1. They provide “complete” (all the essential amino acids) protein that is gentler on your bones, your digestive system, and the environment.
2. They provide all the essential fatty acids including a big hit of those precious omega 3 fats.
3. They provide a comprehensive package of minerals including lots of calcium, magnesium, zinc, and iron.
4. They are rich in vitamins including vitamin E, B-vitamins, and even vitamin D.
