Minimally Processed Ingredients

Nutrients are maintained in their food matrix and the proteins are intact with minimal ingredient processing. We do not use protein isolates, like soy protein isolate or pea protein isolate, or protein fractionations like casein or whey.

Is this product nutritionally balanced?

Yes. Else™ Toddler contains all macronutrients and >20 essential vitamins and minerals: plant-based protein originating from two plants: buckwheat and almonds (almond butter and almond protein powder) supplemented with some free amino acids, gluten-free carbohydrates, as well as a fat from almond butter and rapeseed oil. It is fortified with over 20 essential vitamins and minerals to help provide an appropriate intake of micronutrients in the diet.

What are the ingredients in Else™ Toddler?

Else™ Toddler contains buckwheat flour, almond butter, almond protein powder, tapioca maltodextrin, rapeseed oil, and with vitamins and minerals. The toddler nutritional supplement drink is slightly sweetened with less than 2% of cane sugar. Buckwheat is a gluten-free plant with grain-like seeds and a source of protein with full amino acid profile (all essential amino acids) and gluten-free carbohydrates. Buckwheat is also a good source of fibers and minerals such as manganese, copper, magnesium, and phosphorus. Almond butter is a whole food alternative to protein sources, such as cow’s milk whey or casein and processed soy or pea protein. It provides good amounts of vitamins and minerals like biotin, vitamin E, copper, manganese, vitamin B2 (riboflavin), phosphorus, and magnesium. Almonds are a great source of unsaturated fat as well as fiber that may favorably alter the intestinal microbiome. Tapioca maltodextrin, derived from the root vegetable cassava (think: yuca), is an easy-to-digest form of carbohydrate and is free of taste, smell, and flavor, made using water and all-natural enzymes.

Is it certified organic?

Else™ Toddler is not certified organic however some of its ingredients are organic like organic buckwheat flour (the first and most abundant), and organic rapeseed oil. However, to create balanced nutrition, it is fortified with ingredients such as almond protein powder, amino acids, vitamins and minerals in total of above 5% of formulation while the Canada Certified Organic products must contain >95% organic ingredients. Thus, it is not certified organic.

Can your Else™ Toddler be used as sole source of nutrition?

Please consult with your child’s healthcare provider with regards to using it as a sole source of nutrition as this may only be under medical supervision.

Is Else™ Toddler suitable for infants?

The best nutrition for infants is breast milk (exclusively up to 6 months and with complementary feeding from 6 months) or infant formula when exclusive breast milk is not available.  Else™ Toddler was designed to supplement the diet of toddlers ages 1-3 years, and we encourage you to consult with your child’s healthcare provider regarding use of the product outside the target age range.

What is the source of protein in Else™ Toddler?

The protein in Else™ Toddler is derived from the combination of almonds (almond butter and almond protein powder), buckwheat, and with the addition of free amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and lysine to the best plant-based protein we could provide.

It is more than nutrition. It’s truly something else.
