How many times have the health freaks in your life made you feel bad for feeding your sweet desire for "no apparent reason"? We tend to hear endless lectures on how dessert should be eaten in moderation or not at all whenever we're caught nibbling on our favourite sweets. While we don't really need an excuse to consume desserts, some people are perplexed as to why we treat ourselves so well so often. Dessert enthusiasts, on the other hand, are unconcerned with the occasion or the season. Rather, it's all about nourishing the soul with cuisine that makes people feel as if they've finally arrived in Heaven on Earth.

Apart from this, dessert is an important part of the meal and there are many reasons why we should incorporate desserts in our meals.

Desserts Make People Happy

Have you ever taken a taste of your favourite dessert and instantly felt happier? That feeling is genuine.

According to studies, foods with a high natural percentage of carbs aid in the production of neurotransmitters (such as serotonin) that contribute to general emotional well-being in the brain and body.

Your mind and body will thank you for indulging in your favourite dessert. Take advantage of this scientific method by allowing yourself to enjoy your favourite sweet treat without feeling bad.

An Opportunity To Add Fruits To Your Meals

Fruit, as we all know, is an important element of your daily nutrient intake that keeps you healthy, robust, and disease-resistant. Unfortunately, you may not be getting enough of these healthy meal choices.

By adding raspberries and blueberries to a bowl of frozen Greek yoghurt, you can turn an already healthy dessert (high in protein and good fats) into a fruit-packed dinner. Don't be afraid to get creative; the possibilities are unlimited, from chocolate-covered strawberries to vanilla and mango smoothies.

Desserts Are Nutritious

Carbohydrates are necessary for the body, and low carb diets typically disregard this. While sweets aren't the healthiest source of carbohydrates, the correct indulgences can help to nourish both your body and mind.

In addition, sweets like pumpkin pie and dark chocolate are high in whole foods, which give essential vitamins, fibre, and antioxidants to your diet.

Covers Up The Side-Effects Of Dieting

Have you ever wondered why hospital patients are served jello or chocolate? When patients lose their appetite due to illness, sweet, low-nutrient carbohydrates are easier and more fun to ingest than any other form of food.

According to the National Eating Disorders Association, abruptly reducing your carbohydrate and sugar intake deprives your body of the glucose it requires for energy. Dieting can worsen sluggishness, mental dullness, and distraction.

All you dessert aficionados: that cake might just be the best meal choice you've made all day. Desserts add some variety to your meals while still emphasising the need of eating a well-balanced diet rich in whole grains, vegetables, and protein.

Desserts can sometimes make you healthier (if taken care of it properly and eaten moderately) as well as make you happier
