Hi,
Chocolate is the only ingredient that is its very own food
group.
Well not really—but it seems as if it should be. Powerfully
comforting, creamy, delicious—many people eat chocolate at least several times
a week.
Which begs the question…
Is Chocolate Good for
You?
The answer is both yes and no.
Chocolate has been used for centuries to treat bronchitis,
sexual malaise, fatigue, hangovers, anemia, depression, memory loss, high blood
pressure, poor eyesight, and more. It also helps release that feel-good
neurotransmitter—serotonin—in the brain.
But eat the wrong kind and you’ll get loads of sugar,
calories, and junky ingredients.
