January is full of health advice, most of which, I can take or leave, however, this is one I could definitely change my habits for. Chocolate for breakfast is now backed by many nutritionists and Drs, as long as it's the dark stuff (over 70%) as it has multiple benefits.
Raw cacao packs a real punch, helps your kidneys run, is full of anti oxidants and boosts brain power. But even as dark chocolate it helps lower blood sugar levels, boosts your mood and can decrease hunger cravings. What is not to love? You could add a square of 70% or higher to your morning vitamin intake or even better, incorporate chocolate into your breakfasts; add it to porridge or sprinkle over your muesli and if you want to try the nibs, add them to your pancake batter, try this sugar free recipe for chocolate and buckwheat pancakes. Enjoy finding new ways to eat chocolate and boost health at the same time.
