Hot chocolate
While you may already know
that hot chocolate is unhealthy, you probably are not aware of just how
ridiculous the ingredients can be.
In
general, the hot chocolate that you can buy in coffee shops will be
exceptionally bad for you in all possible senses.
For example,
a medium Gloria Jeans hot chocolate made on full cream milk NO whipped cream
has 30 grams of sugar, let’s make that number a little more real…! THIS HOT
CHOCOLATE HAS 6 TEASPOONS OF SUGAR AND 250 CALORIES
In
addition, this drink contains 22g of saturated fat (which is more than you
should have in an entire day), and 85g of sugar. To top it all off, the 380mg
of sodium makes the Salted Hot Chocolate entirely unsuitable for those who are
concerned about heart health and maintaining low blood pressure.
While this particular hot chocolate is
an extreme example, its nutritional content should serve as a wakeup call about
the true nature of these sweet drinks.
There are healthy snack options out there...promise!!!
