Health Benefits:

Rich in Healthy Fats

• Shredded coconut and coconut oil are excellent sources of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which provide a quick energy boost and may support brain health.

• Almonds are rich in monounsaturated fats, which promote heart health and help regulate cholesterol levels.

  Boosts Energy Levels

  • Honey is a natural sweetener packed with antioxidants and offers a quick source of energy. Its natural sugars, combined with the healthy fats in this recipe, provide sustained energy without spikes in blood sugar.

  Supports Immune Function

  • Limes are high in vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that helps strengthen the immune system and fight inflammation.

  • The combination of vitamin C and the natural antibacterial properties of honey can support overall health.

  Aids Digestion

  • Shredded coconut contains dietary fiber, which promotes gut health and aids digestion.

  • Lime juice may stimulate digestive enzymes, helping the body better break down food.

  Promotes Skin Health

  • The vitamin E in almonds and the vitamin C in limes work together to nourish the skin, reduce oxidative stress, and promote a healthy glow.
