Nutrition / ad for new product
English term or phrase: whole-food
With whole-food nutrition, the focus is not so much on the parts, but how they’re put together. No one ever got very far on a pile of tires, chains and handlebars, but it’s amazing the distance an athlete can travel on a good bicycle. It’s time we assembled the nutrients of our best foods in such a way that it brings out the power found within them.

Entiendo que son alimentos no procesados pero no se si hay un termino especifico en español. Gracias!

alimentos integrales
Explanation:
Whole foods are those that are unprocessed and unrefined, or processed and refined as little as possible before being consumed. They typically do not contain added ingredients, such as sugar, salt, or fat.

Often confused with "organic food" (i.e., organically-grown food), whole foods are not necessarily organic, nor are organic foods necessarily whole, although they do share a number of traits, such as an avoidance of chemically-assisted agricultural techniques. Because of the lack of basic processing, many whole foods have a very short shelf life and are not easily sold outside of farmers' markets.
