WHY IT’S HEALTHY

Mushrooms are packed with fiber, help reduce LDL cholesterol, and lower blood sugars. They’re a great source of Vitamin A providing 97% of your daily needs and are also a great source of plant-based iron. Spinach is a wonderful source of vitamins K, A and folate and a powerful anti-inflammatory. Black sesame seeds are a good source of fiber, omega 3 fatty acids and B vitamins. Garlic has high levels of vitamins and minerals including vitamin C and B-6 and minerals such as selenium, calcium, copper, and iron. Garlic also contains strong antibiotic, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties.
