Why are they Good Mood Food?
The addition of whole grains from the muesli and seeds lowers the GI of the chocolate from very high to medium so less of a sugar hit and slump.
Whole seeds add valuable Omega 3 and Micronutrients to otherwise empty calorie chocolate.
Whole grains and seeds are full of insoluble dietary fibre which helps lower the GI and promotes a healthy digestive system.
