Alfajores are popular South American sandwich shortbread cookies filled with dulce de leche and coconut. Living with arthritis does not mean you have to stop living – you can still enjoy a little treat once and a while! Alfajores contain coconut, which is high in dietary fibre, copper, iron and selenium, an important antioxidant. Research has shown that some people with rheumatoid arthritis have lower levels of selenium. Alfajores provide a little sweet indulgence to bring a perfect end to a delicious feast.
