HEALTH BENEFITS

Made from soya milk, tofu has a number of health benefits. It is a valuable source of protein, iron, potassium and calcium. It can also help ease menopause symptoms, support heart & bone health, and manage cholesterol & blood sugar levels. Research has shown that vitamin C helps the body increase its absorption of non-haem iron from plant-based foods like tofu. Therefore, adding vitamin C-rich BOOSTING AMBERS powder to your tofu makes perfect sense. The flavours combine beautifully and the powder gives a golden yellow colouring to the tofu. Taken daily, BOOSTING AMBERS organic health supplement is a natural immunity booster.
