Cassava root
A pinch of this natural source of maltodextrin is all it takes to help our powders flow
While venison blood is our hero ingredient, it’s naturally rather sticky, which makes it hard to turn into a clean, free-flowing powder. To fix this, we use a tiny amount of a natural processing aid to make the powder easy to handle, otherwise it would clump up.
It amounts to less than a crumb per serving, but makes the mixing process so much easier!
While most companies use corn-based maltodextrin, which is often GMO and glyphosate-heavy, we went to great lengths to avoid that, so ours comes from cassava root, a clean and natural source.
