Health Benefits Key

Vitamin B12 helps your body make red blood cells and keeps your nerves healthy. It also plays a key role in turning the food you eat into lasting energy. While it’s often found in animal products, plant-based eaters can get B12 through fortified foods or supplements — which is why we pay attention to this essential vitamin when designing our nutrition balance.  

The family of B vitamins — like B1, B2, B3, B6, and B9 and especially B12 are sometimes called the “energy vitamins.” They help your body turn carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into fuel. B vitamins also support a calm mood, brain clarity, and healthy skin. They’re often found in oats, nuts, and seeds — all core ingredients in our snacks.  

Best known for immune support, vitamin C also helps your body produce collagen for healthy skin, joints, and connective tissue. It’s a strong antioxidant that helps your body absorb iron more effectively and keeps your immune system strong. You’ll find vitamin C naturally in the fruits used in our bars and leathers.  

Vitamin B2 helps the body convert food into energy and supports healthy eyes, skin, and nerves. It’s especially important for growth and tissue repair. You’ll find B2 in ingredients like almonds, oats, and seeds — small foods that do big things for your body.  

Biotin is sometimes called the “beauty vitamin” because it supports healthy hair, skin, and nails. But it also helps turn fats, proteins, and carbs into usable energy. Biotin can be found in nuts, oats, and seeds — some of the same ingredients that make our snacks crunchy and satisfying.  

Folate (or folic acid in supplements) helps the body build and repair DNA and supports healthy cell growth. It’s especially important for heart health and energy metabolism. You’ll find folate naturally in ingredients like leafy greens, citrus, and seeds.  

This vitamin helps your body make neurotransmitters — the chemicals that carry signals in your brain. In other words, it supports mood, focus, and good sleep. It also helps the body create hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in your blood. B6 appears naturally in nuts, seeds, and fruits.  

Vitamin A is essential for eye health and supports the immune system. It also helps your skin stay healthy and bright. You can find it in the form of beta-carotene in orange and yellow fruits like mango, apricot, and pumpkin — which is why we love adding colorful fruit ingredients to our recipes.  

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects your cells from damage and supports skin and immune health. It’s naturally found in nuts and seeds, which means you’re getting a dose of this vitamin every time you enjoy our granola or protein snacks.  

Best known for keeping your bones and teeth strong, calcium also supports muscle movement and nerve communication. Plant-based sources like seeds and oats make it easy to get this mineral without dairy — especially when you eat a variety of whole foods.  

Magnesium helps regulate muscle function, support sleep, and balance mood. It also plays a role in over 300 body processes, including energy production and assistance. Nuts, seeds, and cacao are excellent natural sources, which are widely used in our granolas and chocolate.

Chromium helps your body use insulin more efficiently, which supports steady blood sugar and energy levels. That means fewer crashes and more balanced energy throughout the day — exactly what Sunnies snacks are designed to deliver naturally.  

Copper helps your body form collagen and red blood cells. It also supports brain function and immune health. Small amounts are found naturally in nuts, seeds, and dark chocolate — ingredients we use often for both taste and nutrition.  

Iron carries oxygen throughout your body through your veins— it’s what helps you feel awake and strong. Without enough iron, you can feel tired or weighed-down. We include plant-based sources like oats, seeds, and dried fruits to help support your daily iron needs naturally.  

Zinc is essential for immune strength, wound healing, and clear skin. It also plays a role in taste and smell — meaning it literally helps you enjoy your food. Seeds, nuts, and oats provide this mineral in a gentle, plant-based form.  

At Sunnies, we believe nutrition should be simple: whole ingredients with nutritional value will help your body feel good and do good. When you eat real food, your body recognizes it — and rewards you with steady energy, clear focus, and lasting health.
