Health Benefits of Overnight Oats with Chia, Cocoa & Blueberries
This wholesome overnight oats recipe is packed with nourishing ingredients that support overall wellbeing:
• Oats: A rich source of soluble fibre (especially beta-glucans), oats help to support digestion, maintain steady energy levels, and lower cholesterol.
• Chia Seeds: Tiny powerhouses of omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, and plant-based protein. Chia seeds support gut health, hydration, and sustained energy.
• Cocoa: Naturally rich in antioxidants (flavanols), cocoa contributes to heart health, mood enhancement, and improved cognitive function.
• Honey: A natural sweetener with antimicrobial properties. Honey offers a gentle energy boost and soothes the digestive system.
• Yogurt: Packed with probiotics and calcium, yogurt supports a healthy gut microbiome, bone health, and immune function.
• Vanilla Milk: Adds a creamy, naturally sweet flavour while providing essential vitamins and minerals - especially when made with fortified plant-based or dairy milk.
• Blueberries: Bursting with antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, blueberries help combat oxidative stress, support brain health, and promote radiant skin.
Together, these ingredients create a delicious, balanced breakfast that fuels your body, supports digestion, and keeps you feeling full and energised throughout the morning.
