Flavonoids are good for you. But what in the world are flavonoids anyway? Well, flavonoids are the “good stuff” found in berries… strawberries, fruits, vegetables and teas. The “good stuff” is good for your heart as well as other organs in your body.
These flavonoids have the same affects as antioxidants. If you don’t know what antioxidants are, please read this article… http://members.ezinearticles.com/?type=pv&art_id=1241832&id=110275&pass=7e52e26f9150dfcb60e9e4920c052a1f762b921417f95af38c7afff311918f94
That doesn’t sound very exciting, though, does it? Eating vegetables and fruits all the time. In the words of Emeril Lagasse, we need to “kick it up a notch”… make things more exciting.
Well, let me tell you, it does get more exciting…
Dark chocolate has flavonoids in it. Chocolate? Yes, chocolate! Studies show that eating one half a bar of dark chocolate a week might be a good habit to get into … and that it is good for your heart.
Sorry to tell you that milk chocolate does not do the trick for our heart. It interferes with creating “good stuff” from happening in our bodies.
So with Halloween coming around, remember, if you are going to binge on chocolate, binge on dark chocolate!
