Power Boost from Health, Happiness and Horses

(Read to the end to find a super mega discount code!)

Where to start, where to start!

I LOVE this product! It is deliciously chocolatey, and amazing in my breakfast shakes. I've been using it for a week now, and it has really helped with sustaining my energy levels.

The taste is perfect - chocolaty, just sweet enough, and it gives my rather bland tasting Purition shakes much more flavour. When I have added different flavoured Choc Shots it has been amplified yet again - chocolate heaven!



This is what the product has to say for itself:

Power Boost supports weight loss, healthy blood sugar, and lean muscle support through L-glutamine—an amino acid found in your muscles. Not only will you find a myriad of additional benefits, but a delicious cocoa flavor boost as well!

Additionally, Power Boost helps improve protein metabolism, stamina recovery, and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) amino acids that maintain muscle on a low-calorie diet. These medium-chain triglycerides accelerate conversion and appetite suppression, giving you a convenient way to get the most from your nutrition without sacrificing quality.

I've had a really tough week with fatigue this week (I had waaaay too much fun going to see Stevie Wonder at the weekend!) and this has definitely helped. I had it with my lunch whilst I was at work to help get me through the long days. Each time I had some it had an almost cup-of-tea-like effect, but on my whole body, not just my brain.

As I am a teacher, I like to be active and enthusiastic in my lessons, and even battling fatigue all week, I have managed to get the best out of my students. Unlike other (dreadful!) energy drinks, this doesn't have the effect of disturbing your sleep like Monster, or Red Bull - a definite positive in my books!

The best  part of this product is that it is gluten free, and dairy free! It's made from real foods, with no nasties lurking. It's the perfect supplement to start your day with.

Ooooh.... what is this free-from magic....?

It's a chocolatey booster for my shakes! The Pure Nourish Power Boost is designed to be a healthy energy lift, as opposed to those dreadful carbonated abominations. I'll let you know what I think when I've tried it!

Food Review: Kind Dark Chocolate, Nuts and Sea Salt

My local Tesco Express has a really small 'free from' section with a small choice of foods, I was looking for something to try when I spotted the Kind dark chocolate nuts and sea salt bar, which, sounded delicious.

It's Gluten free, Dairy free, 60% nuts, high fibre, no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives and it states 'ingredients you can see and pronounce'. It's made up of almonds, peanuts, walnuts, sea salt, honey and chocolate.


Sadly I was disappointed when I tried it, there seemed to be no salt apart from one part which was super salty and slightly off putting, the nuts were really difficult to get through and the chocolate was pretty much non existent. I found it really difficult to finish it (which is surprising for me haha).

I think it cost me around £2 which honestly I wouldn't pay again, in fact I don't think I'd buy one of these on offer. I'm sorry to those of you that absolutely love them, honestly it's the first free from thing I've tried that I don't like- I'll go back to the shop soon and find something else new to try. I'm really enjoying trying things I never even considered before!

#FreeFromSwag Mini Haul

Looks like we have both been busy buying foodie goodies today! Hehe!

I dropped by Sainsbury's on the way home today, because they have the biggest and best range of free from products in my area. I wasn't disappointed!



Beloved Date Nectar

I have no idea why it's called date nectar, but this is 100% pure date syrup. I've been using Biona brand date syrup as a honey substitute and was excited to see a different brand available.



Choc Shot Orange and Choc Shot Coconut

I've had the original Choc Shot for a while - I like it because it's a really versatile product. You can make milkshakes, hot chocolate, use it as a topping, in baking and cooking, all kinds! They are vegan too, and gluten-free, and now you can get them in orange flavour and coconut flavour! They just need to bring a mint one out and my life is complete.



Nature's Store Hazelnut and Cocoa Spread

Fake vegan Nutella?? Yes please! I'll definitely try it, anyway! Still waiting for the right one...



Deliciously Free From Choc n' Orange Bar

They had these in regular "milk" choc and crispy varieties, just like the Tesco ones, so I thought I'd just get the chocolate orange one and see if that was any good. I don't recognise this packaging, so I'm guessing they are quite new, or recently revamped.



Deliciously Free From 4 Chocolate Brownies

I had one of these as a snack earlier at work. I swear blind, if I gave you one you would have no idea it was free from! Sooooo chocolatey, fudgey and delicious, with a slightly crispy top. Exactly what a brownie should be! It's going to be hard work to not eat all of these in one go....

Food Review - Vego Bars

This is the mother of all chocolate bars. No, really! It may be vegan, but it certainly doesn't taste like it. In fact, it tastes like you are eating a solid bar of Nutella (aka the food of life) with whole hazelnuts inside. The bar in the picture is the MINI size bar. Look at my hand for scale, my hands are XL in gloves btw, and just check out the generosity of this mega treat.

Dairy free, gluten free, veggie, vegan, I don't care who or what you are - you simply must try a Vego bar!

Mine are purchased at the best farm shop on the planet. Smiths Farm Shop, and as you can see, these bars are £2.05 each. Expensive, but worth every penny!

Food Review - Tesco Free From Choc Bars

These might not be the nicest safe chocolate in the world, but they do hit the spot and are only 40p each. I love the Choc 'n' Crispie bar the most, it's just like a Nestle Crunch, but without any gluten, wheat, or milk!

They are available at most Tesco's, and come in choc (like milk chocolate), choc 'n' crispie, or white. I am not too keen on white chocolate, so haven't tried that one, but the other two definitely get the thumbs up for a cheap and easy chocolate injection!
