Boundless, a brand that's known for gut happy snacking, makes activated nut and seed mixes that are high in fibre and protein, free from gluten and fueled by only 100% natural ingredients. The Nuts and Seeds Boosts from the brand are offered in several flavorful, nutrient-dense varieties like Orange & Maple Syrup; Smoky BBQ; Sweet Chilli; and Salt & Chilli Pepper.
A well-balanced blend of pecans, almonds, cashews and walnuts, plus pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds are some of the ingredients that are the basis of these gut-friendly snacks.
With more consumers educating themselves on the benefits of gut health and the role that it plays beyond their digestive health, they are investing in functional snacks that offer much more than just flavor.
