Why it’s good for hair health:
Cottage cheese: Provides high-quality complete protein. Hair is predominantly made of keratin, a protein, and inadequate protein intake can contribute to hair loss.
Chia seeds: Provide plant protein, iron, zinc and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential omega-3 fatty acid.
Raspberries: Provide vitamin C, which helps increase the absorption of iron from plant foods.
Cacao: Provides minerals including iron and magnesium, while adding rich chocolate flavor without much added sugar.
Beauty f(x) Cacao Raspberry: Adds 10 g of protein, including marine collagen peptides, alongside its functional beauty ingredients.
