Soybeans (Glycine max) are a versatile and highly nutritious legume native to East Asia. They are a significant source of protein and are often considered a complete protein because they contain all nine essential amino acids. Rich in healthy fats, particularly polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, soybeans also provide essential nutrients such as fiber, vitamins (including vitamin K, folate, and several B vitamins), and minerals (including iron, calcium, and magnesium). Due to their high protein content, soybeans are commonly used in various food products, including tofu, tempeh, soy milk, and edamame. Additionally, they play a crucial role in vegetarian and vegan diets as a plant-based protein alternative. Beyond their culinary uses, soybeans are also important in agriculture, as they help improve soil health through nitrogen fixation. The oil extracted from soybeans is widely used in cooking and food processing, making them an integral part of both diets and economies worldwide.
99% purity: This means that the seeds are pure and unadulterated, meaning they contain a very high percentage of sesame seeds and no other impurities.
Organic: This means that the seeds have been grown using organic farming methods, without the use of harmful chemical fertilisers or pesticides, making them safer and healthier.
Traditional: This may mean that the method of growing these seeds is the traditional method, i.e. the method that was used in the past in agriculture without relying on modern techniques.
Pesticide-free: This feature is very important, as it ensures that the seeds are free from any pesticide residues that may be harmful to health.
