Belvita Fruit Crunch Apple & Pear Multigrain Biscuits 225 g

Product Information

They also contain less fat per 100g than other biscuits. However, 30% Less Sugar Chocolate Chip biscuits are also worth considering since they are the lowest in sugar out of all Belvita biscuits (although they are still high in calories). Belvita biscuits won’t make you fat if the rest of your diet is good. They are, however, heavily processed and could lead to the consumption of more processed foods which could contribute to weight gain. Besides these FAQs, we also got some help from our friend Sally of Real Mom Nutrition, who has rounded up all of the latest health research that favors our two beloved Stemilt fruits and how they may improve heart health. How Apples & Pears May Improve Heart Health Soft Bakes Filled Apricot launches this month and both Fruit Crunch flavours will hit shelves on 1 September. This is a question we often receive, and the good news is: no! All apples and pears are created equal when it comes to health and nutritional benefits. The difference between varieties comes down to flavor and texture.

They’re full of flavonoids: Flavonoids are plant chemicals that that can help safeguard health. In a study of nearly 200,000 men and women, regularly eating apples and pears—both rich in a kind of flavonoid called anthocyanins–was associated with a lower risk for type 2 diabetes, a major risk factor for heart disease. Now for the big question. Do they taste any good? Let’s be honest, it doesn’t matter if they are the greatest nutritional “superfood” ever invented but if they taste awful then it’s all irrelevant. Let’s not plant the seed that biscuits are ok for breakfast because before long you know that you a going to end up with a breakfast table argument about why we shouldn’t eat chocolate hobnobs for breakfast!So, are there any health benefits to be gained from eating BelVita biscuits? Annoyingly, as with most answers in the world of nutrition, the answer here is “ it depends”. It depends on where you are now and what you are trying to achieve. I definitely wouldn’t feed them to kids. Again, not necessarily due to the nutritional values but more because of the nutritional concepts.

There would be further room for improvement away from these biscuits but it would be a step in the right direction. Apples can help keep your arteries clear due to the amount of fiber they contain. Both apples and pears are high in fiber. A medium apple with the skin has 4 grams of fiber, and a medium pear has 5. Researchers from Harvard University found that for every 10 grams of fiber you eat, your risk for coronary heart disease drops by 14 percent—and fruit fiber was found to be especially protective. What are the health benefits of pears and are pears good for you?They fill you up: Pears and apples are both rich in two things that fill your belly and keep you fuller longer: fluid and fiber. These fruits are particularly rich in soluble fiber, which slow digestion—which may help you avoid overeating (and gaining weight!). They’re rich in antioxidants: A study at The Ohio State University found that eating an apple every day for four weeks lowered levels of a kind of “bad” cholesterol that triggers hardening of the arteries. Researchers say the kind of antioxidants in apples—called polyphenols–may be the reason why. In terms of ingredients and nutritional profile, they are very similar, however, if you start drifting into the Duo Crunch Chocolate Hazelnut range then the calories do bump up a touch and so does sugar content. But nutrition is more than just a number’s game. It is about taste, pleasure and choosing to eat in a way that fits with the life you want to lead and the goals you want to achieve.
