shows that a high percentage of cocoa, as found in dark chocolate,
packs in a variety of plant nutrients that can be goodfor your
cardiovascular health, your skin and more.
Loaded with flavonoids, essential minerals and antioxidants, some
experts equate dark chocolate and cocoa with the goodness of green tea
and blueberries. But, remember to not go on a binging spree, but to
eat in moderation.
Health benefits of dark chocolate:
A healthy dose of antioxidants: Dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants
found aplenty in nuts, berries, green tea and the likes, which helps
fight free radicals that can damage your health. Research has shown
that the antioxidants found in this delicacy can help protect you
against cancer, premature ageing, cardiovascular disease andeven
cancer.
Sweet news for your blood sugar: Dark chocolate, a healthy dessert
option, can fulfill your cravings for sweets and also keep your blood
sugar in check. Dark chocolate has a low glycaemic index, which means
it won't raise your blood sugar levels, of course, when eaten in
moderation.
Minerals your body needs: Dark chocolate packs in many essential
minerals like calcium, potassium, magnesium and iron that do your body
good in many ways.
The feel good factor: There is no denying that chocolate is a mood
enhancer. Chocolate contains chemical compounds like theobromine,
caffeine and phenylethylamine, which release endorphins that create a
pleasurable feeling. So if you're feelingblue, bite into a piece of
dark chocolate to feel better. Sans any guilt!
Toast to a healthy heart: Polyphenols found in dark chocolate inhibit
oxidationof LDL known as bad cholesterol (Read more about cholesterol
reducingfoods here ), thereby preventing heart disease. When this waxy
substance(LDL) sticks to your artery walls (through the processof
oxidation), it can put you at risk of heart disease.
Keeps blood pressure in check: Another means by which dark chocolate
benefits cardiovascular health is by keeping your blood pressure
under check (Watch cardiologist Dr Devi Shetty speak about symptoms
of heart attack ). Studies show that eating dark chocolate in
moderation can help lower blood pressure, so eat a small piece
everydayand reap its benefits./
