  • Gelatine: Gelatin is a protein-rich substance derived from collagen. It can support joint health by aiding in cartilage repair. It facilitates digestion and may improve gut health. Its effect is enhanced when used with bone broth. It is also believed to support skin elasticity.
  • Thick Cream: Cream, a thick ingredient derived from milk's rich fat content. It provides quick, concentrated energy to the body and facilitates the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, K. Its richness can enhance satiety, aiding in portion control. It pairs exceptionally well with fruits, coffee, chocolate, and savory flavors like mushrooms.
  • Milk: Milk is rich in calcium and Vitamin D, supporting bone and teeth health. Its high-quality protein content is crucial for muscle development. B vitamins (B2, B12) contribute to energy metabolism and support nervous system health. It also contains components that strengthen the immune system. It pairs wonderfully with coffee, cereals, fruits, honey, or cocoa. It forms an indispensable base for many sweet and savory recipes.
  • Peach: Peach facilitates digestion and provides satiety due to its fiber content. Its antioxidant content (especially vitamin C) protects cells from free radicals. Potassium content helps regulate blood pressure. It pairs perfectly with balsamic vinegar and mint.

  • Vanilla Extract: Vanilla Extract, thanks to its vanillin content, offers strong antioxidant properties, fighting free radicals and reducing cell damage. Studies suggest it may have anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects, potentially contributing to brain health. Its aroma provides a calming and mood-enhancing effect. It pairs perfectly with dairy products, chocolate, coffee, citrus, and spices (cinnamon, cardamom), adding a rich dimension to desserts.
  • Granulated Sugar: Granulated sugar is one of the body's primary energy sources. It provides rapid glucose for the brain and muscles, meeting immediate energy demands. It can quickly help stabilize energy levels after intense physical activity or when feeling fatigued. Additionally, it may contribute to short-term serotonin release, which can improve mood.

  • Wheat Starch: Wheat starch is a rapidly and easily digestible energy source, ideal for athletes and those needing quick glucose replenishment. Its light texture makes it suitable for individuals with sensitive digestive systems, as it doesn't strain the stomach. It can indirectly contribute to digestive health as resistant starch. Pairing well with fruits, dairy products, chocolate, vanilla, and spices, this starch adds consistency and structure to a wide range of dishes, from desserts to sauces.
  • Water: Water is the foundation of life and indispensable for bodily functions. Its main roles include transporting nutrients and oxygen to cells, eliminating metabolic waste through the kidneys, and regulating body temperature. It is essential for joint health, organ protection, and maintaining cellular functions. Dehydration leads to low energy and kidney issues.
