We like to share why we love Boundless' snacks and why they passed our rigorous selection test.
For a snack to become a true JustBite snack, you already have to have some serious upside. This is because we subject all our snacks to a rigorous selection process before they are allowed to pop into our boxes. We select on composition and ingredients, but especially on taste. Our snack reviews give an insight into this selection process and in this snack review we share our findings on the delicious snacks of Boundless and we explain why they definitely deserve a place in our healthy snack boxes.

Why are Boundless' snacks in the JustBite range?
We said it before, as a healthy snack you already have to be seriously out of your pipe to earn your spot in the JustBite assortment. Each snack is always subjected to our strict selection process where we look at the composition, the ingredients but most importantly the taste!
We are happy to show you in more detail why we have given Boundless' snacks a place in our healthy snack boxes!
Ingredients
The Nuts & Seeds pouches all contain only 100% natural ingredients.
The nuts and seeds are activated so they can give your body and especially your intestines all the good things nature has to offer.
How exactly does this activation work and why is it necessary?
High-fiber foods like nuts and seeds contain phytic acid, a substance naturally present in the plant to basically protect itself from voracious attacks. Phytic acid is a substance that is poorly digested by our bodies. This phytic acid binds to minerals such as iron, magnesium, zinc and calcium, reducing their absorption into our bodies.
By activating their nuts and seeds, Boundless tries to reduce the phytic acid content as much as possible to greatly increase the nutritional value!
They first soak the nuts and seeds in salt water to start the natural germination process. Then they start rinsing the nuts and seeds to remove the phytic acid and leave only the good stuff. Then they are going to bake them and season them deliciously.
Taste
The taste of our snacks is always the most important selection criterion. If a healthy snack does not surprise us with its delicious taste, it will not appear in our assortment. About the taste of the Boundless Nuts & Seeds in the different variations, we can be very brief. They taste fantastic!
With something for everyone in terms of flavors, from sweet to nice and spicy, they treat you to a surprising taste sensation with that crunch that satisfies our cracking hunger!
Composition
All Nuts & Seeds packets are always gluten-free, vegan and have a high fiber and protein content.
Boundless prides itself on their snacks giving you a happy tummy. Not only because their snacks contain activated nuts and seeds, but also because they have a high fiber content.
In fact, dietary fiber is an essential part of a healthy diet.
They ensure that you feel satiated for longer, keep your intestines healthy and help prevent many chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, ... So it's handy if your healthy snack helps you on your way to a sufficient daily fiber intake!
The high protein content also ensures that you can go longer without feeling hungry. This way you get the most out of your healthy break to be able to work out without feeling hungry and with sufficient energy and concentration.
