The Good Things about chocolate! Let’s take a moment to talk about how CHOCOLATE can be part of a healthy diet! Chocolate is a good source of magnesium, copper, iron and zinc. It also contains Polyphenols (an antioxidant also found in red wine and tea) that have been associated with a decreased risk of coronary disease. An average chocolate bar contains about the same amount of antioxidants as a 5 ounce glass of red wine. Dark chocolate contains more antioxidants than milk chocolate, and can help lower blood pressure and improve insulin resistance according to a join study between the University of L’Aquila in Italy and Tufts University in Boston. Mind you, the findings do not suggest that people with high blood pressure consume dark chocolate in lieu of taking their medication, but that the flavonoids in dark chocolate may have a positive effect on blood pressure and insulin resistance. The chocolate choice! Research has shown that Stearic acid, the main saturated fat found in milk chocolate is unique and doe not raise cholesterol levels the same way that other types of saturated fats do. In fact, eating a 1.4 ounce chocolate bar INSTEAD of a carbohydrate-rich snack has been shown to increase good cholesterol levels! Chocolate and tooth decay. The protein, calcium and phosphate content of milk chocolate may actually protect tooth enamel and its natural occurring fat content means that chocolate clears the mouth faster than other candy, reducing the amount of time its sugars remain in contact with the tooth surfaces! Of course as with all good things moderation is the key. Chocolate can be part of a healthy life style when portion sizes are kept small and you select dark chocolate whenever possible! information from 7 Myths and Facts about Chocolate, Melting the Myths for Good by Leanne Beattie, Health and Fitness Writer SPARKPeople |
