Notes

Highlights
  • Soya chunks helps maintain strong bones by being high in minerals, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, and vitamin.
  • Flax seeds are high in immune-boosting and brain-protecting omega 3 fatty acids, which enhance the quality of this simple and healthy meal.
  • The high soluble fibre content of fenugreek leaves slows digestion and glucose absorption, resulting in a slower rate of digestion.
  • Manganese and antioxidants in coconut may aid to improve your immune system and reduce inflammation.
