Oats have a low glycemic index, which helps regulate blood sugar and provides lasting energy.
They're rich in soluble fibre, including beta-glucan, which helps lower cholesterol and supports cardiovascular health.
Pumpkin contains antioxidants like beta-carotene, which help fight oxidative stress and may reduce the risk of chronic disease.
Chia and flaxseed are an excellent plant-based source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of omega-3 that supports heart health by reducing inflammation, lowering blood pressure, and improving cholesterol levels.
