A note from our founder

Dearest Lavva fans- 

We wanted to share our latest update on the road to delivering the most delicious and uncompromising cultured food. You told us you always loved our simplicity and creaminess but now the price is right. Thanks to our friends at Whole Foods and other retail grocers, we are appearing on shelf now at $2.99 in New York, New Jersey, and selected CT locations as well as Los Angeles, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Hawaii stores. You can find a new Lavva 4 oz paperboard yogurt cup size. As an additional portion control bonus, Lavva is now one of the lowest in sugar and carbs in the set and NO ADDED SWEETNERS OR TRICKS of any kind. 

We have renamed this product Cultured Superfood, because our cultures are NEVER HEATED and stay alive in the product itself. This is the magic and our most powerful benefit. These precise microbes are nourished by the fermentable plant fibers from the green plantain. It is the byproduct of unique natural pairing that delivers directly to the center of our metabolic universe – the lower intestine.  It turns out that plantain is a perfect fermentable fiber and how and WHY these magical microbes stay alive in this this product. We believe it is not an over statement to say, this is biochemistry of our immune systems. This science is extremely well validated and tied to top academic research.   It is also the scientific rationale for gentle and long-term metabolic health benefit by consuming these good bacteria in a delicious unsweetened fresh food. A lot more is known now about what is going on in the lower intestine and it is very important news to anyone who is ready to embrace one’s own body’s capacity to heal itself.  

We will debate what is the right OR wrong diet until we drop dead (literally) but more and more careful research has validated the role of food sourced from raw ingredients that also fuel the gut microbiome and gut hormone(s). Some refer to this as Blue Zone medicine or longevity medicine, but if these good bacteria are not in the soil the ingredients are grown in, they will not be in our bodies. 

Most foods have had all the bacteria removed (good and bad) and let’s face it we are all eating the same 5 mono cropped ingredients. But this is NOT the way food is grown across the world. We need to put these restorative cultures back by consuming them in delicious and sustainably sourced raw ingredients. 

 Diverse crops that are traditionally farmed, deliver these longevity benefits and support your own bodies ability to prevent and repair disease. This is the Lavva wellness message to you. Ours is an ani-inflammatory medium that delivers real satiety.  We have captured these organic biological benefits in our heirloom supply chain. We believe you care about food being a root cause AND cure of many early metabolic changes.  Fiber is The New Protein and Lavva is made with this unique fiber called resistant starch that keeps our precise cultures alive. 

Yogurt is part of a delicious daily am or PM ritual, alone or with your favorite crunchy topping, berries  – whatever your convenient topper, our precise cultures matched their fermentable plant fibers is your Lavva – now called Cultured Superfood.

Cent’ anni (cheers to 100 years!)

Here’s to nourishment from within,
