First time I heard about this was from the Greek American Ultra-runner Dean Karnazis.  He always has some before and during his long runs.

It is sesame seeds in honey and sometimes nuts are added to the recipe.

Sesame seeds are super rich in magnesium which is the alpha and omega of muscle function.

Muscles and the heart, which is nothing but a muscle cannot function without magnesium.

Avoid cramps and fatigue by consuming magnesium-rich foods.

Honey is an instant energy booster.

Immediately absorbed into the bloodstream, they assist athletes, runners and sportspeople in general achieve their goals.

Substitute gels and other supposedly fantastic energy bars for pure and effective pasteli.
