Coconut BLISSSSSSS!!!
Luna and Larry's Coconut Bliss Ice-cream is a delicious and healthy choice when you want something satisfying for dessert. It is made from coconut milk, sweetened with agave nectar, and free of dairy, soy and gluten. As well, Coconut Bliss is certified organic, 100% vegan, low glycemic and made from fair trade ingredients. Coconut milks natural richness creates the creamy texture that people love, however, the fat in coconut milk is very different from other fats. High in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) identical to those in human breast milk, coconut milk has similar germ fighting and heart-protective properties. MCTs are unique in that they are a form of saturated fat yet have several health benefits. The body utilizes them differently from fat that does not contain MCTs. Their digestion is near-effortless and, unlike fat that does not contain MCTs ( which gets stored in the cells), MCTs are utilized by the liver. Within moments of MCTs being consumed, they are converted by the liver to energy. Coconut oil is a perfect ingredient to include in energy gel or ball recipes due to these properties. It provides easily digestible energy, ideal during activity such as cycling or hiking. ('Whole Foods To Thrive' by Brendan Brazier)
Agave nectar comes from the blue agave cactus. Its nectar is fermented to make tequila. Unfermented agave is an excellent source of easily digestible, slow-release carbohydrate and trace minerals. Agave nectar is good choice for a healthy sweetener.
The different flavors are naked coconut, dark chocolate, cappuccino and pineapple-coconut...so yummy!!
