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

This Is Why You Should Stop Eating Tilapia Immediately

-

Tilapia is one of the most favorite fish nowadays. It cannot be overcooked, has no bones and skin and is very cheap unlike the other fish in the market. However, this fish is not found in the wild. It is only produced in artificial fish farms. Thousands of this fish is harvested daily in the fish industry. The natural food of algae and lake plants is replaced by GMO soy and corn. The most important ingredient in fish – fish oil, cannot be found in this fish.



Reasons why tilapia is not good for your health

 1. This fish is very popular because of its availability and inexpensiveness. However, you must learn everything that can be possibly known about this fish before consuming it. The consumption of this fish can increase the inflammations that are going on in the body. The increased inflammations can lead to heart problems, asthma and many other serious diseases. The consumption of this fish is worse than eating bacon or a hamburger. We eat fish in order to consume omega-3 fatty acids that decrease the risks of having a heart attack, but this fish does the opposite – it increases the chances of having a heart attack.


2. Consuming farmed tilapia increase the risks of developing cancer by 10 times because it contains pollutants. The dangerous ingredients in these fish are often added with their feed. Actually, the feed that is given to farm raised fish contains chicken feces. Pig and duck feces are also one of the major feeds for farm fish.


 3. Tilapia also contains high amounts of pesticides and antibiotics. Farm owners give the fish antibiotics to protect them from diseases which can be easily spread since the farms are too crowded with fish. Pesticides are given to farm fish against sea lice, and this pesticide can even kill wild salmon if it consumes the pesticide accidentally.
