Chapter 216 - Playing with Rachel

"Yeah, it sure looked like you are! All those girls you danced before were your girlfriends!?" Asked Rachel.

"Why!? are you getting jealous of them!?" asked Kenichi with a teasing smirk on his face.

"hmnp! As if? I was just asking to know how many girls you are playing with!" replied Rachel.

"Hey! I don't play with girls, you can ask any of my girls and the only answer you will get is how good I am, whether it's the time I spend with them or in the bed" Kenichi stated as he led Rachel while dancing. The starlight was upon them making Rachel happy who loved the attention.

"Quite confident are we!" stated Rachel but still smiled after looking at the smirk on Kenichi's face as if saying 'You don't know anything'

"You know what we make a good combo" grinned Rachel as she closed in to give him a Kiss. Only for Kenichi to twirl her around once again as Kenichi said "That we do! but if you use things like kisses to stay in the spotlight then it isn't good."

"Hey! What type of women do you think I am!?" asked Rachel.

"A women who will do anything to stay in the spotlight whether it's to kill a person or strip your clothes" replied Kenichi after which he let go of Rachel and moved towards the table where her friends were sitting to eat something, leaving Rachel alone to contemplate on what he just said.

"Look Kenichi there are so many sweets available," said Miu from her seat.

That girl was none other then Chikage Kushinada and looking at her face Kenichi couldn't help but think about his little sister Honoka who also loved sweets but unlike Chikage she didn't have to force herself to not eat them.

"You all eat! I will be back in a minute" said Kenichi as he stood up from his seat and walked towards Chikage.

Looking at Kenichi and Chikage Saeko easily understood what he was going to do an anyone with a brain can see Chikage drooling over the sweets but not moving towards them.

"Sigh.... he doesn't know when to stop himself" stated Saeko as she turned her head back and started talking to Bobbi and other girls once again.

"Hello, Chikage! Why are you standing here? If you want those deserts you should have them!" said Kenichi as he stood right beside her.

"Sweets and Deserts are not healthy for our body!" replied Chikage regaining her emotional face.

"What!? That's a b.u.t.t load of a lie! You should know that I can name 5 health benefits that come from sweets and deserts" stated Kenichi, "You don't have to stop yourself from eating them until you are eating them in the limit"

"Name them!?" Chikage asked

"Huh!! Sorry!?" Kenichi said.

"Name the benefits of eating sweets and Deserts?" stated Chikage.

"Oh! OK, then 1. Desserts are packed with nutrients.

There's a reason why your body craves certain delicious desserts. Low carb diets often overlook the fact that carbohydrates are an essential nutrient for the body. While desserts may not be the healthiest form of carbohydrates, the right indulgences can fuel your body and mind.

Plus, sweets such as pumpkin pie or dark chocolate contain rich sources of whole foods that provide necessary vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants to your diet. That's the first point" said Kenichi as he placed a piece of pumpkin pie on a plate and gave it to Chikage.

Chikage took the pumpkin pie from Kenichi and looked at him and asked: "What about the other benefits!?"

"Why don't you eat the pie first! and I will tell you the rest while you are eating it" replied Kenichi hearing which Chikage nodded her head and took the first bite.

The moment she took a bite from the pie Chikage couldn't help but broke into smile seeing which Kenichi also smiled as well.

"2. Desserts make you happier…And you are proof that I am right!

You just took a bite from this desert and broke into a smile! Why? because you felt happier right!. That feeling is real.

According to The Nest, foods that have a naturally high percentage of carbohydrates help the brain and body produce chemicals (such as serotonin) that contribute to overall emotional well-being.

3. Eating dessert can actually improve your weight control.

Cravings for sweets are one of the biggest causes of diet failure. When the average a.d.u.l.t quits eating desserts altogether, they may see improvement in their short term fitness goals.

However, studies have shown that a.d.u.l.ts who indulge in dessert but eat an otherwise nutritious diet have a greater chance of producing long term success in weight loss. This is true because the body will respond to small amounts of desserts that satisfy cravings by satiating its own appetite for them.

4. Desserts offer a convenient opportunity to incorporate more fruit into your diet.

Fruit, as we all know by now, is an essential part of your daily intake of nutrients that keep you healthy, strong, and immune to certain diseases. Unfortunately, you may not be getting the necessary dose of these powerful food options.

Adding raspberries and blueberries to a bowl of frozen greek yogurt makes an already healthy dessert (rich in protein and healthy fats) into a positively vital meal for your daily fruit intake. Don't be afraid to get creative; from chocolate-covered strawberries to vanilla and mango smoothies, the options are all scrumptious and endless.

5. Desserts can remedy the negative side effects of dieting.

Ever wonder why they serve jello or chocolate pudding to hospital patients? When patients lose their appetite due to illness, it is easier and more enjoyable to consume sugary, low-nutrient carbohydrates than any other type of food.

According to the National Eating Disorders Association, suddenly decreasing your intake of carbs and sugar deprives your body of the necessary glucose needed for energy. Dieting can actually increase feelings of sluggishness, mental fog, and distraction.
