Question 1: Is the consumption of chocolate totally bad for a weight watcher?
Answer: [/b]Cacao (cocoa) beans are high in beneficial antioxidants. However, they’re also more than 50% fat. And we never eat these cacao beans raw. We add sugar, fat, and milk. Like other things, a little dark chocolate from time to time is okay, but eating it every day is a bad idea.

[b]Question 2: I sometimes take beer and wine even though am a weight watcher, is it good?
Answer: There’s research to indicate that drinking one serving per day of beer or wine may be beneficial in reducing heart attacks. Other studies show a definite link between alcohol consumption in any amount and an increase in certain cancers in women. Also, as we mentioned earlier, alcohol lowers inhibitions, which often leads to more eating.

Question 3: What’s the difference between polyunsaturated fat and trans fat?
Answer: Trans fats are detrimental to health because they increase your “bad” cholesterol and lower “good” cholesterol levels in your body. Trans fats promote blockage of your arteries, thus increasing your risk for heart attack, stroke, and other vascular diseases. Trans fat is called “partially hydrogenated oil” or “shortening” in the ingredient list. Polyunsaturated fat, on the other hand, is healthy and helps prevent blood vessel disease. Vegetable oils are an excellent source of these beneficial fats, provided they’ve not been hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated.

Question 4: I always feel unstable when I take sweet, coffee and sometimes alcohol. Why is it so?
Answer: Sweets, alcohol, and coffee contain irritating acids and they also stimulate the stomach to over-produce its own acid. This causes stomach acids to get up into the esophagus where they don’t belong. This problem is accelerated if you overeat or you’re overweight. Lying down too soon after you eat also contributes to the problem. Stomach acid in the esophagus is called heartburn or sour stomach. Thus, the antacids.
You feel unstable when you consume these stuffs because your body is telling you to quit eating or drinking the offending foods, especially within 4 hours before you lay down to sleep.

Question 5: Does Sodium serve the same as salt?
Answer: Most Americans consume at least twice the daily maximum recommended amount of sodium, which is 10 to 20 times the amount necessary to sustain life. Most of this sodium is from salt which is added to processed foods. Sodium raises blood pressure, a major risk factor for heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, and blindness.

[b]Question 6: Which of the natural sweeteners are recommendable?
Answer: [/b]Honey is a readily available natural sweetener. Agave nectar, made from the agave cactus, is also an excellent substitute. These sweeteners are much better for you than table sugar, but they should still be used in moderation.
