Ingredient score breakdown

Vitamin E

-0.9

One of the richest dietary sources of alpha-tocopherol, a powerful antioxidant that reduces inflammatory cytokines.

Magnesium

-0.5

High magnesium content helps regulate inflammatory pathways and reduces systemic inflammation markers.

Monounsaturated Fats

-0.4

Predominantly oleic acid content supports cardiovascular health and reduces inflammation.

Fiber

+0.1

Prebiotic fiber benefits gut health, though phytic acid may reduce mineral absorption in high amounts.

Why this score
