Turmeric Bar

Turmeric is related to ginger and tastes similar, sweet and warm with a delicate spiciness that leaves room for a burst of chocolate flavour from the cacao, a definite favourite at Human Food HQ. The recipe includes a small amount of black pepper which gives another layer of invigorating warmth but also increases the uptake of the active ingredients.

About the most studied functional food out there, turmeric is shown to aid the immune system and to reduce inflammation. These bars are very popular with athletes looking to improve recovery.

*Omega 3 Reference Intake based on In the UK, current total intakes of n-6 and n-3 fatty acids are 10.2g/day and 1.8g/day, respectively; equating to a ratio of 5.67:1. Intakes of the essential fatty acids, linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid are 10.04 and 1.55g/day, respectively. These data are derived from the Total Diet Survey. Using data on energy intake from the National Food Survey for the same year, intakes of these individual fatty acids, these values translate to energy intakes of 5% of energy from linoleic acid and 0.8% from alpha-linolenic acid.
