What is a wholefood, and what are the benefits?

Why do I need these 26 essential vitamins and minerals? What do they do? What are the benefits?
From immune health to bone mass, vitamins and minerals are really important to keep your body fit and functioning. Deficiencies can lead to problems like fatigue, poor mental health, and increased chances of injury, as advised by UK nutritional guidance. All of our Power Shakes are either a source of, or high in all 26 vitamins and minerals. For example, Vitamin C, which is great for supporting the normal function of the immune system and keeping illness at bay.

Where do all the 26 essential vitamins & minerals come from in the recipe? 
To guarantee you all the nourishment you need to smash the day we fortify our Power Shakes with a vitamin and mineral complex, as well as blending up our favourite whole foods to give you some extra goodness. We know nature does it best, so we use ingredients like banana puree for added Vitamin C, or coconut cream for a bigger hit of Iron.
