We’re taste-testing Macalat sweet dark chocolate made of organic heirloom Peruvian cacao erythritol, pink salt, monkfruit, vanilla bean, cinnamon, and sunflower lecithin. But it’s the mushroom extract that creates the smooth, sweet finish.

Chocolate and mushrooms might not seem like an obvious pairing at first. But these two superfoods combined can delight your taste buds.

The chocolate bars are a nice size. After two bites, it has a rich taste and velvety smooth consistency compared to other brands of sugar-free chocolate bars that tend to be more chalky textured.

The makers discovered a way to balance and sweeten fine 70% heirloom cacao without sugar or sacrificing taste and smoothness.

Two pieces of chocolate contain 3 grams of sugar alcohol, but because of the fiber content, Macalat has zero net carbs for those Keto followers who care about this. Macalat is the first sweet dark chocolate that is organic and sugar-free.  No hidden ingredients, just healthy organic superfoods. This chocolate is very satisfying! Macalat is vegan, keto, paleo, soy-free, gluten-free, and dairy-free.

A box of 12 chocolate bars costs $58.68, but they’re currently offering a 15% Discount on their website. Click on LINK to learn more about Macalot Sweet Dark Chocolate.

With a few simple swaps, you can help live your best life while managing your diabetes. Our experts offer straightforward, simple, and fun swap ideas for drinks, medications, self-care, and fashion. Plus, we share style tips and words of inspiration to help you maintain a healthy habit.

Developing these habits isn’t always easy. Adapting to a new routine can be tricky, and it’s often tempting to want to return to old ways if we don’t see immediate results. One of the biggest mistakes people make when forming a new habit is taking on too much too quickly.  Focus on what’s working in your diabetes self-care plan before overhauling diabetes management. Instead of decluttering the entire house, why not focus on one room or closet? Why not focus on the calories you drink rather than everything you eat?  If you want to eat healthier, try replacing one dessert daily with a piece of fruit rather than cutting out sugar completely. If you’re going to get into hiking, start with a walk at lunchtime. Setting small goals you can achieve will help keep you motivated along the way.

We’re sharing ways to ease into healthy lifestyle changes on this episode of Divabetic’s popular podcast.

Podcast guests include Catherine Schuller, Poet Lorraine Brooks, Patricia Addie-Gentle RD, CDCES, MaryAnn Horst Nicolay, MEd, NDTR, and Mama Rose Marie. Hosted by Mr. Divabetic.

The happy healthcare host, Mr. Divabetic stops by the Mermaid Parade in Coney Island to raise awareness for diabetes in a fun, new way.

The Mermaid Parade, founded in 1983, officially opens the ocean for summer swimming, teaches mythology to Brooklyn families, and provides self-esteem for Coney Island and artistic self-expression for the New York City arts community.

Over the years, the Mermaid Parade has grown into the largest event of the year at Coney Island, and it is also one of the ten biggest parades annually in New York City.

This year’s version featured dancers, bands, square politicians, people costumed as pirates, octopuses, and sailors, and many women wearing fake fishtails on their bottoms and nothing but sequined pasties — or less — on top!
