Just stopping by to say the PUL app is an absolute masterpiece. The recipes, meal planning and grocery list features are all a 10/10. The features link together seamlessly and intuitively and the overall user experience is just outstanding. I can’t imagine going back to any other method of meal planning! Highly recommend to all those here who enjoy this style of eating!❤❤❤

[@BeautifulPlanet]

The hot chocolate looks great! Is there a concern with the caffeine in the cocoa right before bed?

[@Kaisey555]

Definitely. This is not good for sleep in anyway shape or form.

[@RJ-gu4oh]

My mother-in-law can have an espresso and go straight to sleep no issues. If I have 1 square of dark chocolate I'll be up until 3am 😂

[@sn480]

Sadia specifically mentions using Dutch-processed cocoa, which has about 2/3rds less caffeine than regular cocoa.

[@themovingintosleepmethod]

Creative cooking is always lovely! However, I would make these earlier during the day. Years ago, I used to snack until bedtime, but then tried out how it is to avoid eating after 8pm, and without any extra effort I lost 20Kg, and my sleep is much calmer. So that is my way. Key to amazing sleep is in knowing how to calm your nervous system, cooking the right kind of foods is certainly one way to achieve that.

[@nisrl681]

Yes! Thank you for posting a video that encourages us to follow our hunger cues. The majority of the research coming out now about the positives of intermittent fasting are mostly testing men. My doctor encourages me to have a bedtime snack that includes protein, fat, and carbs. You guys are so on it!

[@arianerhomberg6835]

I love when you add geeky nutrition science details! Two questions: Around how long before bed do I need to eat these snacks to reap the benefits? And does fiber still fill its function when blended?

[@hillaryhempel2658]

Thank you for these recipes. I am wondering, are there any other recipes besides the cashew butter/bean dip that you love to make for bedtime snacks that do not contain cocoa? I find that eating any form of cocoa before bed gives me too much caffeine and actually causes me to stay awake rather than fall asleep.

[@melissaj1222]

Wow!!! I forgot how much I LOVE your channel ❤Thanks for always giving us healthy tips ☺️

[@ingebesteman]

I love these scientific videos combined with recipes! Also this one specific, because at night I have cravings of cashews and dates. Now I know why!

[@federicade6382]

The old video is not cringy at all, to be something you were just trying! 😮❤ Love the ideas in this video - I'll be dreaming about those pb filled balls until I manage to make them - but I wouldn't make them for before bed as cocoa tends to wake me up! 😅

[@jonap5740]

Doesn't cocoa contain caffeine? Also, how much tryptophan is necessary to get a sleep benefit? Curious about nutrition, and love your channel.

[@everydayserenity7604]

I tried the cheesecake dip. It's so satisfying when a recipe turns out the way you really hope it would 😋 It's really good! And you're right you don't even taste the butter beans 😄 Thanks 👍🏽

[@annaoutdoors]

You may have an article about this but I'm curious about dates and their high sugar content. I'm trying to limit my sugar intake and these all seem high in sugar, especially with the dates. They all look absolutely delicious. Those chocolate and peanut butter balls would be a great quick snack before bed.

[@sn480]

The sugars in the dates and maple syrup are natural (vs. processed, like white sugar) and therefore have a low glycemic index. That means you won't get a sugar high and then a sugar crash. Also, Sadia mentioned that the carbs help with faster absorption of the tryptophan.

[@lily5952]

Dates, like other fruit, contain unprocessed sugar. Plant foods like fruit have a fibre matrix that helps decrease the rate at which you absorb the sugars. It's different to table sugar which is absorbed rapidly and causes sugar spikes. Unless your doctor has told you that you cannot eat fruit for some reason, there's no reason to avoid dates or other fruit entirely. Just be sensible about your consumption.

[@annaoutdoors]

@@lily5952 thanks for this. I appreciate it.

[@MLawrence1941]

[@phyllisannbonviso6641]

here is a quick hot chocolate, when you don't have time. Take one of the chocolate balls you make or two, throw them in a blender, add milk, blend until you don't have any nuts floatin' about and heat on the stove. Any one of the balls, as long as it has chocolate in it, makes for a quick chocolate drink, hot or cold - or I am lazy and it works for me - in a pinch (no pun intended). Love the last scene with the chair and the lights, so wanted to be there, yep, that cozy looking!

[@clairespence4796]

Absolutely love seeing your funny side coming out in all your videos in the past few months. Love this channel ❤

[@marieokumura2105]

Aww the golden hot chocolate looks decadent! What about chocolate having caffeine, though? Is it different than coffee (like matcha reacts differently apparently)? Also, what is your opinion on maybe feeling too stuffed to sleep? Any advice on how to manage that?

[@PickUpLimes]

Hey Marie! Great questions 🤓 "Dutch Processed" indicates that the cocoa was treated with a mild alkalizing agent (such as baking soda). This process results in a caffeine content of as low as 0.1%, and up to 2% (depending on the brand), so the amount is really quite negligible. As for feeling too stuffed, it can definitely affect sleep in some people. We always suggest eating until comfortably full, and enjoying main meals at least a couple of hours before bed can help to ensure the food is properly digested before laying down 😊

[@BrideofJesuChristo2]

Today I ate: Breakfast: coffee, peanut butter on rice cakes, apple. Lunch: impossible meat/onion fry on a pita with hummus, a small avocado, and apple juice. Dinner: lemon and barley tofu with carrots and mixed greens. Desert: coconut cream, PB, banana, maca stevia iced smoothie (tasted like a milk shake) Late night snack: another pita with hummus, carbonated water. Did I do okay? I feel like I could eat way more greens so I stay full. I notice that if I forget spices or greens I start having cravings for sweets. Meat gives me this warm feeling in my legs, like it makes my blood run. I s till feel weak even after eating all of this today- The only close alternative I've found to this is molasses mixed in with beet juice and cinnamon..i am not medically anemic.... Is that nuts?

This has come at the perfect time! I’m always so snacky after I put the kids to bed but I don’t want to eat a ton. Any ideas for replacing the cashews, though? We have an allergy in the house so I wouldn’t want them to get mixed up. Would almonds work the same way? I’m worried that the end product wouldn’t be as creamy.

Maybe try macadamia?

[@rachaelerin1]

@@Snurkiesnorkz that’s a good idea! Will give it a go.

[@PickUpLimes]

Hey Rachael, glad to hear the recipes have come at the right time! You can maybe try blanched almonds soaked overnight first to help soften them. Then drain and add to a high-power (ideally 600W or higher) food processor to help get it to a similar level of creaminess - I hope this helps! 😊

these all look so yummy! though given that cocoa contains caffeine, couldn't a couple of these recipes have the opposite effect?

[@PickUpLimes]

Hey Eleonora, thanks for the question 😊 we used Dutch processed cocoa powder, where the "Dutch Processed" indicates that the cocoa was treated with a mild alkalizing agent (such as baking soda). This process results in a caffeine content of less than 2% to as low as 0.1% in the final product. So the caffeine content is very little, especially when considering the amount is divided over several portions, like with the energy balls for example 🤓 I hope this helps!
