The fibre in flaxseed, TVP and fruit helps support satiety, gut health, constipation prevention and better blood sugar regulation.
Hemp hearts and flaxseed are an excellent plant-based source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3. Omega-3s support cardiovascular health by reducing inflammation and improving blood pressure and lipid profile.
