Why This Works for Heart Health
Each ingredient is chosen for its specific cholesterol-lowering and heart-protective benefits.
-
Almond Butter A rich source of healthy monounsaturated fats, which are crucial for lowering LDL ("bad") cholesterol.
-
Berries & Spinach Packed with soluble fiber and antioxidants. Soluble fiber binds to cholesterol in the digestive system and removes it from your body.
-
Greek Yogurt Adds a boost of protein for satiety (feeling full) and contains probiotics for gut health.
