1. Plant-Based Eating
According to research in a recent study from Harvard, consuming a healthful plant-based diet is linked to a substantially lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Research suggests this is due to high-quality plant foods (eg. whole grains, nuts & legumes) being high in fibre, antioxidants, unsaturated fatty acids, and micronutrients (such as magnesium).
Whether consumers choose to be a vegan, vegetarian or flexitarian, it is increasingly understood that eating a plant-based diet will make for a much healthier, more sustainable and environmentally friendly lifestyle.
Organic Nuts & Seeds are favourite wholefood snacks, as well as common additions to savoury dishes & desserts.
