Chestnuts have, among other things, the following advantages:

• They provide energy.
• They nourish the intestinal flora, which enhances the immune system.
• They affect the connective tissue and make the skin firmer.
• They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and trace elements.
• They strengthen bones and teeth.

The chestnut flour and flakes we produce have various uses in the kitchen. Whether as muesli, in bread, cookies, soups, or sauces, they unfold the wide range of their positive properties.

More specifically, chestnuts are very healthy because:

• They contain about as much vitamin C as oranges.
• Chestnuts contain all B-complex vitamins and vitamin E.
• They have much fewer calories and fat than other nuts.
• They have the same content of valuable protein and are also rich in monounsaturated and unsaturated fats.
• Chestnuts also contain many carbohydrate complexes as well as dietary fibers.
• They ensure the slow increase of sugar levels after a meal.
• When we eat chestnuts, we feel full for a long time without the sensation of bloating.
• Dietary fibers support digestion. Thus, chestnuts contribute to a healthy intestinal flora.
