Description

This vibrant wrap is a celebration of anti-inflammatory ingredients and plant-based nutrition. Turmeric, renowned for its curcumin content, offers potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Cauliflower provides fiber and phytonutrients that support detoxification pathways. Watermelon radishes and red cabbage are rich in anthocyanins, which have been linked to heart health and cognitive function. Avocado adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while plant-based yogurt contributes probiotics for gut health.
