• fiber for gut health and satiety

• antioxidants and phytonutrients to fight inflammation and disease

• pineapple (contains a group of enzymes called bromeliad that help break down protein) and ginger to support digestion.

Pair with a protein source like Greek yogurt or eggs or a complete meal.
