Stevia

Green Cola

Staying green and eating well is of the utmost importance for all of us at The Amazing Blog, but our downfall is often the drinks we have. It’s so easy to forget about the chemicals and added sugar that exists in your favourite fizzy drink. Thankfully there is a new must-have drink to cure your cravings and be a healthy choice; Green Cola. 

With the delicious and refreshing taste of your favourite cola brand, Green Cola has no sugar, aspartame, phosphoric acid or preservatives. It is sweetened with Stevia, and even the caffeine is naturally sourced from green coffee beans. This drink is the result of years of work on behalf of the company. Beginning in 2012, they worked tirelessly with their developers and nutrition experts to remove the chemicals found in most low-calorie soft drinks. Their one rule was not to sacrifice on taste, and they have achieved it as Green Cola tastes no different from your usual diet cola drink. In fact, in 2015 Green Cola was awarded New Product of The Year in Greece, where it all began, and has become the healthier preferred drink chosen by millions all over the world. 

If this sounds like your new favourite drink, you can purchase a pack of 6 for £3.59 on your next Ocado order here or it's available on Amazon.co.uk.
 

Cavalier Chocolates

As bikini season fast approaches, here at The Amazing Blog we’ve been drinking litres of water, eating copious amounts of fruit, and taking any opportunity to get to the gym (some more than others… shhh!). But as anyone dieting will know, healthy eating is sometimes the last thing on your mind, and sometimes you just want a bit of chocolate! But hold on, don’t run to the shop! We’ve found a brilliant alternative to the regular chocolate you find at the supermarket and it’s sugar-free Cavalier chocolates.

Now don’t be turned off by the sugar free aspect, because these delicious treats are made with Stevia, that all-natural sugar substitute that everyone’s raving about these days! For those of you that haven’t heard of it, Stevia is a 100% natural sweetener that has been used for centuries, and is naturally about 300 times sweeter than ordinary sugar – yes, you read that right, 300 times! Unlike the artificial sweeteners you can buy in the shops, Stevia is healthier for you as it’s natural and has no calories. Cavalier chocolates have over 20 flavours and there’s absolutely no added artificial sugar in them. Whilst most sugar-free snacks lack flavour, Cavalier chocolates taste just as, if not more, luxurious than most chocolates you can buy today. Cavalier is a family run business that has been creating their scrumptious chocolates since 1996, and has been dedicated to using the healthiest natural ingredients – so you don’t have to worry about putting any nasty artificial ingredients in your body. Their products contain natural antioxidants, fibres, vitamin E, magnesium, zinc and iron – and you certainly can't say the same for that Twix you were about to eat?! With flavours ranging from mango raspberry, orange, flax seed, caramel, praline and more, there’s an indulgent treat for everyone, and starting at just £0.99 they’re not going to hurt your purse either!

Whether you’re looking for a guilt-free treat to squeeze into your bikini or just a healthier option to snack on during the day, check out Cavalier chocolates.
