DELIGHTFUL “DID-YOU-KNOWS”
Tuna – Healthy Fats Which Love You Back!
* An exceptional source of polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), which are essential for brain development, cognitive function, and cardiovascular health. These fats reduce inflammation, support healthy cholesterol levels, and may lower the risk of heart disease.
* It is a high-quality protein, providing all essential amino acids needed for muscle maintenance, tissue repair, and immune function.
* Rich in fat-soluble vitamins, particularly Vitamin D, which supports bone health and immune regulation, and Vitamin A, important for vision and cellular growth.
* Contains trace amounts of calcium which supports bone health, and iodine, which supports thyroid function and metabolism.
Cucumber – Hydration Hero
* About 95% water making it excellent for hydration.
* Provides trace amounts of Vitamin K, Vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, and antioxidants such as beta-carotene and flavonoids.
* Naturally low in calories but filling due to high water content, which makes it useful for weight maintenance, whilst adding a touch of freshness.
