Organic Four Seed Mix is a perfect combination.Our Organic Four Seed Mix is a lovely combination of nutritious seeds. Choosing a mix of seeds is a nice way to save money and time by giving you a range of seeds in one handy bag. This mix is great sprinkled on porridge, added to muesli mixes or baked into granola bars.
We chose organic natural sesame seeds for this mix as they have a really impressive range of nutrients and are particularly high in calcium which makes them a popular choice.
Organic pumpkin seeds are high in zinc which can be harder to obtain from a plant based diet.
Organic flaxseed is an essential choice for any nutrient rich seed mix as it is a source of fibre, B-vitamins and protein. Organic flaxseed is actually one of the richest sources of plant based omega 3 fatty acids (also called alpha-linolenic acid – ALA).
Organic sunflower seeds taste extra special and their high levels of vitamin E which and zinc protect the body from oxidative stress.
