Healthy Chocolate?
Filed under: add to del.icio.us
Scientists at the Harvard University School of Public Health examined 136 studies on cocoa and found that it boosts heart health due to its antioxidant chemicals known as flavonoids. The studies show that eating chocolate can lower blood pressure and bad cholesterol levels. Study subjects who ate white chocolate experienced no benefits, since white chocolate lacks cocoa -- and therefore flavonoids.
