Choose HEBA® Your Smarter, Healthier Alternative to Pap, Maize and Wheat!
Goodbye Empty Calories — Hello HEBA®
Tired of GMO grains, refined carbs, and foods stripped of real nutrition? You’re not alone. In South Africa and around the world, traditional staples like maize, wheat, and even so-called “whole grains” have been heavily processed, genetically modified, and engineered — not for your health, but for higher yields and corporate profits.
Take maize (corn), for example — one of the most widely grown GMO crops on the planet. Modified to resist herbicides like glyphosate and to produce its own pesticide (Bt toxin), it’s designed for productivity, not nourishment.
These refined grains are stripped of fibre and key nutrients, leaving you with nothing but empty calories and harmful anti-nutrients that interfere with the absorption of essential vitamins and minerals.
HEBA® Is Different. And Better!
Proudly South African and globally awarded (Most Innovative Ingredient – Dublin, 2016), HEBA® is made from nature’s most nutrient-dense superfoods. It’s a clean, gluten-free, and grain-free alternative to everyday staples — naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, and plant-based goodness.
Unlike fortified products that add nutrients back in, HEBA® keeps them intact from the start — the way nature intended.
✔ Free from GMOs
✔ No artificial additives or preservatives
✔ No anti-nutrients

Whether you're a growing family, a health-conscious professional, or simply seeking a better way to nourish your body, HEBA® is the smarter everyday choice.
Naturally Lose Weight, Improve Wellness & Feel Your Best
In South Africa, where lifestyle-related conditions like obesity, type 2 diabetes, and poor nutrition are on the rise, the real problem isn’t just fast food or sugary treats — it’s also the refined staples we eat every day.
While most people avoid obvious culprits like sweets and soda, everyday essentials like maize meal, wheat flour, and white rice can quietly spike blood sugar and add empty calories, contributing to weight gain, insulin resistance, and chronic fatigue.
At HEBA®, we believe in changing this from the ground up — with low-GI, grain-free, and nutrient-rich alternatives that taste like the real thing but support better health.
✔ Naturally reduce calories
✔ Balance blood sugar
✔ Feel fuller for longer
✔ Maintain energy and tone up
✔ Perfect for weight management, diabetics, keto, banting and low-carb lifestyles
Healthy doesn’t mean giving up your favourite foods — it means upgrading them.

Did you know that the average South African consumes a staggering 100 kg of GMO maize and maize-related products every year?*
That's a challenge, but it's also an extraordinary opportunity!
