Quince paste, a source of health
Cholesterol-free, so it is a perfect food for people with high cholesterol. Several studies confirm that the soluble fibre in quince paste helps to lower blood cholesterol levels.
Gluten-free, which makes it a healthy breakfast, dessert or snack for people with gluten intolerance.
Fat-free, since it is made from fruit and sugar. Neither of these ingredients contains fat. Fruit provides natural fibre and minerals, whilst sugar gives us energy to survive the day and food for our brain.
It is rich in Natural Fibre, so it helps our body work properly. Quince provides much more fibre than other fruit, such as peaches, apricots or plums.
It combats Intestinal Disorders. As Quince Paste contains a large amount of fibre, it is very effective for helping to cure both diarrhoea and constipation.
