The Super Seeds were inspired by my habit of always adding seeds to my food, and one day I got tired of opening up different packets of seeds, so I thought, why don’t I just make up a combination of the healthiest seeds to use daily? So I did some research and created a mix of seeds that I found to be the one with the most nutritional benefits, especially for those who eat little or no meat.

……So get sprinkling!….. Here is what you get:

—HEMP — For tones muscles! ?

Studies have also shown that the protein quality of hemp seeds is better than most other plant protein sources.

—CHIA — Stay hydrated and Don’t be fooled by their size! ?

These tiny seeds are one of the most nutritious foods on the planet! They’re loaded with fibre, protein, anti-oxidants, omega-3 fatty acids and various micronutrients.
Because of its high soluble fibre content, chia seeds can absorb up to 10–12 times their weight in water, becoming gel-like and expanding in your stomach.
This helps increase fullness, slow absorption of your food and helps you eat fewer calories.
Fibre also feeds the friendly bacteria in your intestine, which is important — keeping your gut flora well fed is absolutely crucial for health.
Chia seeds are 40% fibre by weight, making them one of the best sources of fiber in the world.

—SUNFLOWER — for a Happy and healthy heart! ❤️

Sunflower seeds contain two nutrients that promote cardiovascular health — vitamin E and folate. They are great to keep your heart healthy! These underrated superseeds are an excellent source of B vitamins, including folate (which helps prevent birth defects), and vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from damage, helps maintain healthy hair and skin, and may work to prevent cancer.

Sunflower seeds contain a good amount of protein, monounsaturated fats and vitamin E. One ounce (28 grams) of sunflower seeds contains (44):

Calories: 164
Fiber: 2.4 grams
