Do you find yourself facing an inner battle between a healthy lifestyle and the constant need to snack? Well you’re in luck. What if I told you that you could buy easy go-to snacks packed with pure and nutritious ingredients? These two brands, Go Raw and Hail Merry, will soon capture your attention.

Both of these companies make their snacks completely organic, vegan, gluten free, GMO free, refined sugar free, and raw. You can’t get any better than these standards! If you’re not familiar with raw foods, here’s a little background: Raw foods are alive and contain enzymes to help with digestion. These enzymes are killed off during the cooking process and are important because they have so many benefits. They give you more energy, clearer skin, sharpened memory, and a great degree of healing.

At this point you may be skeptical… how can snacks this healthy taste good? Believe me, they do. Salty or sweet, these snacks are incredibly delicious and will satisfy any craving. No only that, but each company has multiple different kinds of snacks and many flavors of each.

Go Raw was created to “produce delicious organic-raw-vegan products for consumers looking for a healthier, purer lifestyle.” Here are some of their products!…
