Kingsmill 50/50 Vitamin Boost has 7 vitamins and Minerals in every slice. It’s a source of vitamin D, thiamin, niacin, B6, folic acid, calcium and iron.
Iron & Vitamin B6 supports your immune system, Vitamin B1 & Niacin for energy release & Vitamin D & Calcium for healthy bones and teeth.
Iron helps to to make red blood cells which carry oxygen around the body and it helps support our immune system too. Good sources include meat, beans, nuts, bread, fortified breakfast cereals and most dark-green leafy vegetables.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is important for keeping our immune system running normally. Sources of Vitamin B6 include poultry, fish, potatoes, chickpeas and bananas.
Thiamin (aka Vitamin B1) and Niacin (aka vitamin B3), work together to turn the food we eat into the energy we need. Meat, eggs, fortified breakfast cereals and bread are all good sources.
Vitamin D, also known as the “sunshine vitamin” is important for keeping our teeth and bones healthy as it helps our bodies to use the calcium from our diets. It’s best to get vitamin D direct from sunlight, but we know our UK weather means the sun is only strong enough for about half of the year, so taking supplements and eating things like our Vitamin Boost bread is a great way to get that important vitamin in your diet.
