What are the contents of Feméa, then?

Our ingredients and likewise suppliers have been chosen with great care and always maintain the highest possible quality. Hemoglobin powder is the super-ingredient that makes Feméa so rich in heme-iron - but what is it really and what is it used for?

Hemoglobin powder

Hemoglobin powder is produced through a process called micro-granulation. This involves separating the red blood cells from cattle and then spray-drying them with tempered air, which includes a heating process that helps to eliminate any potential bacteria. The result is a fine-grained powder with a long shelf life and high iron content. Hemoglobin powder is already used in a number of food products on the market today and is primarily found in products such as blood pudding, blood sausage, and thin flatbread but can also appear in other charcuteries.

Our hemoglobin powder is beef-based and comes from a well-certified producer in the Netherlands that meets the highest possible industry standards. In an ideal world, we would have preferred a Swedish organic raw material, but since it does not exist, we have found the absolute best available alternative.

Organic gluten-free oats

The other base ingredient in Feméa is an oat flour developed from organically grown oats. Oats are already rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, and oat flour is particularly suitable in our heme-iron powders as it blends well and does not impart any disruptive flavor to other foods. Both we and our supplier have analyzed the gluten content in our oat flour to ensure that our products deliver on their promises and are gluten-free.

Feméa Neutral

In addition to the base ingredients of hemoglobin powder and oat flour, Feméa Neutral contains only blueberry and lingonberry powder from berries handpicked from the forests of Northern Sweden. The berries have been carefully dried and ground to preserve all their nutrients. Both blueberries and lingonberries are fantastic resources with many positive properties. These exclusive Swedish berries are packed with vitamins and rich in various types of antioxidants such as anthocyanins and resveratrol, which are linked to a protective effect against cardiovascular disease. The berries are also attributed anti-inflammatory properties and prebiotic effects, meaning a positive impact on the gut flora. We think that's cool!

Feméa Kakao

To achieve a well-balanced chocolate flavor, in addition to the base ingredients, Feméa Cocoa contains a carefully balanced combination of cocoa, date powder (which has been dried and ground in its entirety after harvest to preserve all its nutrients), and coconut sugar, all from organic farms. Besides contributing a fine taste, both cocoa and dates contain unusually high levels of antioxidants such as flavonoids, which also have anti-inflammatory properties and cardiovascular benefits. For a balanced sweetness, we have rounded off with unrefined organic coconut sugar, a natural product derived from the nectar of the coconut palm. The result - a heme-iron powder with chocolate flavors!
