Food & Wine Magazine Recommends LivingFuel’s CocoChia Snack Mix On NewYork1 Television As A High-Energy Power Food

Food & Wine Magazine Editor Grace Parisi is a featured guest on television giant NewYork1 each week to talk about the latest in food and drink. She recently talked with host Kristen Shaughnessy about eating power foods to increase energy and mentioned LivingFuel’s CocoChia Snack Mix first.

“Chia seeds – who would have known that they are so healthful. They’ve got a lot of good omega 3s, enormous amounts of fiber, and unlike flax seeds, you don’t have to grind them to get the health benefits from them.” – Grace Parisi, Editor, Food & Wine Magazine

Parisi also talked about the great taste of CocoChia Snack Mix. “They are delicious, the whole mix, with coconut and the chia seeds, called CocoChia. It’s delicious.”

LivingFuel CocoChia really is the ultimate snack fuel—nutritious, tasty and energy boosting. Rich in medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) and Omega-3s, it blends the finest organic coconut and chia seeds into a tasty, quick-energy fuel that’s ideal for athletes, dieters, and diabetics alike. Every ingredient in CocoChia Snack Mix has been chosen to help support optimal health.

Coconut is one of the richest vegetable sources of medium-chain triglycerides. Don’t let the word “triglycerides” scare you. The medium-chain triglycerides, or MCTs, in coconut, are healthy fats that provide high-energy fuel to the body for sustained energy. Most shredded coconut products remove the MCTs and sell them separately as a premium product. The coconut left behind is nutritionally devoid, adding flavor and fiber but little else. But not in CocaChia. Consumers get the total package of flavor, fiber, MCTs, and other nutrients, such as lauric acid. Lauric acid is one of coconut’s best-kept secrets, containing natural anti-viral properties.

Chia will keep individuals going for hours. The Mayan word for chia is “strength” – and with good reason. North and South Native American tribes have relied on chia for fuel and energy for centuries. The outer layer of the chia seed is made of soluble fiber, forming a slow burning, sustaining gel that provides a steady release of natural sugars into the bloodstream. There are no spikes and crashes with chia seed. Plus, chia seed contains healthy unsaturated omega 3 and omega 6 fats essential for every nerve and cell in the body.

"CocoChia Bars and Snack Mix are a favorite among athletes, dieters and diabetics from the super healthy to the health challenged. We appreciate the recognition from such an established food magazine.” KC Craichy, Founder & CEO of Living Fuel, Inc.

CocoChia Snack Mix comes in two easy-to-use sizes: 24.5 gram single serving packets and 490 gram bulk bag . The easy-to-carry and easy-to-open packets are perfect for lunchboxes, briefcases and purses. It also makes a light yet filling snack before bedtime. People love using CocoChia Snack Mix in yogurt, oatmeal, cereal, smoothies, trail mix or right out of their packet.
