THE PROCESS OF MAKING CHOCOLATE

The process of making chocolate is very complex. First of all cocoa beans are selected and cleaned. After that, the cocoa beans are roasted to remove their skins better.
Later, the beans go through a different type of toasting. They are toasted for a few minutes at between 110 and 120 degrees Celsius to remove any water and sourness in them.
Also the beans go through a roller that makes them into a powder and the result of this process is cooked and transformed into the chocolate that everyone knows and eats in their homes.

CHOCOLATE

Everyone knows what chocolate is, they know that there are many types of it too: White chocolate, milk chocolate, plain chocolate, chocolate with almonds, and so on, but most people do not know that it is exotic, an aphrodisiac and it is a stimulant.
Chocolate comes from cocoa and many people love it. 
It can cause some problems that we must know about. For example, if you eat a lot of it, you could become addicted, and you are going to be very anxious. Also it has got a lot of calories, above all white chocolate, because it is the fattest chocolate.
What is more, chocolate in teenagers can become a real problem, because it causes aannein excess and addiction. Many specialists think that a lot of teenager’s behaviour changes so much if they stop eating chocolate for a few days.

GUMMY BEARS CAN REDUCE CAVITIES

According to a study from United States, maltitol, a new sugar substitute can help prevent cavities in children.  
Some doctors from the USA decided to give thirty 8 years old children gummy bears with different amounts of xylitol and maltitol. They divided the children in 3 groups, and gave the first group 15.6g of xylitol a day, the second group ate 11.7g of xylitol a day, and the third group ate 44.7g a day of maltitol, for six weeks.
When the experiment finished, experts discovered that, all the children in the experiment reduced the amount of bacteria that produces cavities and their teeth looked whiter.
 Because of this experiment, now, most chewing gum or gummy contain these sugar substitutes, and make the sweets better for our dental health, but we must be careful with xylitol, because it can hurt our stomach and make us loose a lot of weight.
So, if you want eat some sweets, choose gummy bears with xylitol or maltitol, I think it is a good decision for you.
