★  Chia seeds: One of the richest plant-based sources of omega-3 fatty acids. High in fibre, supporting gut health and satiety.

★  Turmeric: Curcumin supports liver function and helps the body naturally detoxify.

★  Coconut milk: Contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) which are quickly converted to energy.

★  Black pepper: Enhances curcumin absorption, ensuring your body gets maximum benefit from turmeric.
