Chocolate and obesity
November 25, 2009
I know a large number of girls love Chocolate, but they have to keep themselves from taking in more much chocolate daily due to worring about becoming fat. In fact, chocolate has a long history as a favoured food of many cultures. Today, it is also popular with people. It is considered a luxury food that should be eaten sparingly, since it can contribute to migraines, and obesity. Does chocolate have bad effect on our health? New research is debunking these common fallacies.
Studies are now indicating that chocolate or cocoa in moderation is actually good for us, and may help prevent heart disease, cancer and other degenerative illnesses. As far as egularly eating chocolate will lead to obesity, it is not right.
As we all known, if a person regularly eats more food than their body needs, they will store the excess energy as body fat. Chocolate is energy dense, which means it contains comparatively high levels of kilojoules for its weight, approximately 2,200kJ per 100gm. Regularly eating energy dense foods is perhaps the fastest way to gain excess weight, but it would be wrong to say that regularly eating chocolate will lead to obesity. It is overeating in general that is the culprit, not specific foods.
If you have a healthy diet, you can safely eat chocolate in moderation without fear of weight gain.
