Dark Chocolate, Helps You Become Slim And Healthy

Can you keep a healthy weight loss plan even if you eat chocolates? Mostly, people who are having their diets get rid of sweets because of the thinking that it can make them fat. But let me tell you a secret:

Studies have shown that consuming a small bar of dark chocolate everyday can reduce blood pressure in individuals with high blood pressure. Dark chocolate has also been shown to reduce LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) by up to 10 per cent. <http://longevity.about.com/od/lifelongnutrition/p/chocolate.htm>

Dark Chocolate

University of Copenhagen researchers found that eating dark chocolate can help regulate appetite. They theorize that it may be due to the bitter taste of dark chocolate. Dark chocolate has more cocoa butter, most of which is stearic acid that is known to slow down digestion, says the online Health Magazine. The Flat Belly Diet of Prevention magazine says monounsaturated fatty acids or MUFAs, the kind of fat found in dark chocolate actually keeps your belly flat. It recommends including dark chocolate in your everyday diet in controlled amounts.

But although chocolates are good, a lot is not better. Still, you must consume it with moderation. You can enjoy it, but you must also know the limitation and control.

Why eggs? Can eggs really be a part of a healthy, fat loss diet? Yes!

A single egg contains around 210mg of dietary cholesterol. Truly, many high cholesterol foods are also high in saturated fats. But the egg is not one of them. One egg has 5g of fat (about 8% of daily value), of which only 1.5g is saturated.  http://lowfatcooking.about.com/od/faqs/f/eggs.htm

But egg alone is not a healthy way to lose weight and the extreme intake of eggs can be dangerous to health. You can enjoy egg with moderation. And you should eat eggs along with other healthy and nutritious foods like grapefruits and vegetables. 

The American Heart Association says that one egg a day is acceptable, but to keep in mind the cholesterol in that egg along with the other foods that you eat in the day. Those with heart disease, diabetes, or a high level of LDL 'bad' cholesterol should probably choose a small or medium egg vs. larger ones which have more cholesterol. Remember that egg whites have no cholesterol.

China produces the most eggs, at about 160 billion per year. In the United States, about 280 million hens produce more than 65 billion eggs per year. A hen can lay about 250 eggs per year.
