Brian Anwar Blog: Feel Boosted Lemon Poppy Seed Bites

It’s nice to have options to munch on when we need a bit of energy. For me it’s usually in the middle of the afternoon, post-‘Lil Bub’s nap when I’ve already been working since 8 am and it starts to get even more chaotic with fresh toddle energy! :) That’s around when I go snooping in the kitchen to see what I can get some support with, and I thank my lucky stars when I have healthy bites around, which is…

why I created my Feel Boosted Lemon Coconut Poppy Seed Bites…for all of us! These bites are the perfect snack to keep on hand, to boost your brain function, and to maintain your energy. We can all can feel a slump mid-day, and instead of reaching for (another) cup of coffee, you can have one of these nourishing bites.

My Feel Boosted Lemon Coconut Poppy Seed Bites recipe is geared to help you feel energized and help your body naturally cleanse!

They are so easy to make and filled with such amazing Beauty and energy nutrients. Check ’em out…

Get Boosted with Poppy Seeds

It’s not every day that you think of reaching for poppy seeds. You might find yourself eating them when they are sprinkled on some baked goods, but it’s about time to start adding them into your regular routine.

Why is that you might ask? Well Beauties, poppy seeds are an amazing enhancer to boost your brain function. Poppy seeds are a great source of minerals, like calcium, iron, and magnesium. And our bodies need these minerals to regulate brain activity and to develop neurons. They also aid in the production of neurotransmitters. Who would have known that such little seeds can do so much!?

Another way that poppy seeds can really boost your day is through their high amounts of dietary fiber. Consuming dietary fiber actually aids our digestive system. It helps us metabolize our foods and prevents constipation and other digestive problems. Digestive issues are a huge energy suck! We can feel so fatigued while our body is trying to process difficult to digest foods and assimilate (any) nutrients in them (ugh!). Luckily, foods high in fiber, like my Lemon Coconut Poppy Seed Bites, can help speed up these processes. In turn, we are gifted with more energy to enjoy throughout our day!

For the Love of Lemons

You all know how much I just LOVE lemons! They are pretty much one of nature’s perfect foods. Lemons help us absorb nutrients and they act as an astringent for the body. As you go through changes and the everyday stresses of life, our bodies continually need detox support. And my Lemon Coconut Poppy Seed bites are very capable of giving you the support you need, thanks to the lemons. Just one serving of lemons provides you with an impressive 187% of your daily requirements of vitamin C. WOW! Move over oranges, time for some more lemon in our lives.

Not only should lemons be recognized for their huge boost of vitamin C, but also for so many of their other minerals, including the strengthening mineral calcium. Well, do you know that just one lemon will provide you with 15mg of calcium? That’s right Beauties! Enjoy these Lemon Coconut Poppy Seed Bites and know that you are getting some extra calcium in there too. You’ll also be fueling up your body with magnesium, vitamin B6, potassium, and copper! Now isn’t that nice :)

Besides all the wonderful nutritional benefits these Lemon Coconut Poppy Seed Bites have to offer, they are just downright delicious! They are really easy to whip up and just such a fun, delicious treat to enjoy. If you have little ones running around the house, my bet is that they will love them too!
