Have A Heart is a functional food containing herbal extracts, blended into tahini (sesame seed butter), and bottled in a glass jar like peanut butter. The name of the product comes from the expression, “have a heart,” which means to have compassion. Have A Heart is compassionate in that its main ingredient – Eleuthero extract – is one of nature’s strongest adaptogens, and adaptogens help the body adapt to stress. The other ingredients in Have A Heart are arjuna, garlic, valerian and vanilla extract.
Why do we use tahini as a base in which to mix the herbs? First, sesame oil (the oil in tahini) is known as one of the best “carriers” to transport nutrients in the body. Second, tahini is nutritious in and of itself: it contains protein, calcium,
Omega 6, and magnesium. Finally, tahini tastes good.
