Is Chocolate OKAY to Eat?

Hi ,

The smell of chocolate is definitely in the air. Which brings up the point - why does chocolate make us women feel so DARN GOOD?

Well, it's not a difficult question to answer. Chocolate has an uplifting (and addictive!) effect for a few reasons:

1. It helps the body make serotonin, the feel-good neurotransmitter that regulates mood, sleep and appetite;

2. The high sugar content boosts energy levels, giving a quick lift and good feeling, even if the high doesn't last very long; and

3. It allows more L-tryptophan, a mood-regulating amino acid, to enter the brain, which also makes us feel good.

So, is it OKAY to eat chocolate?

Now that you're pregnant, you're probably wondering how you're going to handle your usual indulgence - right?

The good news is that chocolate contains both magnesium and iron, two vitamins that pregnant women need a lot of (in fact, if you're craving A LOT of chocolate it might mean that you're anemic). It's also been known to help women with morning sickness (go figure!).

The bad news is that even though chocolate contains protein, fat, magnesium and iron - it's not a good enough source of nutrients OR a good enough excuse to indulge (especially if you want to lose your weight post-pregnancy with relative ease!).

And one more thing, if you're struggling with heartburn, chocolate is certainly NOT your friend. Why? Because chocolate is a natural laxative that relaxes the upper passage into the stomach and allows the acidic contents to rise up and irritate the lower end of the esophagus.

So, my recommendation is to go ahead and give yourself a treat but DON'T overindulge.

Eat only the chocolate that you REALLY love and savor ever bite. In other words, be picky and don't get stuck eating chocolate that's not at the top of your list of favorites!

Changing your chocolate ways NOW will not only help you DURING your pregnancy, but it WILL also set you up for an EASIER and QUICKER post-pregnancy weight loss.
