Beskrivelse
We all have childhood memories of chocolate pies, cakes, and brownies. And everyone loved that piece of fudge. Chocolate is our Guilty Pleasure.
But should it be?
Most of us crave chocolate, but as we grow, we try to avoid it. The surprising news is that once we develop a better relationship with anything involving chocolate, we learn that good chocolate has surprising health benefits.
First of all, enjoying a bit of chocolate every day keeps us from gorging on it endlessly and gaining weight. Keeping the relationship healthy prevents us from overeating and allows us to develop a better attitude toward chocolate.
The fact is, dark chocolate is filled with lots of powerful antioxidants that can prevent cell damage. These antioxidants are believed to help lower blood pressure and help with heart disease while lowering the risk of diabetes. When enjoyed as a part of a healthy diet, dark chocolate can be very good for you. Keep in mind that the health benefits refer to dark chocolate and unsweetened cocoa powder, and not milk chocolate. Keep that in mind when making your chocolate choices.
The recipes in this A Taste of Chocolate Every Day Cookbook can incorporate the right amount of chocolate into your days. It's a sweet thing. And keep in mind that the better the quality of chocolate you use, the better your results.
