@edwardbutka4750 2 ай бұрын

@drekberg I really enjoy your work and am grateful for your contributions. I believe there is one area of the "Lindt chocolate profile," that makes it a poor choice. I have read from other sources that the "alkali process" that Lindt uses in making their chocolates significantly reduces the flavanol content in their product. Was the information I had obtained incorrect?

@edwardbutka4750 2 ай бұрын

@@jeremybalizenter2896 LOL, I wish I would have read your reply before I made my post. But, what I have read from other sources makes me suspect in eating Lindt Dark Chocolate. That alkali process actually helps the "taste profile" of the chocolate. If I was not looking to eat the dark chocolate for the flavanol bang, Lindt is a quality tasting dark chocolate option.

Lindt 90% cocoa is my normal chocolate bar with 7g sugar in the 100g bar, so two squares is just 1.4g of sugar. Another I like, though it's a little harder to find, is MONTEZUMA'S Absolute Black which is 100% cocoa solids.That's it. Nothing else is listed on the pack under 'ingredients'. Zero sugar. It's perhaps a bit of an acquired taste but no one else in the household steals my chocolate! 😉

It has so many health benefits as well to the point that i'm not even sure how true these are. So apperently dark chocolate boosts your exercise performance, it has antioxidants, it lowers blood pressure it helps balance the LDL and HDL cholestelor, boosts mood (and unlike caffeine it dosen't make you more anxious if you already are before) and it even helps with memory (so sort of a natural nootropic?). Of course all these are from the cocoa content but how true are these claims? i'd really like to know because it sounds too good to be true.

You can also make your own freezer chocolate which consists of raw cocoa powder with coconut oil a little bit of coconut sugar( much lower glycemic, wont spike insulin) cinnamon and you can add nuts and coconut and laid in the freezer and have little bit every now then. I will others things like maca, goji berries etc.

@robertoperaza2683 2 жыл бұрын

I second that recipe is just I dont follow you on the coconut sugar part. Sugar is sugar no matter what. The super high process to obtain is pretty the same, its not a nature made product. Plus remember your body does not have sugar receptors but sweet receptors so yes, is going to trigger a signal to the brain some 'sugar's is coming even if it's not which brings us to the insulin response. Marketing is strong on the new trend of KETO safe? products ...

I buy 100% and slowly melt it with a bit of coconut oil and either a small amount of coconut sugar or monk sugar. In summer I will drizzle that over berries or frozen banana or I add some nuts and seeds to the melted chocolate and allow it to firm up again. This way I get a far healthier treat with less sweetness and a healthier form of sugar than a bar with higher amounts of white sugar.

Usually, when talking about cakes, cookies, chocolate and other sweets, if it tastes good, it's most likely unhealthy :) I like chocolate a lot (however, I do not eat very often), but I have never managed to enjoy dark chocolate, including the top brands, like Lindt. I would rather have a dark coffee without any sugar. The diet helps if you have some health condition and really have to avoid certain things, but, when that is not the case, if the diet makes you hate the food you eat and eating in general, then it harms more than it helps. I had to take a diet several times and at times I really got depressed seeing foods in stores, or when people invited me to dinner and I had to avoid certain things they were serving. If the food doesn't harm you, then the negative thoughts about it will do it instead. You have to enjoy what you eat... like life!

And if the number feels ick, you can always switch up to a bar of milk chocolate or a different treat altogether. “There are many proven benefits of dark chocolate on health, so the potential harm from the presence of lead and/or cadmium needs to be weighed against these benefits,” says Castle. “Moderation is probably the best advice for dark chocolate lovers. A varied diet with plenty of fiber and nutrients will also offer some protection.”

Me and my son have 72% dark chocolate everyday. Between 37 to 75 grams off it. Is this too much regarding the amount of iron or is it ok because it's not iron that comes from a supplement?

What happens when u have sugar at about 10g while doing keto and IF on your window time of eating? If u fit this 10g in the allotted 20-30g of carbs thats allowed. Will that sugar still kick u out of Ketosis?? I hope u could reply. Thanks.

We are kindred spirits. The Lindt 85% is my go to if I want a dessert after a good meal. Pairs well with a little strong dry red wine.

What about stevia + dark chocolate 🍫?

I normally add 1 square of Lindt 95% or 100% dark chocolate to my cup of coffee ☕ daily. 😋

What about theobromine in chocolate? I've heard it's toxic.

What about unsweetened Baker's Chocolate? Tastes great when you eat it with nuts or coconut cream.

I eat about squares of saturated fat per day, I guess my only concern is the saturated fat. What’s your opinion on that?

Mmmm. Dark Chocolate! It may not be addictive due to sugar content, but the higher % chocolate also increases the caffeine content, and the caffeine is addictive too! Ask me if I'm addicted to dark chocolate. Yes, I am. I want to quit, but I keep buying it! I like the 80% Dark from Equal Exchange.

I have a question,, the 85% Lindt is what i get,, have you noticed that 85% has no Alkali but 95% and up does, what's up and does it matter?

What about lead and cadmium? The darker the chocolate is, the more of these are present in it.. I've stopped eating it because of this..

I just add half tea spoon cocoa powder to my tea to get the benefits instead of eating sugary chocolate.

Except the content of lead and cadmium negates the benifits. Green or black tea has flavonoids, might be a better alternative.

What about the lead and cadmium that is in Lindt the 85% is what I was having, until I read about the lead and cadmium in it, so I've stopped having it it's a shame because I liked it, just one square a day is all I had.

I am a Valor 82% lover. Same as many others, I used to despise dark chocolate :) A single serving is enough to last me a month!

I eat 100% Ghiradelli chocolate, and it definitely is easier following a keto lifestyle. There's one surprising thing about it though, and I don't know if it's like this for everyone: It's actually a really powerful aphrodisiac. I'm hoping that's a healthy thing lol
