healthy desserts

You might think that a slice of chocolate cake is so delicious decadent must be bad for your health. Not really. You probably think that there can be another reason for eat this delicious dessert with the exception of its wonderful flavor. That's where you're wrong. Eating a chocolate pecan pie has health benefits that do not realize.
Take the first ingredient on the pecan pie as an example. Obviously, the pecan is a bone. Nuts are good sources of protein, unsaturated fat (oleic acid), and more of 19 vitamins and minerals like vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin B1, calcium, potassium, zinc and magnesium. Research suggests that 1 to 2 ounces a day of nuts, as nuts, may reduce the risk of heart disease, especially if taken with a diet low in cholesterol. Sterols are found in nuts are reported to the levels cholesterol. Pecans are among foods with higher antioxidant capacity. It is actually the nut which contains the most antioxidants. Acid pecans are rich in vitamin E, flavonoids and ellagic acid, antioxidant-related anti-cancer effects and prevent diseases that cause oxidation in the body. These phytochemicals appear to protect against colon, stomach and rectal cancer. That slice of chocolate cake can not be so bad after all. And for those with a diet, pecans are included in 35% of the calories you need to get fat. Pecans are low in carbohydrates and unsaturated fats that can help keep the weight more. Even is a good source of fiber. A slice of chocolate pecan pie that can make your day equivalent of the nut of unsaturated fat and fiber.
The chocolate cake chocolate nut has its advantages too. Cocoa or dark chocolate has antioxidants such as flavonoids, which have anti-cancer effects. Some studies also claim that chocolates cause a slight decrease in blood pressure. Remember the times you ate chocolate to feel good after a fight with her boyfriend or the mother? Chocolates contain stimulants theobromine, caffeine, tyramine and phenylethylamine. Tryptophan reduces anxiety in cocoa.
Chocolates also says the release of endorphins, which reduce the sensation of pain. The claim to be an aphrodisiac, is not validated yet, but probably comes from the effects it produces, such as reducing anxiety and boost energy.
Each pecan pie needs of their eggs. Eggs are a good source of protein. Not only contain choline for brain and nervous system, which also have lutein, which helps prevent age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. And contrary most reviews, eating an egg a day does not significantly affect cholesterol levels. Each chocolate pecan pie also contains only 3 eggs. If eating only a portion of the 8 that the pecan pie is divided into only receives less than an egg with that slice. Do the math.
The combination of these ingredients in a circular chocolate pecan is not only good for the senses, but also for their health. Just remember, however, that as in everything in life, moderation is the key. Eating a slice of chocolate cake is good if done once a day a couple of times a month. It becomes unhealthy if taken more than that.
Thus The next time you take a bite of that chocolate pecan pie, also remember what you can do for your health. Visit Tanner Pecans and Candies for the best cakes nuts and desserts.
