It is a good source of protein, providing 6.0g per 100g (around 24% of its energy), approximately 12% of the UK Reference Nutrient Intake of 50g per day. Under UK/EU nutrition-claim rules, that meets the "high protein" threshold of at least 20% of energy from protein. Protein plays a key role in muscle repair, immune function, and keeping you feeling full for longer.
With just 1.7g of fat per 100g, it meets the UK/EU "low fat" nutrition-claim threshold. This makes it a lighter option for those monitoring their fat intake as part of a heart-healthy or weight-management diet.

Each 100g serving provides 5.1g of dietary fibre per 100g, meeting the UK/EU "high fibre" nutrition-claim threshold. The UK government recommends 30g of fibre per day for adults. Adequate fibre intake supports healthy digestion, helps regulate blood sugar levels, and may reduce the risk of heart disease and bowel cancer.
