Workout and weight loss on wheels- Valentines Day & your diet

Valentines Day brings to mind boxes of chocolates or strawberries dipped in chocolate. While the word "fattening" may come to mind, that is not necessarily the case. Dark chocolate can do the following: reduces body mass; prevents blood clots; it may prevent cancer; it doesn’t ruin complexion; it can help you stay thin; it can ward off strokes, heart attacks, and diabetes; it can control coughs; it improves blood flow; it strengthens the brain; and it makes you live longer. If you add strawberries to the mix, you have the following: a food that is nutrient rich in antioxidants; it boosts immunity against disease; it promotes eye health; it helps to prevent cancer; it helps reduce the onset of wrinkles; it fights cholesterol; it reduces inflammation; it helps with digestion; it aids in weight management; and it promotes prenatal health. Valentine's Day does not have to be about food at all. Roses are also associated with Valentines Day and they are purely for show.
