Chocolate Helps Dieting- Nutracheck UK

Oct. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- The results of a nationwide YouGov* weight loss survey commissioned by multi-award winning online diet system Nutracheck reveals that 63% of the UK believes that weight loss requires cutting out certain types of food – e.g the fun ones! In preparation for National Chocolate Week (October 14-20), Nutracheck’s nutritionist is dispelling the myth, so chocoholics worldwide can rejoice in their cocoa glory!

An overwhelming majority (86%) of nutracheck.co.uk dieters who lost enough weight to improve their health did so whilst continuing to eat chocolate and other treats. An astounding 91% of members* who lost 10% of their body weight did so whilst still eating chocolate as part of a healthy balanced diet.

Janet Aylott – Nutrition Scientist andNutracheck expert - says “Extensive research has proven that diets centred around food elimination are much more likely to fail. The key is to take a more relaxed approach and to have a little of what you like. Nutracheck’s calorie-counting food diary is the ideal way to monitor food intake without denying pleasures or feeling hungry”
