Plus, it’s sweetened with stevia, so it’s 100 percent sugar-free.
Mac Daddy
Macaroni and cheese is the ultimate comfort food. Daiya Cheezy Mac gives you all the yummy goodness-but without the dairy or gluten in traditional mac and cheese. Choose from three varieties: Deluxe Cheddar Style, perfect for the dairy-free mac-and-cheese purist, with a creamy cheddar-style sauce and whole-grain noodles; Deluxe Alfredo Style, with all the flavor and texture of classic cream-based Alfredo sauce; and Deluxe White Cheddar Style Veggie, bursting with a sharp cheddar flavor. All three are also soy-free.
Zap the Acid
Many foods that contain acid-including tomato sauces, coffee, alcoholic beverages, soups, stews, and salad dressings-contribute to acid reflux/GERD and even tooth enamel erosion. GuRoux Brands Acid Zap neutralizes acidity when combined with beverages and foods. Just add 1/4 teaspoon per 8 oz. of liquid or food. It’s fast acting, gluten-free, and proven to reduce acidity.
Hemp, Hemp Hooray!

Choose from 160 mg, 240 mg, or 315 mg, and follow directions for dosage.
