A typical 100 g serving provides 20–25 g of complete protein, making it an excellent choice for supporting muscle maintenance, tissue repair and overall health.

- Provides all 9 essential amino acids.
- Rich in omega-3 fatty acids that support heart and brain health.
- One of the few natural food sources of vitamin D.
- Supports muscle growth, recovery and satiety.
