in the pineal gland. This reaction is light-dependent; hence it requires darkness. Serotonin is converted into melatonin. And last, but not least increasing melatonin can help your body fight COVID-19 and optimize the immune system. Also, protein in general helps form and maintain body tissues, make antibodies, form blood, produce enzymes, and is essential for energy production.
Certified Non-GMO Nutritional Yeast
What is nutritional yeast? For starters, it is made by growing yeast (saccharomyces cerevisiae) on a sugar-rich molasses medium. Then it is deactivated with heat, washed, pasteurized, dried, and crumbled. How does it help you? Nutritional yeast provides trehalose and beta-glucans that can fight infections and support immune function. This is especially helpful for cases such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. The antibacterial and antiviral properties of nutritional yeast make it especially useful for all to have as a staple in their home. And guess what? It is the main ingredient in herbspice Everything Savory Seasoning! Isn’t that wonderful? Also, the nutritional yeast in our seasoning is what provides plant-based protein, fiber, and other B vitamins, all of which we share the benefits of below. In addition to these nutrients, it contains other trace minerals (such as zinc, selenium, molybdenum, and more), and antioxidants (more on this below). We cannot forget the amazing umami flavor it provides with every bite. Furthermore, contrary to popular belief, it does not contain MSG nor does it cause yeast overgrowth because it is inactive and does not contain candida albicans.

It has anti-carcinogenic properties as well. The allicin it contains is anti-inflammatory and can help with arthritis and other inflammatory health conditions. Last, but not least, garlic has antiviral properties which serve to help in the fight against viruses attacking the body, including COVID-19. Onion has also been shown to be antiseptic, eliminating the rotting of food in the digestive tract.
