Health Benefits of Carob
What are the health benefits of eating carob instead of chocolate? One of the most important health benefits of carob versus chocolate use is the fact that carob does not contain caffeine. Some people have a low tolerance for caffeine, so this is an important benefit. Also carob doesn't contain theobromine, one of the other main ingredients in chocolate that acts as a stimulant and can cause some people to have trouble with their sleep. Although Carob and Chocolate are two completely different treats, people do tend to compare them as an either/or type of thing. Really, you can enjoy both if you are able for different reasons and in different recipes. Admittedly, we are a little low on carob recipes here at Chocolate Candy Mall, but we are always happy for you to share your carob recipe to start to even the scales. :) You can add your carob recipe here for the rest of us to enjoy! ~Angie
