Nourish Your Self

“Increasingly, people are becoming conscious of how they choose to nourish their body. No longer is SAD governing the health of humanity (Standard American Diet), which is laden with sugars, glutinous flours that breed disease and heavily colored or preservative filled foods which tend to de-vitalize the body and promote disease. Instead, SHIVA DIVA FOODS chooses to use the freshest garden ingredients harvested from the local farmers while using alternative, healthy flours, sweeteners and spices. SHIVA DIVA FOODS joins forces with those whose mission is to educate and train healthy-minded consumers to enjoy a pain-free lifestyle regulated by vitalizing dietary habits.” 

Why Gluten-Free

“Gluten foods are the number one cause of mucus in the body. Mucus harbors many airborne and digestive parasites, germs and other auric debris that contribute greatly to the physical discomfort and health issues that many face in their day-to-day lives. Because of the SAD (Standard American Diet), people get accustomed to living with the health challenges that come with a diet lacking nutrition and the nourishing qualities.  SHIVA DIVA FOODS provide easy to digest ingredients that sink into the body chemistry, ultimately nourishing and vitalizing physical health while contributing to mental well-being.” – KaShiva
