- Compliments of Vitamins & MineralsThe micronutrients (Vitamins/Minerals) play an important role by ensuring proper functioning of cells and tissues.Each vitamin and trace mineral play a specific role in the body. For example, Vitamin C acts as antioxidant protecting cells from environmental damage, healing wounds and maintaining connective tissue whereas minerals like sodium, potassium and chloride function as electrolytes that assist in communication between cells necessary for nerve impulses and muscle contraction.Some products mimic the nature by adding artificial vitamins or minerals which have an identical form and function to those found in nature, but they are manufactured synthetically to meet extremely high standards of processed products.
- Rich in FibreMore than 20% of the recommended intake of Dietary Fibre - You have hit Fibre Jackpot ! Be careful that you do not include too many of such Fibre rich foods and also have enough fluids. Sufficient fibre should be taken to help maintain regular Bowel movements, manage Blood Sugar spike and reduce dietary cholesterol absorption but if you go over the top with Fibre, you can get gastrointestinal symptoms like constipation, diarrhoea and abdominal discomfort. Thus, it is important to maintain a balance.
- End Product Matters!!
Products like these are not eaten as is, they are either reconstituted, fried or mixed with other foods prior consumption. In such cases, the nutritional value of the product may change depending on the preparation method. Thus, a low calorie product may carry more calories if fried. Likewise, value of other nutrients may change too.
In such cases, the end product matters. The product may be rated fairly good, but may not be the same when eaten as a meal.
Preparatory methods such as addition of milk and milk products, sprouts and vegetables may enhance the nutrient quotient, while- frying , addition of salt and sugar may degrade the nutritive value.
