9 Health Benefits of Chocolate

Superfoods don't just come from your supermarket's produce aisle. In fact those chocolate candy bars next to the gummy bears now qualify. Study after study proves that dark chocolate—sweet, rich, and delicious—is good for more than curing a broken heart. The secret behind its powerful punch is cacao, also the source of the sweet's distinct taste. Packed with healthy chemicals like flavonoids and theobromine, this little bean is a disease-killing bullet. The only problem? Cacao on its own is bitter, chalky, nasty stuff. Enter milk, sugar, and butter—good for your taste buds, not always good for your health. Besides adding calories, these can dilute the benefits of cacao. So snack smart: Stick to healthy chocolate with at least 70 percent cacao (or cocoa, which is cacao in its roasted, ground form). As long as the content is that high, says Mary Engler, Ph.D., a professor of physiological nursing at the University of California at San Francisco, you can reap the be...

5 Scientific Reasons Proving Why Women Live Longer Than Men. 5 Killed Me, LOL!

-

it’s already scientifically acknowledged that men live shorter than women, on average. They don’t hesitate to put themselves in risky situations and, on top of that, they seem to have so much fun with it. In the past, it was believed that men tend to live less because they work more and have to bring financial stability to the family. However, nowadays, men and women both live stressful lives and work hard on a daily basis. The evidence stays, though. They still live less, in spite of being in a similar environment. These images could eplain a lot.

 3. Because they are so creative, that nothing should get in the way of a relaxing afternoon. Not even a backhoe

 4. Because gravity is only a minor issue to those who have the power of will

5. Because when the environment is adverse, they have each other

Just when you think it was cool to show your little one some TLC, here comes the fun police. As much as you want to love up on your kid, experts now say kissing your child on the mouth is bad because it's "too sexual." if you can stop laughing for a second, you'll see that Dr. Charlotte Reznick, author of The Power of Your Child's Imagination: How to Transform Stress and Anxiety Into Joy And Success, is trying to be serious. She believes a "kiss on the lips can be stimulating" and that might confuse a child. Dr. Reznick even goes as far to remind us how lips are an erogenous zone. "If mommy kisses daddy on the mouth and vice versa, what does that mean, when I, a little girl or boy, kiss my parents on the mouth?" Dr. Charlotte questions.  So what's a parent supposed to do when their child walks up (or stumbles, depending on their current level of coordination) and tries to plant one on the kisser?

Ladies, if you’re interested in having a quality relationship with your man, or finding a man to have a quality relationship with, read on! Always remember that men and women are different. So to attract a man, and keep him, it is imperative that you understand men (especially your own man!). As mentioned in the book, Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man, many women are clueless about how men think. A man desires a woman he can respect and trust- a woman of good character and integrity. Depending upon your goal and behavior, you can become for him the “marrying type” or the “plaything”.  Men are more likely to fall in love with a modest woman – modest in behavior, dress, and in the way she talks. They may lust after the “hot” woman, but she is not likely to be the one to meet his mom.  A smile is always an excellent start to any relationship. So, if smiling does not come naturally to you, start practicing and perfecting your smile. Your intent will show too, so pract...
