It's Sunday! Back in the day, Sunday meant going to church and spending time with your family. Nowadays, Sunday means recovering from your hangover after a few too many drinks in the bar. But Sunday is also sin day. We can go all out eating bad stuff because it's a rest day and we have to face the horrors of Monday in 24 hours again. So, in today's Sinful Sunday, I want to discuss every girl's best friend:
The power of chocolate is often underestimated. Men should understand that in most cases, when their girlfriends are cranky for whatever reason, a bar of chocolate is the answer. Why? Because the smell of chocolate alone can increase theta brain waves, which trigger relaxation. So before you throw his playstation out of the window because he left the toilet seat up, have a piece of chocolate so you will be the cool, calm and collected person that you are. Plus, actually eating the chocolate makes you happy. Win win situation right there!
I am personally not a fan of the bitter taste of dark chocolate, but as you know, it does reduce the risk of heart disease by one third. Considering the fact that your heart is basically an essential part of your body, it is nice to know that in theory, we can keep it beating just by munching on chocolate. I guess I will have to deal with the bitter taste at some point. Hmmm...
And yes, we all realise that despite the advantages, chocolate is full of fat. But do not fret! Despite all the fat, chocolate does not appear to raise blood cholesterol levels. Another positive effect is that chocolate has an anti-bacterial effect on the mouth and protects against tooth decay. Which means you can eat even more chocolate! Yay!
So girls, forget all about diets today. Superfoods? Who needs superfoods when the only superfood you need is probably already in your kitchen. Chocolate is indeed our best friend. Enjoy!
