There hasnโ€™t been many weeks in my life where chocolate wasnโ€™t on the menu ๐Ÿซ๐Ÿคค

I often get the question is dark chocolate healthier than milk?

And while diet culture likes to make us think that dark chocolate comes with less guilt and more health benefits.

You would know if you have been following me for a while, food and gullt never belong on the same plate (or any plate for that matter) so what about health benefits??

Most of the health claims stem from the higher flavonoids content in dark chocolate compared to milk. Flavonoids have been attributed to increasing insulin sensitivity, improving blood flow and thereby lowering blood pressure.

Flavonoids are also found in many fruits and vegetables as well as nuts seeds and wine, hence a balanced diet will be rich in flavonoids.

So while yes, dark chocolate has the upper hand somewhat, it really is a small part of the puzzle.

Are you really eating the chocolate for the health benefits? ๐Ÿ‘‰ swipe for the qโ€™s I encourage to ask yourself before you pick your choccy. ๐Ÿซ

No there is no denying the dress is iconic ๐Ÿ˜ but why in this moment is Kimโ€™s weight loss to fit the dress or her thinner frame a subject up for discussion?

Why do we expect that two women with two very different body shapes would fit the same dress?

Why do we believe that we should change our bodies to fit clothing and not that clothing should fit us?

The answer to all of these questions is ๐Ÿ‘‰ Diet culture.

An iconic moment overshadowed by not so subtle hints of diet culture.
