Hot Cocoa Recipe
How These Ingredients Support Your Body: A Nutritional Breakdown
Cacao powder: Rich in antioxidants and magnesium, which support adrenal health and hormone regulation.
Unsweetened almond milk: Low in sugar and rich in vitamin E and magnesium, which support hormonal balance and reproductive health.
Maple syrup: While a sweetener, maple syrup in moderation doesn't directly impact hormones but can be used as a natural sweetener without causing significant spikes in blood sugar levels.
Collagen peptides: Provides amino acids necessary for hormone synthesis, skin health and collagen production.
Cinnamon (optional): Helps regulate blood sugar levels and may improve insulin sensitivity, supporting overall hormone balance.
