-Increased satiety: thanks to its high viscosity, it helps control appetite and reduces calorie intake.
-Ferments in the colon, improving intestinal transit.
-Cardiovascular health: helps reduce cholesterol levels and supports heart health.

In addition to its nutritional properties, this flour also stands out for its functionality, contributing viscosity, a pleasant texture, and a neutral taste.
