5 Food Which Wrongly Considered As Not Healthy

Oh yeah i really wanted to talk about this topic coz these are my favourites and many of them adviced me please dont take dark chocolate, potato, ghee or honey or peanut , you will become obese. My thought is take them right and you will be healthy.
But i dont say it suits to everyone as each one of us has different health conditions, so think about your health conditions first.....

#1 Dark Chocolate

Dark chocolate are rich in antioxidants, fiber and contains flavanols. 
It is also considered good for the heart. But do not indulge in too much chocolate everyday.
It also suppresses your sweet tooth and hunger if taken a piece may be once in awhile.
 I do that when i feel bored and feel like munching something. 

#2 Peanuts

Peanuts have got their reputation back as a good food. I have grown up with peanuts,
 which i love to eat in any form. But i always consider the amount i take it.
 Peanuts are good sources of vitamin E, niacin, folate, protein and manganese.
 Peanuts have manounsaturated fat

#3 Potatoes

Potatoes are a very good source of vitamin B6 and a good source of potassium, copper, 
vitamin C, manganese,phosphorus, niacin, dietary fiber. 
Potatoes are rich in carbs so limit frequent intake.Take them without adding much oil or
 like frying you will get all of its benefits. may be gastric people can avoid this.

#4 Ghee

Ghee (Clarified Butter) is a staple in traditional Indian cooking and Ayurvedic medicine. 
Ghee is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids which is food for health
and makes your food extra tasty too.
yummy dhal with Ghee one of my favourite from childhood....:-) ....Feeling kiddish is it?

#5 Honey

Honey contains flavonoids, antioxidants which help reduce the risk of some cancers and 
heart disease. Help disorders such as ulcers and bacterial gastroenteritis.
I always try to take honey with my juices, green tea and sometimes just lick it little for
 sweet tooth.....
There is a constant tussle between scientist and food we eat. It is confusing for us with
 mixed opinions coming from independent research. There is no single organization across
 the world to authorize information on Food.

Americans follow the guidelines given by FDA and in general WHO also publishes
 guidelines. But none of them are accurate and their view is always challenged.
