Each one of us has been told what to eat, what not to, what to drink, and what not to. And we were sick of listening to it. But did you know that the chocolate that our parents once told us to avoid actually staves off cancer? To make your day better, here are a few things that people always tell are bad for but are actually good and have healthy aspects to them. Recent studies have claimed, though with a disclaimer, that indulging in "bad stuff" is actually good. You can direct them to this list when someone whines at you in the future. So, go ahead and indulge in those "bad-for-you-remedies". In moderation though!
Consuming beer in moderation lowers risk of head disease, stroke, and mental decline. Brewer's yeast that is present in beer is nutritious as it contains: magnesium, selenium, potassium, phosphorus, biotin, and B vitamins, which is why beer is referred to as "liquid bread". Studies have also found low-alcohol beer to contain strong anti cancer properties. What makes it even better is that "beer belly" is not due to consuming beer rather due to overeating or lack of exercise.
Chocolate:
Chocolate has been concluded as wonder drug due to its appearance as a "cure-all" coupled with delicious taste and mood-lifting characteristics. Cocoa in fact, perks up the circulatory system, kindles the brain, prevents diarrhea, coughs and sometimes maybe an anti cancer agent. Studies have indicated that melting chocolate in your mouth stimulates and increases brain activity and heart rates. Eating small moderate quantities of chocolate controls and reduces cholesterol and the chances of a heart attack.
Red Wine:
It has polyphenols that reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. It's also an effective anti-bacterial agent against strains of Streptococcus which help reduce infections. A few ranges of wine have extra health benefits; Cabernet Sauvignon appears to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Wine is also a chock full of antioxidants which play a huge role in the health of the human body. The wines found to have the greatest benefits are found in the South of France and the Sardinia region of Italy.
Smoking:
There are numerous therapeutic uses of nicotine or smoking. Smokers are at a lower risk to need surgery to provide extra blood to their heart after an angioplasty, the danger of ulcerative colitis is reduced, and it even interferes with the development of Kaposi's sarcoma (a type of cancer of the lymphatic endothelium). Smoking also reduces allergic asthma. Smokers have a dramatically reduced risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
Coffee:
Caffeine consists of a muscle relaxant that is beneficial for people with bronchial problems – it can ease the symptoms of asthma. Caffeine discharges certain fatty acids in to the blood stream that become a useful source of fuel for muscles. It's only serious side-effect is that too much caffeine leads to small amount of body-weight loss – a danger if you are anorexic.
Ice-Cream:
Ice cream has a low glycemic index which means that it releases sugar slowly and keeps you satisfied for a longer period of time than a high GI food - you are less likely to splurge after eating ice-cream. Ice-cream is made of milk which contains many vital nutrients and vitamins. It also contains other nutrients like biotin; iodine, potassium, selenium, vitamins a, b12, D, and K. Studies have shown a link between milk consumption and a lowered risk of arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, and colorectal cancer.
