🐄MY FAV FATTY COCOA RECIPE🐄

1 cup of milk of choice

1 serving of cacao powder

1 serving of collagen

1 tbs of coconut oil

1 bloop of maple syrup

✨reminders- you can get saturated fat from avocados, egg yolks, butter… any of these count!

fat has a higher calorie ratio, so be aware of that if you’re interested in consuming more fat. i would recommend replacing calories from carbs with calories from fat in the morning. 🤷🏽‍♀️

... Read moreStabilizing blood sugar is crucial for overall health, affecting energy production, hormone balance, and brain function. Research consistently shows that consuming fats and proteins in the morning can stabilize glucose levels, mitigate brain fog, and support hormonal balance. Incorporating saturated fats such as those found in avocados, egg yolks, and butter into breakfast can enhance nutrient absorption and provide lasting energy. Instead of a carb-heavy morning meal, consider a breakfast rich in healthy fats, which can lead to improved focus and energy throughout the day. This balanced approach not only supports optimal blood sugar levels but also helps in reducing cravings later in the day. Adding coconut oil and cacao powder into your morning routine can boost the flavor while contributing additional health benefits. Cacao is rich in antioxidants, and collagen supports skin, hair, and joint health, making it a perfect addition to your morning drink. Remember to source organic and high-quality ingredients to maximize the health benefits of your meals. This holistic lifestyle choice can lead to better overall well-being and improve your daily vitality!
