Benefits

Verified by testing, based on the average amount in 1 serving (43g)

Nutrient Content Claims

The FDA standard for what producers can say about what’s in food. 10% of the daily value (DV) is considered the minimum “significant amount” of a nutrient.

"Good" and "Rich" claims are calculated per RACC (45g) - the FDA's regulatory reference amount - not per the labeled serving size (43g).

Rich4Rich Source

Contains at least 20% of the daily value of these nutrients.

Magnesium22% DV

Magnesium assists enzymes in crucial roles such as protein synthesis, muscular and neuronal function, and regulating blood sugar and blood pressure.

Phosphorus21% DV

Phosphorus is required for DNA synthesis, cell metabolism, and in supporting strong bone formation.

Manganese40% DV

Manganese assists proteins in crucial roles such as protecting cells from damage due to oxidative stress, assists in converting food into energy, and allowing blood to clot.

Copper21% DV

Copper assists in converting food into energy, managing iron levels in the body, and protecting cells from damage due to oxidative stress.

Good5Good Source

Contains at least 10% of the daily value of these nutrients.

Iron18% DV

Iron is crucial for carrying oxygen in red blood cells around the body and assists in converting food into energy.

Zinc12% DV

Zinc assists proteins in crucial roles such as wound healing, immune function, and DNA synthesis.

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid)14% DV

Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) assists in converting food into energy and helps cells build and break down fat.

Vitamin B9 (Folate, DFE)11% DV

Vitamin B9 (folate) assists in chemical reactions required for protein synthesis and cell division.

Dietary Fiber16% DV

Dietary fiber is a type of carbohydrate that is not broken down by the body. It aids in healthy digestion, reduces harmful cholesterol levels in the blood, and is critical in influencing the diversity and composition of the gut microbiome.
