If you suffer from low energy levels as the day continues or, worse still, rely on sugary drinks and candy/chocolate to give you that pick-me-up then these little snacks would be much better for you.

With lower GI and a slower release of sugar and energy these will maintain energy and concentration levels throughout the day.

    As a person with diabetes who definitely knows the troubles of high and low
    blood sugar, I wholeheartedly approve of these.

    Dried fruits are actually some of the worst things you can eat. All simple
    carbs (sugar), nutrients dried up during dehydration process, and since the
    calories stay the same, you will eat more dried fruit to get the same
    satisfaction than just eating hydrated fruit.

    Snacking is also a pretty stupid thing to do if you’re cutting. Eating
    small throughout the day has proven to be bullshit, and having more
    opportunities to eat will result in overconsumption…

    The most effective way to stay full is to just drink water. It’s so
    stupidly simple that it baffles me how few people know this.

    If I melted dark chocolate and dipped them in there and let them set, how
    do you think those would turn out?

    You think you guys could make the sorted app available for those of us
    without iPhones. All the android people out here are starting to feel
    excluded! ;)

    This reminds me of a not-so-healthy Swedish snack called “chocolate balls”,
    and it’s basically oatmeal, sugar, cocao, butter and a splash of coffee or
    orange juice, rolled up in balls and tossed around in either coconut or
    pearled sugar 🙂 delicious

    There is no such thing as a sugar high. There is no scientific evidence of
    energy highs or energy crashes caused by sugar. There are many OTHER
    reasons to avoid sugar, but energy isn’t one of them. We need to stop
    perpetuating that idea.

    If you don’t like dates, raisins, prunes or other dried fruits what could
    you use instead to make these?

    that actually looks really good :O I bet you can mix and match with all the
    ingredients to what you think taste good 🙂 Im not a fan of dates an prunes

    add-in’s :D

    Would you guys also do some savory healthy snacks? Maybe a few shelf-stable
    snacks that can be grabbed on the go for a quick boost?
