A Protein And Nutritional Powerhouse

- Excellent source of healthy plant-based protein, with 17 grams per serving
- No artificial flavors, cholesterol-free and preservative-free
- Certified organic by CCOF, made with organic tofu, vegan, gluten-free
Alex Caspero, New York Times bestselling author and Registered Dietitian shares, “Most health-conscious shoppers are looking for high protein foods. Tofu is low in saturated fat while rich in protein and calcium. Tofu also has fiber and anti-inflammatory isoflavones, which have been shown to support metabolic health by reducing the risk of high blood pressure, high blood sugar levels and high cholesterol.”
Minh adds, “Tofu is not just for vegetarians! In Asian cultures, it is common to cook meat and tofu together for a hearty, protein-rich meal. We encourage omnivores, flexitarians, vegetarians and even meat lovers to add these yummy and easy tofu entrees to their everyday meals.”
