9/10

claims fully supported

“Antioxidant Boost”true

Cranberries and goji berries are rich in proanthocyanidins, anthocyanins, and zeaxanthin; sesame seeds contribute sesamin and sesamolin; chia and flaxseeds contribute polyphenols. Ingredient dossiers confirm antioxidant properties; no ORAC or quantified antioxidant capacity value is provided.

“20g Protein Per Pack”true

Pack size is 100g; nutrition panel shows 22.05g protein per 100g, which exceeds the claimed 20g. The claim is conservative and directionally accurate.

“Plant-Based”true

All seven ingredients — sunflower, chia, flax, sesame, pumpkin seeds, cranberries, goji berries — are entirely plant-derived. Vegetarian status confirmed in extra information.

“100% Natural Ingredients”true

Ingredient list contains only whole seeds and dried berries with no synthetic additives, colours, flavourings, or preservatives visible in any source.

“Roasted”unverified

No confirmation of roasting process in nutrition data, ingredient dossiers, or extra information beyond the marketed claim itself. Cannot be independently verified from the available data.

“No Sodium Added”true

Nutrition panel confirms addedSugar is 0g and no sodium-bearing additive (MSG, sodium benzoate, etc.) appears in the ingredient list. The 204mg sodium per 100g is from naturally occurring sodium in seeds and berries.

“No Refined Oil”true

No oil of any kind appears in the ingredient list; fat content is entirely from intact whole seeds.

“No Artificial Flavours”true

No flavouring agents, artificial or otherwise, are present in the ingredient list.

“No Preservatives”true

No preservatives appear in the ingredient list. However, goji berry dossier notes some commercially processed goji products have contained undeclared sulfites; this product does not declare any.

“Antioxidant rush inside!”true

Product tagline consistent with the ingredient profile (cranberry PACs, goji zeaxanthin, sesame lignans, seed polyphenols), but no quantified antioxidant measure is provided.

03 — The fuller picture

Read the whole thing if a one-line verdict isn’t enough.

What’s in favour, and what’s working against it

In favour

Seven whole-food ingredients, zero additives or preservatives
High dietary fibre — 17.7g per 100g supports gut health
Strong omega-3 ALA source from flax and chia seeds
Zero added sugar confirmed by nutrition panel
No refined oil, no artificial flavours or colours
FSSAI licensed; vegetarian-certified product of India

Working against

Flaxseeds contain cyanogenic glycosides — caution for children and pregnancy
Sesame seeds are a globally recognised major allergen (FASTER Act 2023)
Cranberry and goji berry may potentiate warfarin — risk for anticoagulant users
Moderate natural sodium at 204mg/100g despite no added salt
Trans fat present at 0.04g/100g (trace, likely from natural seed sources)

Who should approach with care

Infants — Flaxseeds pose cyanogenic glycoside toxicity risk at very low doses for infants due to low body weight per EFSA ARfD framework; chia seeds present a choking/obstruction risk; pumpkin seeds are a choking hazard under 12 months.

Children — EFSA found children and adolescents may exceed the Acute Reference Dose for cyanogenic glycosides from flaxseeds at the 95th percentile of dietary exposure; portions should be kept small.

Pregnancy — Flaxseed lignans act as phytoestrogens and cyanogenic glycoside risk is present at higher intakes; goji berry lacks adequate high-dose human safety data during pregnancy — conventional serving amounts are acceptable but moderation is advised.

Thyroid Disease — Flaxseed phytoestrogens (lignans) may interfere with thyroid hormone synthesis and metabolism; individuals on thyroid medication should limit intake and consult a physician.

Kidney Disease — Flaxseeds (oxalates, phytic acid), cranberries (urinary oxalate load), sesame and pumpkin seeds (high phosphorus/potassium/magnesium) collectively pose mineral management challenges for individuals with chronic kidney disease or oxalate stone history.

Heart Disease — Cranberry products may potentiate warfarin anticoagulation, and goji berries may similarly increase bleeding risk; individuals on anticoagulant therapy for cardiac conditions should consult their physician before regular use.

Ibs — The very high combined fibre from flaxseeds and chia seeds (17.7g/100g total) can exacerbate bloating, cramping, and altered bowel habits in IBS; cranberry's fructose/sorbitol content may trigger FODMAP-related symptoms.

Diabetes — Goji berries have documented hypoglycaemic properties and may potentiate antidiabetic medications, potentially causing hypoglycaemia; blood glucose monitoring is advisable when consuming regularly.

Sulfite Sensitivity — Some commercially processed goji berry products have been found to contain undeclared sulfite preservatives up to 13.6mg per serving; sulfite-sensitive individuals and asthmatics should exercise strict caution.

Hypertension — Pumpkin seed extracts have demonstrated hypotensive effects and potential additive interactions with antihypertensive agents such as felodipine; individuals on blood pressure medication should seek medical guidance.

Gout — Sesame seeds contain moderate levels of purines; individuals with gout or hyperuricemia should consume this seed mix in moderation as part of an overall low-purine dietary strategy.

Other — Individuals with confirmed sesame seed allergy must strictly avoid this product; sunflower seed allergy (2S albumin/LTP-mediated anaphylaxis) and Cucurbitaceae/seed cross-reactive allergies are also relevant given the multi-seed composition.

The full analysis

Nourish You's Antioxidant Boost Super Seed Mix is typically bought by health-conscious adults looking for a nutrient-dense topping for smoothies, salads, or yogurt. The ingredient list is impressively clean — just seven whole foods with no additives, artificial anything, or refined oils — and the product delivers meaningful amounts of protein (22g/100g), dietary fibre (17.7g/100g), and polyunsaturated fats including omega-3 ALA from flax and chia. The main watch-outs are flaxseed's cyanogenic glycosides (a concern especially for children and during pregnancy at higher servings), sesame allergenicity, and potential drug interactions from cranberry and goji berry in individuals on anticoagulants. The most useful single thing to know: this is one of the cleanest packaged seed mixes available in India, but the 30g serving (~0.5 tablespoon worth of flaxseed) should be kept moderate for children and pregnant consumers.
