Hi. i'm Jalou and I love eating chocolates. Sometimes it gives me cavities and sometimes the pleasure of eating one.

Are Chocolates Good or Bad for our Health?

 

Let's focus on Dark Chocolate:

Dark Chocolates are loaded with antioxidants

Dark chocolate contains hefty amounts of disease-fighting flavenoids, antioxidants also found in red wine and many fruits and vegetables. In fact, it appears to have more flavenoids than any other food.

I have read recently that chocolates also helps us through PMS. ;)

and through research:

A small study from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign found that daily consumption of cocoa flavanol-containing dark chocolate lowered cholesterol and improved blood pressure.

While the reasearch was funded by chocolate manufacturer Mars, Inc., the study was double-blinded and peer reviewed.
