Does Gogranola fit into a healthy diet?

Yes.  Currently scientific evidence indicates that the Mediterranean Diet has a beneficial influence on health and longevity.  It’s comprised principally of vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, minimally processed cereals, fish, foods high in monounsaturated fats and low in saturated fat, low to moderate intake of dairy, low intake of meat products, and moderate intake of alcohol.  Gogranola, being a minimally processed food containing nuts, clearly works with this diet.

What types of fats are present in Gogranola?

Nuts are inherently low in saturated fat, the cause of heart disease and immune suppression. Nuts also contain polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats which are considered to be the “good fats”.  They supply us with “essentials fatty acids”, essential because we cannot make them and therefore must be supplied by food. Gogranola contains mainly the “good fats” and is low in the “bad (saturated) fat”.  It’s not the total fat in the diet; it’s the saturated fat that is a problem.  You can enjoy Gogranola knowing that you’re eating something that tastes great and is good for you, too.

What are the best ways to eat Gogranola?

Gogranola is a great topping for yogurt, fruit, ice cream, and applesauce or even on pancakes.  Try dipping an apple or banana in peanut butter and then in Gogranola and you have a delicious and satisfying snack. It’s great in baked goods as well. There are no limits to the ways Gogranola can be combined with other foods.  Of course Gogranola is fantastic all by itself.
