Artgerechte Food Facts
Auml;pfel have a high proportion of fiber, flavonoids and polyphenols. The fiber can be used as food by the good intestinal bacteria.
Eggs are a great source of protein and have a firm place in a balanced diet. They are also a good source of healthy omega-3 fatty acids and contain numerous vitamins such as vitamins A, B, D and E. (Please note: animal products are only species-appropriate if the animal has also been kept and fed in a species-appropriate manner.)Honey has been considered a natural remedy for thousands of years and is known for its effect against pathogens such as viruses and bacteria. Manuka honey works best here – its high methylglyoxal content (MGO) makes it unique. In general, the darker the honey, the better, as the pinostrobin content is then higher.
Almonds have a high calorie density, but are very healthy. The carbohydrates in almonds and also in nuts are only released slowly during digestion. Almonds contain a lot of vegetable protein and are rich in polyunsaturated fats. They also have an antioxidant effect.
Lemons have a high content of vitamins, especially vitamin C, trace elements and secondary plant substances. They also activate liver enzymes that can help us detoxify.
Cinnamon is a helper for your immune system. Why? Cinnamon has been used as a spice and remedy since the Middle Ages. Nowadays, we think of cinnamon sticks and cinnamon powder primarily as a spice. However, numerous studies confirm that cinnamon - and more importantly the coumarin it contains - supports health in many ways: Cinnamon is rich in antioxidant flavonoids, which strengthen the immune system and protect heart and nerve cells in particular from inflammation. It has an antibacterial effect and helps the immune system to fight pathogenic bacteria. Cinnamon also has a positive effect on blood sugar levels and metabolism. When integrated daily into meals, cinnamon is true food as medicine.
