Outrageous health association

Even if  the biscuits used whole grains and some insignificant amounts of dietary fiber, where does  the heart health feature in all this?  how


They don’t carry any significant amount of Omega 3  fatty acids or even for  that matter dietary fiber .if  there is significant anything its sugar and sodium.


Don’t go by tags .


Infact if  a label says its healthy its actually otherwise


Marketing is glorifying the half truth.


Even whole grains are now not considered very healthy by some health gurus  as  the modern wheat was genetically modified way back in 1960’s and 70’s .


The protein content was  altered and its no surprise many suffer from gluten and wheat sensitivity .


I am still gonna give it a 3 star rating as its better than most biscuits  like Parle G .


If you really want to add fiber in your life add some fresh fruits and salads.


Infact if  you love  biscuits and cookies with tea .you can make the shift to stuff like peanuts, cashews and pistachios, roasted and spiced with condiments that even spurr the metabolism .


or go with biscuits that use  nuts and seeds and figs  liberally .


I am fond of  one such cookie sold on amazon india - its a cashew figs cookie .


We  also find  some premium cookies that are sweetened with apple  puree  again on the same website, may also be available on ebay and shop clues I guess .


In  a nutshell these biscuits are not bad but we have a whole lot of better healthier stuff around and to link it  to heart health is outrageous.


well walnuts did I tell you is something that’s truly heart healthy.just good to know information.


what you really needs  is good  quality proteins and fats through nuts and seeds .to go with your tea or as a snack.


Happy eating whole foods and not any food like substance pretending to be healthy .
