Top NYC doctor eats THIS dessert to stay healthy! | – Times of India
Imagine gorging on a lip-smacking dessert regularly and boosting your health! Sounds like a dream, right? Well, it’s not. You can now eat dessert and improve your health and overall wellness.
We have always associated dessert with guilt. But you no longer have to. Dessert could be healthy. In fact, it can help you feel and be healthy. Dr. Tim Tiutan, a board-certified internal medicine physician based in New York City, who treats cancer patients, has now shared his favourite dessert recipe.“As a doctor, I’m always looking for healthier dessert options, and this one only takes minutes to prepare,” Dr. Tim said in a video shared on Instagram. And it’s dark chocolate blueberry walnut dessert bites. Four-ingredient dessert
The dessert is as simple as it can get. It only has four ingredients. “All four of these ingredients are great sources of antioxidants and provide anti-inflammatory effects. Not to mention, they taste so good,” the doctor said.
- Blueberries
- Dark chocolate
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Tree nuts
Recipe
You need half a cup of blueberries, half a cup of dark chocolate, 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil, and tree nuts. Wash the blueberries and pat them dry. Mix olive oil with dark chocolate and either double-boil or microwave for 30 seconds. Now add in the blueberries, and place them on parchment paper in bite-sized pieces. Add crushed walnuts on top, freeze for 10 minutes, and then enjoy.You can also use coconut oil instead of olive oil, but the former has much higher saturated fat content. Nuts could be anything. “I had walnuts in my house, so that’s what I used, but almonds, pecans, pistachios, and cashews all are great options too and have great health benefits!” the doctor said. The best thing about this recipe is that it has three key ingredients from the Mediterranean diet: Olive oil, blueberries, and olive oil.
Olive oil is linked with boosting brain health. A study found that people who consumed more than half a tablespoon of olive oil per day had a 28% lower risk of dying from dementia compared with those who never or rarely consumed olive oil. Another review of studies has found that olive oil rich in monounsaturated fat can reduce the risk of stroke and heart disease. A 2019 study found that people with pre-diabetes who took 55 mL of oleanolic acid-enriched olive oil every day were less likely to develop diabetes. Blueberries and nuts are also linked with lowering the risk of heart disease, dementia, and cancer.“These ingredients have so many health benefits, including providing antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. However, always eat in moderation!” Dr. Tim said.
