Super Cacao Concentrate

First things first, I obviously had to try this on its own. Purely out of curiosity, and it honestly wasn't my personal favourite taste, but then I added it to a smoothie, and THAT was where things got interesting. It's genuinely so delicious.

I've also been mixing it with my protein after boxing sessions, and it's quickly become one of my favourite post-workout rituals.

After a few weeks of using it, I started noticing that I seemed to have more energy throughout the day. My body just felt good, if that makes sense?

What I especially loved was how I felt after boxing. Rather than feeling completely wiped out, I'd have my smoothie and feel energised, but also relaxed and calm. A combination I'll happily take any day of the week.

Whether that's entirely down to the concentrate or a combination of things, I can't say for certain. But I've really enjoyed having it as part of my routine.

Active Greens+

Now, this was the one I was probably most curious about.

I've tried my fair share of greens products, and let's just say some of them have required a LOT of enthusiasm to finish. 😂

The Active Greens+ has a really pleasant, almost sweet green-tea-like flavour, which I genuinely enjoy.

I've mostly been mixing it into my protein shakes, and one of the first things I noticed was how I felt afterwards.

Normally, protein shakes leave me feeling quite full and heavy. With this combination, I still felt satisfied, but without that uncomfortable heaviness.

And here's the part that really impressed me: I noticed I was a lot less bloated.

As someone who has IBS, that's a pretty big deal. My digestive system and I have had a complicated relationship for years, so anything that coincides with a few more comfortable days gets my attention. 😂

I can't promise everyone will have the same experience, but personally, this was one of the things I appreciated most.

Bare Bars

OH, these. I'm someone with a serious sweet tooth, so when I find a snack that's made with wholesome ingredients AND tastes genuinely delicious, I'm very happy.

And these are SO good.

I tried a few different flavours, but the Peanut Butter is hands down my favourite. The Choc Cacao is a very close second.

What I love most is how convenient they are. Whether it's a quick snack in the morning, something to grab in the afternoon, or one of those days when I'm running around and realise I haven't packed anything to eat, they're perfect to have on hand.

They're made with ingredients like dates and nuts, and also contain plant protein, fibre and probiotics. So there's a little more going on than just being delicious.
