Super Vegan Breakfast

Pea protein is especially suitable for muscle growth as it contains a high BCAA content. BCAA are three branched-chain amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine, which our body does not produce and that we can only acquire through food or supplementation. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25628520

Pumpkin Seed Protein is a new item in the Super Vegan Protein formulations. Naturally derived from pumpkin seeds – one of the foods with the highest protein content and which has an extremely rich mineral profile, especially owing to its magnesium, iron and zinc content – this protein powder brings together the nutritional benefits of all these substances, providing 60% protein content.

It has an enormous nutritional density (gluten-free) and originates from Ethiopia. With a higher protein and mineral content than most cereals (especially iron, copper and selenium), high fibre content and a low glycaemic index, its inclusion (in the form of wholemeal flour) reinforces the benefits of this breakfast mix. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29098639/

The inclusion of this dried fruit powder increases the potassium content of the mixes (which helps, in particular, to maintain normal blood pressure) and avoids the need to add coconut sugar or other sweeteners.

This gluten-free pseudo-cereal is the simple result of grinding whole grain oat flakes. This naturally gluten-free cereal is not only rich in fibre and an excellent source of protein, but also contains many minerals such as magnesium, iron and phosphorus. Functionally, oats are an excellent ally for maintaining satiety and normal blood cholesterol and glucose levels.

It has 90-95% fibre and therefore a high water absorption capacity. It is regularly used as a prebiotic supplement for its contribution to regulating intestinal transit (increasing the faecal bolus). It provides a fibre boost to this porridge. 

It provides an irreplaceable flavour and creaminess to this breakfast, harmonising perfectly with the cocoa and carob. Roasted hazelnuts, like any dry nuts, are rich in unsaturated fats, which, when introduced into the diet as a substitute for saturated fats (found mainly in animal products), help to maintain normal blood cholesterol levels.  

They increase the nutritional density of this breakfast, and are rich in polyphenols (antioxidant compounds) and fibre - an essential combination for controlling total cholesterol and blood glucose levels. - Artigos para consulta:Functional polysaccharides of carob fruit: a reviewhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31583011/ 

These are excellent sources of plant-based proteins, fibre (soluble and insoluble) and omega-3 fatty acids (ALA)..
