UNREAL for National Diabetes Month

November is National Diabetes Month, and with 26 million Americans currently living with this disease, it’s the perfect time to make simple lifestyle changes to optimize your health. I know many of us have a sweet tooth. The problem is - we are taking in too much sugar, which can lead to diabetes. That is why I love UNREAL for satisfying sugar cravings with five delicious, chocolate coated candies with less sugar, more protein and more fiber than leading brands.

Believe it or not, UNREAL is the brainchild of Nicky Bronner, a 15 year old candy lover who embarked on a mission to prove that candy can be unjunked. “Why does the food we love the most have to contain ingredients we prefer to avoid?” questioned Nicky. Leading up to launch, Nicky studied health issues, including diabetes, which ultimately inspired him to create a brand that could “unjunk food.”

If less sugar isn't reason enough to love UNREAL candies, here are a bunch more...

 · No corn syrup

· No hydrogenated oil

· No artificial flavors

· No GMO’s

· Responsibly sourced ingredients, including:

o Traceable cacao beans from Ghanaand Ecuador

o 100% sustainable and organic Palm Kernel Oil sourced from a sustainable and organic plantation in Brazil

o Dairy from free-range cows pasture raised without antibiotics or added hormones

o All natural origin colors, coming from plants like beets, red cabbage, etc.

o 30% less sugar, 60% more protein and 250% more fiber

There are five varieties of UNREAL candies:

 UNREAL™ 41: Candy Coated Chocolates,  UNREAL™ 54:Candy Coated Chocolates with Peanuts,  UNREAL™ 5:Chocolate Caramel Nougat Bar, UNREAL™ 8: Chocolate Caramel Peanut Nougat Bar, and UNREAL™ 77: Peanut Butter Cups. Everyone in our family gives UNREAL two thumbs wayyy wayyy up! No one would have guessed that these are healthier versions of other junk-filled candies.

No, UNREAL candies are not super expensive or only found in select stores. You can find UNREAL candies right around the corner at stores near you and at the same price as typical candy bars!!

Replace your usual treats with UNREAL and enjoy every bite, guilt free!
