www.healthfoodco.com.au is an online shopping site specialising in selling certified organic products and health foods suited to all dietary needs.  As well as supporting local Australian suppliers, we also source unique and innovative brands from around the world.

The Priobos range is completely organic and is suitable for food intolerances, coeliacs and all those who follow a lifestyle through natural values is called “Probios” (meaning: in favour of life). The product satisfies new trends in the gluten-free market that, in addition to the certain absence of gluten, also calls for other guarantees related to the source of raw materials, nutritional quality, ethical quality, and organoleptic quality.

After years of experimentation and gradually improving their recipes, they believe that they can now claim that Probios products exceed the conception of gluten-free products in 4 ways:

Organic

  • No pesticides obtained by synthesis
  • No food additives obtained by synthesis (colouring agents, preservatives, antioxidants, acidity correctors, thickeners, emulsifiers and stabilisers, and flavouring)
  • Natural additives only (guar gum, acacia or apple fibre, lupin flour, and natural flavouring)
  • No hydrogenated fats
  • No GMO's

Nutritional Quality

Free of milk (and derivatives) and free of eggs, suitable for other allergic pathologies as well, and to reduce fat content and calories

  • Free of brewer’s yeast or free of yeast of any kind, suitable for other allergic pathologies as well
  • Free of palm oil (replaced by sunflower oil) reduce the saturated fat content
  • No added fats, reduce the fat content and calories
  • Free of white sugar (with cane sugar or cereal syrup)
  • Salt-free or low salt content, reduce the sodium content
  • With wholemeal flours, increases fibre content
  • With cereal flours other than rice and maize (with millet, buckwheat, quinoa, and amaranth), varies the diet and increase fibre content

Ethical Quality

  • Agricultural source of raw materials indicated on the label, greater transparency for the consumer
  • Search for raw materials of Italian origin, lower CO2 emissions and guarantee of supply chain traceability
  • Search for raw materials sourced from fair, supportive trade sources (cocoa, sugar), guarantees social and economic equity
  • Packaging in recyclable materials, with indications of how the consumer can best effect separate disposal

 

 

Organoleptic Quality

Their gluten-free products are made with a view to offering a real alternative to products that contain gluten, with a very comparable taste and consistency.  This makes them suitable for and attractive to non-celiac sufferers as well, excellent for the whole family. Therefore, in families in which some members are not celiac sufferers, it is not necessary to prepare special meals or snacks for celiac sufferers.  Also, the use of cereals other than wheat that have excellent nutritional qualities, make these products a valid alternative for those that are not gluten intolerant and are not interested in the gluten-free guarantee.
