Eat More Healthy Fats to Help Boost Your Immune System!

Eating healthy fats provides your body with the energy and essential fatty acids it needs to optimise its immune function. Foods rich in essential fatty acids such as Omega-3 DHA & EPA help to promote eye, brain and heart health ❤️ 

Not only are healthy fats essential for the function of the immune system, but they are also needed to absorb fat soluble vitamins A, D, E & K – for a double whammy immune boosting impact! 💪 

Here’s some great vegan sources of healthy fats: 

🥑 Avocados & Avocado Oil 

🥥 Coconuts & Coconut Oil 

🥜 Nuts and Seeds – Our seed-based snacks use a combination of seeds, which are nature’s powerhouse when it comes to healthy fats. As seeds are by Mother Nature’s design intended to pack as much powerful nutrition into one small package as possible, we can benefit from a whopping dose of healthy fats in a convenient and delicious seed snack. 

🧈 Nut & Seed Butter – For a double dose of healthy fats why not spread your favourite nut butter onto our seed-based snacks? Delicious and nutritious! 

💚 Olive Oil 

🧀 Vegan Dairy Alternatives 

🥛 Plantbased Milks 

🥬 Alage – that’s right, the green stuff that grows in water! Microalgae is a great source of vegan friendly Omega-3 DHA & EPA – 2 essential fatty acids which are super important for immune function 

Fat is an essential nutrient, getting it from plantbased sources and avoiding processed food almost guarantees that the fats you’re getting are the healthy kind! Be sure to include a source of healthy fats with each meal and snacks on foods rich in good fats to help meet your daily requirements 💚
