Tip of the day: seeds are an excellent source of protein and fibre but also of vitamins and minerals. Sesame seeds are a great source of calcium and magnesium. Sunflower seeds are rich in vitamin E and selenium. Pumpkin seeds are rich in manganese and phosphorus. Chia seeds are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids. The benefits are numerous. Remember to add them daily, in small quantities, in your soups, on your salads or spreads, or just simply to nibble on them as a little snack.
