It doesn’t have to be hell to be healthy

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

If you think that losing weight is all about deprivation, celery sticks and odd looking (and tasting) detox concoctions then it’s time to think again. The fact is, it does not have to be hell to be healthy.

Here at Ador, you know that we love food that looks good and tastes good, but also happens to have added benefits, like our chocolate, which contains pine nut extracts that help to keep you feeling full.

This week we heard about another chocolate available in Spain that contains an algae called spirulina, which its makers also say helps to keep you slim. It sounds great and is said to taste nice.

The slightly green tinge coming from the algae may not appeal to everyone, but naturally, it is horses for courses and we are pleased that other companies are helping to champion the concept that foods normally perceived as being at best ‘naughty’ and at worst ‘bad’ can actually be enjoyed in moderation and without guilt.

The fact is, losing pounds doesn’t mean that you should eat stuff that looks, or tastes weird.
