Chocolate weight loss is a weight loss method created by the Japanese. Many people find it incredible that chocolate, a high-calorie food, can also help with weight loss. It is true that the calorie content of chocolate is indeed high, but as long as the time of eating is correct and the amount is controlled, there is absolutely no problem in losing weight through eating chocolate.
Principle of chocolate weight loss
So how can eating chocolate achieve weight loss? First, let's take a look at the principle of chocolate weight loss. Although the calorie content of chocolate is high, 100 grams of dark chocolate contains 516 calories, eating chocolate can reduce appetite and increase metabolism. When using dark chocolate for weight loss, the cocoa content should be controlled at about 75%.
How to eat chocolate for weight loss?
The following principles should be followed when eating chocolate for weight loss.
1. Choose chocolate with high cocoa butter content and low sugar content. These chocolates have weight loss effects and can also avoid excessive sugar intake. It is recommended to choose dark chocolate, which is much better than ordinary milk chocolate and nut chocolate. In addition, although truffle chocolate has low calories, the sugar content is high, so it is not suitable for weight loss.
2. Control the amount of chocolate. Some people lose control as soon as they encounter chocolate, and 100 grams of chocolate contains 600 calories. What does that mean? The calorie content of a bowl of white rice is about 200 calories, and a fried egg is about 136 calories. That is to say, 100 grams of chocolate has the same calorie content as eating five fried eggs. Do not eat more than 30 grams of chocolate a day.
3. Eating chocolate before exercise is more effective. Eating a little chocolate before exercise can increase the glycogen in the muscles, thus delaying fatigue and is also beneficial for the recovery of glycogen after long-term exercise. Since exercise is done immediately after eating, there is no need to worry about gaining weight.
Eating chocolate for weight loss is never a good method for long-term weight loss. As an auxiliary method for weight loss, it is indeed a consideration, but please don't treat chocolate as a snack, as this is absolutely not conducive to weight loss.
