What are the benefits of this dish?
Although essential for energy production, magnesium is commonly low in people’s diets, especially athletes. This creamy and hydrating smoothie will help to improve magnesium levels and it is also rich in electrolytes, potassium and sodium.
The range of nutrients in raw cacao include exceptionally high levels of magnesium, iron, chromium and powerful antioxidants. Cacao nibs contain no sugar but provide a natural feel-good lift, thanks to the chemicals contained in them, including tryptophan and phenylethylamine (PEA). PEA is a chemical produced in the brain associated with feelings of being in love. It helps to stimulate alertness and focus, producing an overall sense of well-being.
Hemp seeds have a mild, creamy and nutty flavor, are packed with a complete blend of essential amino acids, and have a perfect ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids to help manage inflammation.
