Seeds (pumpkin, flax,glinseed, hemp & soya bean)...

Ive found sachet's in my local supermarket,
extremely good omega 6, protein, zinc, iron & magnezium content, yet the saturated fat levels are also shocking!, almost enough to make me not want to eat them...
I bought 1 weeks worth of them, quite expensive but worth it, deliscious...

Pumpkin seed sachet's contain (per 55g bag @ £1.38):

312kcal

protein 19.9g
carbohydrates 1.2g
(of which sugars) 1.1g

fat 25.6g
(of which saturated) 4.6g
(polyunsaturates) 12.0g
(omega6) 12.0g

fibre 4.0g
sodium 0.2g

magnezium 308mg (103%RDA)
zinc 4.4mg (29%RDA)
iron 2.3mg (16%RDA)

***********
The other sachet's i bought contain a mixture of pumpkin seeds along with many other seed types including hemp!, high in proteins and omega acids, etc....extremely good contents, yet the saturated fat levels are high too....

i add a tbsp of hemp seeds, flax seeds, wheat germ, & quinoah to my morning protein shake every day. although it does add some calories and fat, i think it's worth it. as long as you keep the other ingredients light the calories wont be bad, i really like these additions too, i believe they make protein shakes extremely nutritious.
