Peak Performance: Superfoods from the Andes Mountains Power Everyday Active Lifestyles and Elite Sports Nutrition with Plant-based Protein Supplements, Now Available on Amazon from AWÁ Nutrition

SANTA MONICA, CA (March 21, 2022) — AWÁ Nutrition plant-based smoothie mixes and nutritional supplements featuring ancestral superfoods sourced from the highlands of the Andes Mountains in South America are now available on Amazon.com. Until now, the sustainably sourced products were only available direct-to-consumer on the company’s website, www.awanutrition.com.

AWÁ Nutrition’s soy-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan and non-GMO plant-based smoothie mixes combine ancient wisdom and modern nutrition in uniquely formulated blends – with no added sugar – that meet rising consumer demand for plant-based protein, nutrient-dense superfoods, ancient ingredients and convenient solutions for meals, snacks, post-workout recovery and energy boost in all natural, tasty tropical flavors from Ecuador.

Protein-packed, ancient Andean superfoods including the protein-rich Andean lupine, quinoa and peas in a proprietary blend provide a complete amino acid profile to AWÁ Nutrition’s smoothie mixes and shot packs. The superfoods are mixed with concentrates of tropical super fruits, like naranjilla, golden berry, Wild Andean blueberry, passion fruit, bananas, cacao and coconut, to create delicious products high in antioxidants, minerals and essential micro-nutrients.

Ancient Wisdom Powers Today’s Superfoods
“Ancient Wisdom” is one of the key macro forces driving 2022 food trends in the U.S., according to New Hope Network’s NEXT Data & Insights. “As consumers retreat from the common food system’s over-processed, less-than-satisfying products, innovators look to Ancient Wisdom for guidance…resurrecting the wisdom of ancient cultures.”

“The superfood ingredients AWÁ Nutrition sources from small-scale producers in the Andes have been powering people for over 5,000 years,” said AWÁ Nutrition Founder and CEO Felipe Guevara. “Foods such as the Andean Lupine (also known as chocho, tarwi and pearl lupin), which has the highest amount of protein of any legume, and quinoa have long provided highly digestible, plant-based protein sources for people. Combined with the benefits of super fruits grown in Ecuador and the Andes region, our products match ancestral tradition with today’s consumer’s desire for authentic, plant-based nutrition, fitness and a balanced diet,” he said.

“Further, we specially developed our smoothie blends to appeal to and serve the nutritional needs of everyday active lifestyles, as well as those of elite athletes striving for peak performance,” Guevara added.
