Makan Coklat Boleh Kurus


Lama dah meninggalkan blog ni tanpa entry baru.

Artikel pasal coklat boleh kurus ni menarik perhatian n boleh lah kita share kat sini.



The recent study conducted by University of California, San Diego reveals that people who consume chocolate regularly are slimmer than those who eat less. This newfound claim lies on top of several other positive effects of chocolate, including lowering heart disease and blood pressure risks. Ah, what an icing on an already delicious cake!

Dr. Beatrice Golomb and her colleagues who conducted the study affirms that lower BMI found in those who eat chocolate regularly may be due to the fact that it provides metabolic benefits – hence helping to wash the extra calories off.

"I wasn't expecting that BMI would be favorable. That was a nice surprise,"says Golomb.

The study involved 1,000 men and women samples, whose chocolate eating pattern and exercise habit were closely monitored for a week. Consuming five times of chocolate a week is connected to the 1-point BMI lost over the period. It was also monitored that those who ate chocolate do not eat less or exercise more than those who don't consume as much chocolate.

However, the result does not mean you should eat chocolate every day just to lose weight. It is still a developing study about the link between chocolate and human's body weight – as opposed to the individual benefits of chocolate revealed in earlier studies.

We say, start a chocolate habit if you haven't developed one, but don't binge on it. What a better (and more delicious) way to prevent cholesterol and heart diseases than by consuming chocolate? When choosing chocolate products, note that vegetable oil should not be part of the ingredients – good chocolates are those containing only natural chocolate oil. It is also best if you opt for dark chocolate, that is not heavy on sugar nor milk.
