Artgerechte Food Facts
Almond drink: 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.
Cocoa contains a variety of neurotransmitters that promote the release of mood-enhancing substances in the body. Tryptophan, for example, stimulates the production of the happiness hormone serotonin. In addition, the very high magnesium content has a relaxing and anticonvulsant effect on muscles and nerves. Cocoa also contains antioxidants, calcium, iron and unsaturated fatty acids.
Cardamom has a positive effect on the digestive tract, for example for stomach pain, bloating and indigestion.
Fennel is also often used in herbal medicine, e.g. for digestive complaints.
Pepperkörner have an antibacterial and immune-boosting effect, stimulate the metabolism and support the digestive tract. The effect of other herbs is also enhanced, as pepper promotes the absorption of the active ingredients in the intestine.
Cloves contain the ätheric oil eugenol, which is said to act like a natural antibiotic – anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal.
Cinnamon not only provides taste and well-being, but also has a positive effect on blood sugar levels and metabolism.
Ginger is rich in secondary plant substances that actively support our immune system. It has an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, metabolism-regulating and anti-diabetic effect. It is particularly good for treating digestive problems, pain and colds. In addition, its intense flavor makes you feel full sooner.
Black tea: Tannins/tannins in black tea lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels and have an antibacterial effect.
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, honey is better the darker it is, because then the pinostrobin content is higher. Honey should not be heated for too long, as otherwise the beneficial substances are quickly destroyed. Therefore, only add the honey at the end and only heat briefly.
