What about Salt?
How much do you know about salt? We posed that question in a recent Health IQ Quiz. The answer might surprise you!
The question was Which of the following statements are true.

COCONUT
Coconut oil has experienced a 3X increase in demand over the last 60 days. There is not a shortage of organic coconuts, but rather a bottleneck in receiving enough organic coconut oil supply in North America to meet demand. Nutiva has secured a large number of containers and is expecting to ramp up production. We anticipate that coconut oil will be in tight supply over the next several months. The message of the many healthful benefits of coconut oil is spreading fast.
CHIA
There is currently a worldwide shortage of chia seed and demand has increased 4-5X in the past 180 days. We anticipate that market demand will continue to be red hot. Dr. Oz’s megaphone may be stronger than the many South American countries’ ability to meet this demand.
WEATHER IMPACTS CHIA CROPS
Recent weather has not been favorable to chia. Last year saw a poor crop yield in Paraguay. If that wasn’t enough, this year’s crop in Peru has been flooded by La Niña rains, while Argentinian chia fields are experiencing hot, dry conditions.
Nutiva entered the chia market about 18 months ago and is now the leading supplier of certified organic seed. We are increasing our supply to meet this strong demand. [click to continue…]
