HONEY & ALMOND LENTEN COOKIES

This particular combination is quite beneficial to the organism for the following reasons: As it is widely known, honey is great source of carbohydrates. Honey consists of approximately 17% water, 82.5% carbohydrates and 0.5% protein. It has no fat at all! The almond covers this absence of fat with its beneficial omega 3 amino acids and the abundance of other favorable elements that highly benefit the organism. It is widely known that almonds are very nutritious as they deliver a massive amount of nutrients. They are rich in monounsaturated fatty acids which help regulate and maintain body weight. They also contain antioxidants that protect the organism and help fight cancer. What’s more, almonds are a good source of trace minerals such as phosphorus, calcium,
manganese and potassium which help built and maintain strong and healthy bones. When it comes to skin maintenance, almonds have also a lot to offer as the zinc contained helps built up the cell membranes in the body, protecting the cells from oxidative damage and
nourishing the skin. The result is a hydrated and healthier skin with less signs of ageing. All the above mentioned combined with the beneficial honey properties contribute to our health and wellbeing.
