It's easy to eat twice as much chocolate as you normally do -- 10 g for Lindt, and about 20 g for Ghirardelli.agnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967177967469961883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-17860869442689163952009-03-25T19:47:00.000-04:002009-03-25T19:47:00.000-04:00Ghirardelli 86% cocoa chocolate is even better.

You can't see her skin clearly enough in the picture to make any judgments about it. Years ago, the fact that she is chubby might've made her look older than her early 20's, but today there are so many chubby young people that is no longer the case.<BR/><BR/>If the woman on the right is the same approximate age as her companion, then we might be onto something as she clearly looks to be over 30. Her age isn't given, however, so it's just speculation.<BR/><BR/>PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-919861330671890532009-03-25T09:22:00.000-04:002009-03-25T09:22:00.000-04:00The 2 girls choosing candy brings up something els...The 2 girls choosing candy brings up something else: the idea that low-fat diets are responsible for the obesity epidemic. While low-fat diets cannot be defended, the problem isn't (only) that people are following them, it's that so many people, like the young women in the photo, can't stay away from the garbage. No self-control.Dennis Manganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16934802482968611507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-56098353553543416112009-03-24T16:30:00.000-04:002009-03-24T16:30:00.000-04:00Carnosine (available at www.lef.org) can reduce gl...Carnosine (available at www.lef.org) can reduce glycation.
