HOW BIANCA F1'S MICRONUTRIENT CONTENT CONTRIBUTES TO CONSUMER HEALTH

  • Vitamin A promotes healthy vision, cell division, growth, reproduction, and immunity, as stated by Mayo Clinic.
  • Vitamin K helps make bones healthy and strong, which you can read more about in this report from NCBI.
  • Methionine is an essential amino acid that serves as a building block for proteins and other compounds in the body. According to the University of Rochester Medical Center, methionine is associated with the following benefits (though more research is needed):
    • Protection from ionizing radiation damage
    • Detoxification of harmful substances in the body
    • Prevention of liver damage from acetaminophen poisoning
    • Prevention of fatty deposits in the liver
    • Ease of fatigue
    • Reduced risk of early balding
    • Possible treatment for osteoporosis
  • Folate is a naturally present B vitamin found in Bianca F1. According to the National Institutes of Health, folate has been found to play a role in lowering the risk of several diseases and disorders, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), cancer, heart disease, stroke, dementia, Alzheimer's disease, depression, and more.
  • Dietary Fiber: The CDC’s National Diabetes Statistics Report, 2020 states that 1 in 3 American adults have prediabetes and just over 1 in 10 Americans have diabetes. Bianca F1's fiber content helps promote a feeling of fullness for longer, which may help diabetic and pre-diabetic individuals reduce their carbohydrate intake— stabilizing blood sugar levels and increasing insulin sensitivity as a result.
  • Calcium works to repair and strengthen bones, as well as improve bone mass, [according to Michigan State University](https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/tomatoes_provide_many_health_benefits#:~:text=Strong bones – the vitamin K,tomatoes can reduce cell damage.).
  • Potassium is vital for the proper functioning of bodily cells. Potassium regulates our heartbeats, ensures our muscles and nerves are working as they should, and plays an important role in metabolizing carbohydrates and synthesizing proteins. According to Harvard Health Publishing, high-potassium diets help regulate blood pressure and have been associated with a lower incidence of stroke.
  • Serine is an amino acid that promotes good physical and mental health. A report supplied by the National Library of Medicine states that serine helps promote proper functioning of the brain and central nervous system, and is necessary to produce tryptophan— which is an essential amino acid used to make serotonin.
