Top Secret Fat-Burning Food # 3 – Dark Chocolate
Yup! You read that correctly! It’s not a joke. Consuming good quality, dark cacao chocolate will actually encourage you to drop a dress size by controlling your eating habits.
How on earth is that possible you ask??
Three hormones — insulin, ghrelin and leptin which all work together to keep your appetite in check. Insulin controls the transfer of sugar from the bloodstream to the cells in your body. Ghrelin is produced to increase your appetite, while leptin suppresses it. People who are insulin-resistant or those who have overactive eating habits, lose the ability to feel full.
Many studies have proven that when you consume high quality dark cacao chocolate (70% or higher), it actually decreases insulin resistance and lowers ghrelin levels, which then suppresses your appetite and food cravings so you can lose weight.
There are also some very powerful antioxidants in dark chocolate, called polyphenols which have a profound effect on your sense of well-being and health. When you feel good, you tend to eat less to seek comfort, giving you a lasting sense of peace and well-being.
So don’t be afraid to indulge in a piece of dark cacao chocolate to help kick your bad eating habits while increasing your antioxidant consumption! It’s a Win-Win situation!
