We all want a piece of chocolate The important thing to remember is picking the right piece of chocolate. It is not milk chocolate It is DARK CHOCOLATE
Dark chocolate is loaded with anti-oxidants and nutrients. It has many health benefits. One of the best health benefits of eating dark chocolate is the improvement in cognition and memory. A study compared dark versus milk chocolate Those that ate dark chocolate had a better mood, scored better on memory tests and improved cognition
Since dark chocolate is loaded with anti oxidants, it can fight free radical damage thus decreasing the incidence of chronic disease. We all need to fight the destruction of our bodies from free radicals. So if you are not a fan of green juice—get in line to buy your dark chocolate.
As a cardiologist I am especially interested in the studies that have shown that dark chocolate can reduce inflammation especially in the arteries. This can thus lower blood pressure and increase blood flow. There are studies revealing that dark chocolate can reduce blood sugar . Dark chocolate can help increase insulin sensitivity ( which means the body was better able to process blood sugar)
EAT DARK CHOCOLATE
Until tomorrow…
