As many of you know, my roles as a nutritionist, a chef and a mum form the foundations of how I cook, and how I develop recipes for our sauces start-up.

In this post, I put on my nutritionist hat, and give you 5 reasons why our plant based, organic mayonaisse, VAYO, is better for you than a standard mayo:

1.VAYO is made with a healthy HIGH-OLEIC sunflower oil:

When I worked on the recipe for our Vegan Mayo (VAYO), I went for a HIGH-OLEIC sunflower oil that not only tastes great, but also delivers on a nutritional profile that I am proud of.
 
Our high-oleic oil contains more than 70% Oleic Fatty Acids (also known as Omega 9 Fatty Acids) and has the same fatty acid profile as olive oil.
 
High oleic oils are proven to lower inflammation in our bodies. This is important, as inflammation plays a major role in the development of cardiovascular risk factors, obesity and diabetes.
 
High oleic oil is also rich in Vitamin E, a natural antioxidant.
 
Most mayos are made with regular sunflower oil, which is high in omega-6 fatty acids which if consumed in excess, are believed to contribute to inflammation in our bodies.


2.VAYO is certified Swiss Organic: 

Made with the best organic ingredients that taste better and typically have higher vitamin, mineral and phytonutrient contents and contain no harmful pesticides.

Vayo is 100% natural and free from preservatives and artificial ingredients

3.VAYO is egg-free and instead uses linseed flour

a natural emulsifier that is rescued from the linseed oil pressing process. Linseed flour is rich in protein, fiber, calcium and iron.

 

4.VAYO gets it zesty kick from a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, which is also a source of Vitamin C

 

5.VAYO is gluten free and plantbased with a capital V ;-)
