Raw organic raspberry energy ball

The energy balls, being raw, concentrate the characteristics of all the ingredients that compose them.

Raspberry has an impressive concentration of minerals for its small size (1300mg per 100g). Mainly, it is magnesium, calcium and iron. Its particularity lies in ellagic acid, an antioxidant which has a preventive action in the appearance of certain cancers and could reduce blood cholesterol levels. Its anthocyanins, responsible for the pink color, are involved in good heart health and slow down cell aging.

Almonds are mainly composed of lipids, in the form of mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids. These "good fats" are protectors of the cardiovascular system and therefore limit the onset of heart disease. Its good balance between omega 3 and 6 helps regulate cholesterol levels, thus protecting the arteries and ultimately the heart. Rich in protein, they are alkalizing. With almonds, you fill up with E vitamin. Antioxidant, they are essential for many mechanisms in our body. In addition, with omega 3, it makes the skin more beautiful, promotes its hydration and limits cellular aging. Finally, they contain many minerals, including a large  part of magnesium.

Cashew nuts are, like almonds, rich in unsaturated fatty acids which are protective of the cardiovascular system, unlike saturated fats. As a good source of minerals, copper and phosphorus are directly involved in the formation of collagen (proteins used in the structure and repair of tissues), hemoglobin and cell membranes. Magnesium helps maintain our energy and actively participates in the production of "happiness molecules" to keep our spirits up on a daily basis. And of course, they are antioxidants.

Dates are rich in fibers, so they regulate intestinal transit and relieve constipation. The potassium they contain ensures communication between neurons and other cells of the body, it is among other things a protector of the nervous system. Dates bring you many vitamins (C, B1, B2) but especially iron! Which is ideal for avoiding anemia and managing your production of red blood cells. Finally, they are the ones that will settle your stomach and quickly reduce the feeling of hunger.

To summarize :

• Rich in vitamins
• Strong antioxidant power

• Relieves digestive disorders

UP'N MIND

Indeed, the story began with the arrival of the little boy of Hafida and Yassine, the managers of the company. After a few health adventures, and 2 years fed exclusively with a tube, the parents had to think about a diet that was both rich and healthy and adapted to the needs of their child in order to avoid the surgical solution that was suggested to them, namely: a gastrostomy and anti-reflux surgery.

Fruit mixed with medjool dates, cashew cream or almond purée, sultanas and superfoods adapted to his health, this is how little by little, in part, they took up the challenge of removing him the catheter without any loss of weight or deterioration of his health. In short, energy balls mixed with fruit or vegetable purées...
