Good news for chocolate lovers!

Chocolate is actually good for your heart. We have heard it for a while now, that a bit of dark chocolate is good for you, but now scientists at San Diego University have performed research confirming the statement.

They had 31 people eating 50 gr of dark chocolate each day for two weeks as they were doing the research. One group ate dark chocolate, one group ate dark chocolate that was heated, and the last group ate white chocolate.

The researcher could see significant results even though research time was very short. The group that ate dark chocolate had lower levels of blood sugar and bad cholesterol levels compared to the group that eat white chocolate and the group that ate the heated dark chocolate.

Yours in Health & Fitness,
