Choose HEBA® Your Smarter, Healthier Alternative to Pap, Maize and Wheat!
Tsek Empty Calories — Howzit HEBA®
Yoh fam, let’s talk facts. If you’re tired of GMO grains, refined carbs, and food that looks filling but leaves you hungry, feeling bloated and running on empty — you’re not alone.
All over Mzansi (and the world), everyday staples like maize and wheat have been stripped, tweaked, and genetically engineered — not for your health, but for mass production and profit.
Take maize, for example — one of the most heavily modified crops on the planet. It’s been reprogrammed to survive toxic sprays like glyphosate and even produce its own pesticide (yeah, that’s the Bt toxin). It’s not about nourishment. It’s about shelf life and maximum yield.
And that’s the real issue — most of these grains are refined until nothing is left. The fibre? Gone! The vitamins and minerals? Gone!
What’s left? Empty calories and anti-nutrients that block your body from absorbing the good stuff.
So ja, it’s time to cut these empty fillers and eat with purpose.

HEBA® Is Different. And Better!
Proudly South African and globally awarded (ja, we're talking Most Innovative Ingredient – Dublin, 2016), HEBA® isn't just different, its better from the ground up!
Made from real superfoods — like coconut flour, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, and psyllium husk — HEBA® is naturally rich in vitamins, minerals, and plant-based nutrition, not pumped full of synthetic junk.
While wheat and maize based products lose nutrients during processing and try to compensate by adding fake vitamins and minerals back in, HEBA® keeps its natural goodness intact from the start. No lab-made vitamins. No fillers. Just functional food that works with your body, not against it.

✔ No anti-nutrients — nothing that blocks nutrient absorption
✔ No synthetic vitamins or minerals
✔ No artificial additives or preservatives – clean, green and no-nonsense food staple
✔ Free from GMOs — 100% natural, always.

That’s right, the average South African crushes over 100kg of GMO maize and maize-based products every single year.
It’s hectic. But it’s also a massive opportunity to flip the script.
Because when you know better, you can eat better.
And that’s where HEBA® steps in — clean, grain- and gluten-free, and built for real nourishment, not filler.
*FAOSTAT, 1993 - 2013. ‘Food Balance / Food Supply - Crops Primary Equivalent: Maize And Products’. N.p., 2013. Web. 22 Nov. 2015.
The Truth aboute Maize They Don’t Tell You
Maize might be a Mzansi staple, but not all mielie meals are created equal.
Behind the plate is a whole lot of GMO, chemical sprays, and carb overload that can spike your sugar, pack on the weight, and leave you running on empty.

HEBA Yeasty Bread – Fresh Out the Oven, Straight from the Community! 🍞🔥
Yhooo, fam! Ever tried HEBA bread so good it feels like cheating? 😏 Shoutout to the #HEBAsquad for sending in these fire pics—look at that golden crust! 🙌 Here’s how to bake your own loaf of fluffy, gluten-free magic (no cap!).
Ingredients:
150g HEBA (obviously! 🇿🇦✨)
4 tbsp Psyllium husk (for that perfect bounce)
1 tsp salt (just a lil’ vibe)
1 pack dry yeast (let’s get this bread rising!)
1 tbsp honey (don't worry, this activated the yeast, this bread is green list, chomi!)
1 cup lukewarm water (not too hot, not too cold—Goldilocks style)
5 eggs (whipped ’til they’re lighter than your future - if you don't have an electric mixer, separate them and whip the whites till stuff, then whip the yolks and fold in)
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180°C and prep your loaf pan (grease & line it—no sticking allowed).
2. Activate the yeast: Mix lukewarm water, honey, and yeast, then let it sit for 10 mins (watch it get foamy and excited like a kid in a candy store).
3. Beat those eggs until they’re fluffier than a cloud ☁️ (see note above)
4. Fold in HEBA, salt & psyllium husk—gently, like you’re tucking in a baby. 👶🏾
5. Pour in the yeast mix and combine (no overmixing—we want tender bread, not gym gains 💪).
6. Bake for 1 hour or until it’s golden like a sunset over Soweto. 🌅
7. Cool completely before slicing (patience, mfanaka!)—unless you wanna eat warm, crumbly chaos… no judgment. 😂
There you go! HEBA yeast bread—soft, grain-free, and 100% community-approved.
P.S. Tag us in your bread pics—we wanna see who’s really out here baking like a pro!
