Healthier Dark Chocolate Fruit Clusters
If you are looking for healthier options this Easter, without compromising on fun and flavour, you might want to try these chocolate fruit clusters. Xylitol is one of the few healthy sugar substitutes available, while the fruit and nuts help to make these treats both filling, and a real nutrition hit. I have discussed the health benefits of dark chocolate in many places on my website, but did you know that it is a brain food? Eating dark chocolate increases the flow of blood to the grey matter in the brain. It has been suggested that cocoa flavonoids would benefit conditions associated with reduced blood flow to the brain, including dementia and stroke. A study of the elderly that looked at consumption of flavonols (in dark chocolate, tea and red wine) lead to better cognitive function.
