Gustus Vitae Launches Superfood Seasonings for Healthier Cooking

Gustus Vitae, a woman-led, family-owned artisan seasoning company based in Los Angeles, has launched a new line of superfood seasonings designed to help people cook healthier meals without changing their routine. The company's Vitality Blends, available now on Amazon Prime and at gustusvitae.com, offer four unique seasonings that can be easily incorporated into everyday cooking.

The Vitality Blends include: - Super Savory (salt-free): An all-rounder blend with zero added salt, featuring chives, dill, basil, tarragon, garlic, onion, turmeric, and bright lemon zest. Ideal for chicken, fish, eggs, roasted vegetables, and soups, as well as vinaigrette whisking. - Vital Defense Garlic & Onion: A blend for garlic lovers, with garlic and onion layered with rosemary, basil, coriander, ginger, orange zest, and a gentle touch of heat. Perfect for steak, chicken, potatoes, and pasta, and can be used to quickly make a bread dip. - Garden Guard: An umami-packed blend that combines earthy shiitake mushroom with a full garden of herbs, including basil, chervil, tarragon, thyme, marjoram, sage, and mint. Suitable for plant-forward cooking, such as grain bowls, roasted vegetables, dips, and soups. Vegan and sesame-free. - Spicy Immune Boost: A warming blend with turmeric, ginger, cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, and a touch of honey, providing a golden color and slow, cozy heat. Ideal for chicken, rice, quinoa, roasted cauliflower, eggs, and soups.

Each blend is crafted by hand in small batches and packed in California using local and imported ingredients. The seasonings are non-GMO, free from MSG, artificial colors or flavors, fillers, anti-caking agents, flow agents, or stabilizers, and are not irradiated or treated with EtO gas. Gustus Vitae emphasizes the importance of using real food in their products, ensuring that every tin contains herbs, spices, garlic, mushrooms, and citrus.

The company has also introduced a gift set, the Vitality Superfood Spices Gift Set of 4, priced at $45.99. This set includes all four Vitality Blends in full-size 8 oz tins, nested in a gold gift box. The set is designed to fit a variety of gift recipients, including those who are meal prepping, new parents, family members cutting back on salt, and home cooks who already own every spice. It is easy to use and does not require refrigeration or assembly.

Gustus Vitae's products are available on Amazon Prime and at gustusvitae.com. Singles are priced at $9.99 each, making them perfect for stocking stuffers. The company has been featured on Good Morning America, TODAY, The View, Fox Business, Live with Kelly and Mark, and was selected for Oprah's Favorite Things in 2024.

The American Heart Association advises flavoring food with herbs and spices instead of salt, as Americans average about 3,400 mg of sodium a day, roughly 50 percent more than the recommended limit of 2,300 mg. The Vitality Blends turn this advice into one step, allowing people to cook what they already cook and reach for the salt shaker less.
