Artgerechte Food Facts
Avocados are rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, which are good for the heart and can lower cholesterol levels. They also contain many vitamins and minerals, including vitamin K, vitamin E, vitamin C, B vitamins and potassium, which contribute to overall health. Their fiber promotes digestion and ensures a long-lasting feeling of satiety.
Cocoa is rich in antioxidants, especially flavonoids, which have anti-inflammatory properties and can contribute to heart health. It also contains magnesium, which is important for muscle and nerve function, and iron, which contributes to the formation of hemoglobin and red blood cells. Consuming cocoa can also boost mood, as it can stimulate the production of serotonin and endorphins in the brain.
MANUKA Honey is known for its exceptional antibacterial properties, which are caused by the active ingredient methylglyoxal (MGO). It is often used to heal wounds, treat sore throats and support the immune system. Manuka honey also contains many antioxidants and can aid digestion.
