Artgerechte Food Facts
In addition to many vitamins and minerals, Chicorée is rich in bitter substances and therefore has a beneficial effect on digestion. The bitter substances also appear to have a blood pressure-lowering effect.
Mandarins are rich in vitamin C – the daily requirement of vitamin C can therefore be easily covered. Although it should be noted that they are relatively high in sugar. They are also rich in B vitamins such as vitamin B9 (folic acid). Mandarins also have a similarly high fiber content as apples.Olivesöl are a natural source of fat and therefore an important source and store of energy. PHENOLIO rounds off the dish with its fresh, fruity and tangy flavor. It also has a very high content of polyphenols, which have a health-promoting, anti-inflammatory and beneficial effect.
Honey has been considered a natural remedy for thousands of years and is known for its effect against pathogens such as viruses and bacteria. Manuka honey is considered the best honey in the world – its high methylglyoxal content (MGO) makes it unique. In general, the darker the honey, the higher the pinostrobin content.
Walnuts contain many vitamins and healthy fats. They have an antioxidant effect, help with diabetes and lower cholesterol levels, are healthy for the digestion, heart and brain and increase the ability to concentrate.
