As many of you know, while I love to write about spas and new fitness trends and try them out in the process, I do have a slight need for a daily dose of chocolate - usually in the form of Maltesers. Everyone needs a sweet treat every so often but really, if I'm to get as fit and healthy as I'd like then I should probably put down those light bubbles of melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness and find a healthier alternative.
However, I tend to find 'healthier' alternatives rather dull. Cereal bars always have a heap of sugar or something equally calorific in them which means their bland taste just isn't worth it. Fresh fruit is all well and good but it doesn't go well with a cuppa, does it?
Aha! Enter, Ultrabody. The healthy snack manufacturers have a new range of health foods which are perfect for calorie counters who are on the go. The bars are all vegetarian, some are gluten-free, all are dairy-free and more importantly they come without any added artificial colours, flavours or preservatives. Plus, their fruity ingredients mean that some of them contribute to your five a day - what's not to love?
Most importantly, they don't taste like rabbit food. The Fruitus Organic Mixed Berry and Oat Bar would be perfect for a breakfast treat or the Organic Seven Seeds and Nut Bar goes well with a brew. There's something for everyone and if you want to look after yourself, these 100% natural bars are probably a good place to start. And yes, I wrote this post while drinking a cup of tea and yes, I had the Seven Seeds bar with it - no Maltesers in sight!

Agreed. Diet and lifestyle play a key role in keeping you healthy and your skin glowing. What you've mentioned is really informative and appreciated. What about nutritive cereal breakfast?
